Pros +
- Good quality for value, good localization and Very quiet place very close to Shinatown!
- It was noisy but much quieter than my most hotels I've been in so far in both Thailand and Cambodia. I've stayed at 3 hotels now and Check Inn China Town was the least noisy.
- I booked the ground floor room without windows because that was all that was left, but it turned out to be the best! No road noise, no morning light waking you up, a comfortable bed and a spacious room, and a 24 hour clerk watching over your room- I couldn’t ask any better for the first couple jet lagged days in Bangkok.
Cons -
- The attress to hard for french people
- No one knew where this was, my airport shuttle dropped me off at the wrong hotel, I had to take a tuk-tuk to it. I had to find a landmark and guide them. Asking the staff for help is non-existent, I was told to go outside to find my destination.
- The space was a little congested but thats fine considering the amount we paid.

Location was very near to China town night market however it’s inside a small alley. Easy accessible to restaurants and 7/11. Room was spacious. I personally liked the small kitchen nook with everything available.
The space was a little congested but thats fine considering the amount we paid.
I do like the facilities in the room, such as microwave, plates and cutlery, stove.
The AC Placement, because it is too strong on one side, my friend got cold after that
Great little hotel. Loved my room with balcony and little kitchen area. friendly and helpful staff, great location. Has a elevator so you don't have to walk up any steps. A walk down.the alley and you are on the main road in Chinatown. Also close to 7/11 and lotus grocery store. Walk around the side streets, you'll find cheaper and better food than the main road in China town. I would stay here again
The pillows could be softer. Only has Parking for scooters not cars.
I nearly didn't stay here because some of the reviews were negative, but everything was fine, I can't understand what people complain about. The location is perfect if you want to be in Chinatown, the staff were pleasant and helpful although not all spoke English. Despite what others have said, I had no problem with taxis finding the hotel, my partner requested a hairdryer and was immediately handed one. No complaints at all, I would stay here again.
The rooms are smaller than they appear in the pictures, but it's a very minor problem.
The location and value for money is impressive.
Room was a little small. Not the cleanest hotel I have visited.
Nearby Chinatown, comfortable bed,great air conditioning, cable TV ? The staff was real friendly liked the large room. I got 4 rooms and all of us agreed we would come back again
Just wish we could of stayed longer, no complaints we were very satisfied
Well located in the center of china town but calm in a little street very nearby everything ! The bedroom is okay, beds confortable and good pillows - The staff was very nice and helpful.
There was no view in the bedroom, just a window leading to a roof.
It is conveniently located close to Chinatown and the Wat Mangton subway station.
Not in a particularly attractive lane, but that’s a small point and irrelevant once in the room. I stayed 4 nights and it was comfortable enough.
Location & with balcony! Just a stone throw away fr Wat Mangkon MRT. Exit 3 once out turn right. 2nd traffic which is 7-11. Just cross over to opposite on main rd & turn right within 10m look ( look up d signage )into d left alley(Soi 14) u will see a quite famous Chinese restaurant, walk in till u see d hotel on d right. Rather ez to find!! Not as someone stated dark alley!! Very near to Chinatown also. Once out hotel flank left then either turn left ( back to where u came fr) or right u turn right walk out & u hit main rd of Chinatown!!Easily accessible!! I usually took d back gate wooden door of d temple to walk out into Chinatown.
Just d shower hot & cold water. Rather difficult to control d temperature but in Thailand weather is hot so no much of issue!!
The room was old but it was very cozy. It even had a little kitchenette and cutlery which we used as we bought takeouts to eat. The location is great. It was walking distance to some of the places we wanted to go to and close to the subway as well. The staff was friendly and helpful.
the bathroom was a little small.
-location was great close to MRT Wat Mangkorn just few mins away-street foods /local Chinese market /7-11 around hotel-value for money to stay-staffs were friendly and service minded. Willing to help immediately. -bed were comfy and AC was great.-have small pantry and kitchen ware/ microwave/hairdryer provided.
-room and facilities in the room quite old. -TV channel not good. The signal was terrible but the staffs help to replaced and fixed the problem. -fridge not working and also staffs fixed and replaced it. - Wifi terrible. Poor signal i cant work. Need to connect hotspot from my phone. This needs to fix the most.
The location was great (close to MRT, in the heart of China Town) and safe. Staff were super friendly and always ready to help — they were truly amazing. For this price especially, it was more than I hoped for!
I like the location and the streetfood in China town.
Staff isn't as friendly as when it was still The Check Inn. There is no breakfast available like in the past. The open roof where we used to be able to have breakfast or just something to drink is now a store room. We did not ask to have our rooms cleaned but they could have at least supplied us with bottled water, clean towels and toilet paper. The overall feeling of the whole place is just not good anymore.
I enjoyed my stay , the staff were exceptional and went out of their way to help. Kob and Pueng gave advice where to go and eat in Chinatown and organise a taxi if needed. The cleaning ladies Noy, Jimmy and Pu always made up my room leaving it spotless clean. Always a smile and welcome on my arrival,
I only stayed for three weeks, wish it was longer.
Location of the hotel is good, all stores are in walkable distances
Hotel loby is very congested, thrashes were keeping on the frond lobby it self, staffs are not supportive, room finishes are very inferior...and showing a low class...Deceitfully showing high rent and discount to attract people. Not worthy for even the discounted rent
Good for stay in Chinatown and close to Trainstation. Pantrykitchen, even Minimum itams avaiable. Friendly staff. Most time quiete.
Bad cleaning. In 4 weeks not a single time cleaning bathroom for real. Dust at desks. Change towles and bedline by call for, but often old an spots, even clean
The staff were very helpful and friendly. The location was great to get around in Chinatown.It was a lovely experience, especially during the New Year.
