Dlaczego ludzie to uwielbiają
- Unbeatable location right across from Phayao Lake (Kwan Phayao)
- Walking distance to the Naga Monument and night market
- Spacious rooms with private balconies
Szybki przegląd: The location does the heavy lifting for this aging 3-star hotel that offers million-dollar lake views at a backpacker price.
Przejrzane przez @GillDay9484475: I came here needing a quiet escape and this room was exactly that. The interior is simple and clean, but the real magic happens when you slide open that balcony door. Sitting there watching the lake shimmer under the afternoon sun was my favorite part of the whole trip.
