Hima Boutique

The location is excellent. But the room is a bit dark.

Cute little hotel and the price is right. Rooms are a little worn but very clean. Beds are firm but clean and comfortable enough. They provide a small amount of bottled water daily as well as a small plate of fresh fruit each day, which is nice touch. Staff at the front desk are very friendly and helpful. Laundry is $1/kg and returned the same day if you drop it off in the morning. The pool is cool, clean and great for refreshing after a hot day at the temples. The area is quite walkable and there are good restaurants very close by, including a nice French cafe for brunch just down the street. However - we had an electronic item stolen from our room while we were there. The staff were remarkably unconcerned when we reported it, and we didn't even hear from a manager. So learn from our mistake and don't fall for the "family owned" vibe - either they have staff who can't be trusted or their security is so lacking that people are breaking in from outdoors. Either use the safe (although we all know those are dubiously secure too) or take your valuables with you when you go out.

Nice place to stay, pretty close to the centre, main roads and some parks. Calm street during the night. Cafés around are nice. Free transfer fron the airport. Special thanks to Mr Pov who was our tuk-tuk driver and got us around the city!
