nice stay, excellent service

temple view friendly staff
the location was excellent. i had a temple view of wat pho. the staff was really friendly and helpful. there is no lift so the staff carried my big suitcases up two floors.
the room was very small and lacked comfort accessories. i noticed the absence of shelves and hangers! i wish there was more space for my belongings.
Dining
8/10
the restaurant area is lovely. it presents a great view of wat arun across the water. breakfast was included in the price. the menu says it comes with a lot of extras though i didn't receive them.
