Dong Chen hotels from HK$96

"For the price the hotel was good. I had a room on the top floor with a view of the lake. The bathroom was clean, but as usual, Asian style with no barrier between the shower and toilet. But that's not unusual. Breakfast was good. Lots of food and a decent coffee maker. Location good not far from restaurants and the lake for a stroll. "

"Nice and decent for budget conscious travellers. Rooms are not soundproof and can be noisy when room is next to the lift. "

"No sound proof for the room. The room above walking you can hear every steps. Room clean. It good for what you pay for."

"The hotel refused the check-in. I booked the hotel for 1 night for my friend. My friend is 18 years old and she had no problem check in other hotels before. But this time the Sabuy Best Hotel refused her check in and said it was because she was not 19 years old yet ( she was 18 at the time) with a very rude and angry voice to my friend. Of cause there was no refund or any gesture of being friendly (minimum requirement of hospitalisation industry) from the hotel. First time I am giving a hotel 1 star review because in deed they deserve it! "

"Nice renovated room and modern building with lots of glasses allowing sunlight through. Staff are nice and friendly. Free bike rental for cruising along the lake. Interesting to see lots of anglers fishing there. Nice town"

"everything was as shown on the website, which is rare. the place was immaculate and the staff could not have been better. so friendly and helpful even though i could not speak any Thai. it was great. if i come back to Phayao i will definately stay there."
