The place was very nice for the price. Very clean and organized. The biggest downside was its location, far away from the metro and sky train. However, there were tuk-tuks outside the property that can take you anywhere if you are willing to pay for it. Internet worked well throughout the whole property. The staff was communicative but the services were a little pricey. The price of 2 loads of laundry was half of our stay.

Solid Stay, Good Guesthouse
I was pleased with my stay at Sawatdee Guesthouse. The facilities are very clean and the location is convenient, within easy walking distance of the Khao San Road area and an quick tuktuk ride to other sights. The rooms are simple but are decently sized and the bed is comfortable. I stayed in a fan-cooled, no A/C room, though, and that was a mistake on my part. I definitely recommend this property. You can probably find cheaper places to stay if you’re on a super-tight budget, but it’s worth a few extra bucks for the cleanliness and comfort of Sawatdee Guesthouse.

Sawatdee is very clean and service is very good. The location is near Thewet Market and the bus stop making it accessible to food, transpo, and other necessities.

The people are so nice and speak English, and the hotel restaurant is so delicious well priced. Also, the room is exactly perfect for a budget traveler. I stayed in the air con room and it was nice, cool, simple, and comfy. One day I was so tired and my feet hurt so I spent all day in my room and it was perfect. This hotel is also in a great location.

We had an excellent stay at Sawatdee Guesthouse. It is conveniently located a 5 minute walk away from the river boats; the people were charming and very helpful; and it was spotlessly clean.

チャオプラヤ川に近く、電車では行けません。タイの土地勘はないですが、私はパヤタイ駅からタクシー(渋滞にもよるが75Bくらい)で行っていました。三大寺院(ワットアルン・ポー・プラケオ)には近くのフェリー乗り場から川を下って簡単に行けました。ローカルな市場などを散策できて良かったです。 スタッフはフレンドリーな方もいれば無愛想な方もいました。洗濯を頼んだらとても面倒くさそうな顔をされたためそれ以降は頼んでません(120B) 部屋は個室でベッドと鏡、小さなテーブルのみで、トイレやシャワーは共同です。エアコンがなく扇風機のみだったのは結構辛かったです。中から2重で鍵を掛けることができます。シャワーはお湯も出るし、この宿泊で特に目立った不自由はありませんでした。

Nous avons aime la proximité du Khao Praya. En revanche les chambres ne sont pas du tout insonorisées, notre chambre etait situee entre la douche commune et une autre chambre. Chambre petite et non conforme au confort attendu.
