A budget-friendly option :)
We initially chose this property as we also stayed at the lyf hotel during our trip to Singapore last year and was extremely satisfied with its condition and facilities, especially considering its price.
Overall vibes:
The Bangkok location is similar to the Singapore one, in terms of the interior decor and vibes. However, we found that the Singapore location had more amenities (e.g. gym), which was not a huge issue for us since we were just staying for a few days.
Minor issues:
What bothered us a bit was the amount of insects in our room. We found a bunch of dead ants beside our bed while the hotel mentioned that they had just gone through pest control on the day of our check-in. We also found some live ants crawling around the frame of the bed, and some bugs (they looked like fruit flies?) flying around in room. However, we do understand that this is largely due to the climate differences in Bangkok (versus Singapore), so we didn't make a huge deal out of it. We also saw a few stains on the walls.
Overall:
Despite the above mentioned points, overall, we were still satisfied with our stay given the cost of the hotel. Here are some other pros about the hotel:
- Staff members were extremely friendly and helpful! They also spoke decent English so we had no issues communicating :) Both the check-in and check-out processes were smooth.
- The hotel is a few minutes walk away from the Nana BTS station. Very convenient!
