Comfortable and Clean

The rooms at Intiwatana were affordable and spotlessly clean, making for a pleasant stay. I appreciated the warm showers available at scheduled times, which added to my comfort after a long day of exploring. Plus, the hotel is conveniently located close to local hot springs for a relaxing evening.

I had a lovely stay at this boutique hotel. The rooms were modern and cozy, making it a great choice for comfort seekers. The staff was accommodating, but I did wish for a bit more variety at breakfast. Overall, the amenities were nice, although the fitness area could use some updates. It’s priced just right for what you get, but some aspects could be improved.

My stay at this boutique hotel was mostly enjoyable with clean and comfortable rooms, and a cozy ambiance. The service was decent, though not always as responsive as I'd hoped. I loved the location, being close to the train station made it super convenient for exploring the area. However, dining options could use some improvement, especially for breakfast. Overall, it's good value for money, but there are areas that could enhance the experience.

I had a lovely stay at this boutique hotel. The rooms were incredibly clean and comfortable, with a modern touch. The service was friendly and accommodating, making me feel right at home. However, the breakfast selection could use a bit of improvement to match the overall quality. The hotel’s location is also very convenient, with easy access to local attractions, but it would have been perfect if they’d offered complimentary Wi-Fi.

I had a great stay at this boutique hotel, where the rooms were both clean and comfortable. The friendly staff really made a difference in my experience. While the breakfast options were somewhat limited, the overall dining experience was pleasant. The pool area was a highlight and well-maintained. However, the Wi-Fi being a paid service did take away from the overall value for money.

I had a lovely stay at this boutique hotel, with clean and cozy rooms and a nice atmospheric vibe. The location is super convenient, being very close to the train station, but the service could use a bit of polishing. The breakfast was decent but not overly exciting, and while the pool was nice, I wished it had better lounge options. Overall, it’s a good value for the price but left room for improvement.
