It’s nice but it’s a bit run down. I’d say it’s more a 3 star with nice service. Breakfast could be better but we didn’t prepay so only did it once. It is secluded but close enough to easily get a ride. Staff are great which we find to be true all over Thailand

Badly in need of renovations. Dirty shower curtains, hard and old mattress—very uncomfortable. Staff are nice and try to manage as much as they can

Bed was hard our back hurts. The room was dusty and misty. The curtains were torn. Two pillows were thin. Not enough lights in the room or outside area.

Do not pick this hotel based on the photos. As others have mentioned. The property today does not match those images. It is very run down. Our room had a broken shower head that leaked water everywhere. Plus you could not change the temperature on either the shower or hand basin. It came out boiling hot. Its a shame as the property has so much potential if it was maintained and upgraded. Having said that if you are aware of what you are getting, then its not the worst place to stay. Staff are lovely and super helpful.

Hôtel atypique mais loin du centre de Chiang rai. Location de scooter obligatoire sinon vous être cloîtré à l hôtel et si comme pour notre séjour la piscine est hors service , vous êtes bon pour rester dans votre chambre..
chambre propre mais infrastructures vieillissantes

Cosas buenas, otras no tan buenas.
El lugar es increíble, esta hermoso; sin embargo, está tan grande que le falta muchísimo mantenimiento. Adicional a las cabañas tienen un hotel que está abandonado y no da una buena impresión. El cuarto pequeño, pero bonito. El servicio del lobby bueno. El restaurante bastante malo, tanto la comida y peor el serivicio, es sumamente incómodo que en un hotel no hablen inglés y en el restautante cero inglés, no pudimos comunicarnos. El lugar literal sirve únicamente para dormir.
