"The location was excellent. We did not realize we were located right within the Kata night market until arrival, which was very convenient and a neat atmosphere. With the market going on daily, our stay and room was very quiet. The room was clean as well. Only thing that was odd was the bathroom window had open view to a balcony above across the way as we were on the 3rd floor. However we just closed the bathroom door. Overall we enjoyed our stay here and the location again was great. No...
