“Perfect for Yala”
Simple, clean, exactly what we needed and expected from a budget hotel - no frills just value! Lovely and polite owner, super easy to communicate in English via WhatsApp about anything we needed or had questions about. After doing a full day safari we were able to quickly refresh and have dinner there before moving on to our next destination too all within the price of one night (dinner and small extra charge). The AC and ceiling fan worked great for us too.

“Wonderful stay right outside Yala park”
Staff were incredibly welcoming, the room was comfy and the aircon was great. We had dinner and breakfast there and both were delicious. WiFi also worked great Only cold water, but I really didn’t mind. The roof fan is only connected to one of the roof tiles, so was a little wobbly and noisy, but the aircon was so great we didn’t need it I did get woken up at 4am to the dogs barking for a long time, but maybe a missed a chance to get up and see some intruding wildlife. We did see lots of monkeys in the trees right outside in the morning and lots of peacocks

“Good optimum stay.”
Property is nice and scenic. Very natural and peaceful. Staff is very supportive. Allowed us use of kitchen which helped a lot as we had kid traveing with us, who prefer home cooked food. It is a good rest house with all basic amenities. Overall homely place.
