JJ Residence (somsri praditjarone company branch 1)

The property was in a perfect location. Only took a few minutes to walk anywhere we needed to go. Only 3 minute walk from the pier. Very central. Great spot. Very friendly staff and easy check in. The rooms were nice and beds were comfy. We only stayed for a night so it was very convenient

There was never any wifi. You had to be in the lobby for even a little bit of wifi to work. We also had a big ant problem in our room, in the bed, ect.

We booked 2 rooms and it was nice having them next to each other.It was good having access to the pool from the room.

The location showed on booking.com DOESN'T match the location of the hotel, very frustrating when dragging luggage around with children.The WiFi was pretty much unusable, if you need reliable internet then this is not the place for you - I tried to talk to the reception but got nowhere with it. Not sure of the age of the photos but they were not very accurate.

Would not be visiting again.

The room had a strong smell of mold. The location is close to the pier however the neighborhood is extremely dirty.

The property was central and gave us easy access to all parts of the island.

The area surrounding the property was dirty and there was piles of rubbish bags near where the Sun beds were meant to be (but weren’t). The bed was very hard and the receptionist seemed hesitant or bothered when we asked for help with our tv and the hot water. Our main frustration was the experience we had didn’t align to the price we paid, we didn’t expect lots but cleanliness and kindness are important.

Easy to walk everywhere, quiet to sleep.. Our room balcony opened on to the pool which was lovely.

We were out alot. Mostly just slept and showered.

Good hotel in terms of value, location and quality. It wasn't dirty by any means, but the floors could have done with a sweep from sand. There are two pool options - small but definitely nice to have. Our room was a great large size, with dressing table, wardrobe, TV and stand, and good size balcony.A big plus was the security box in the room - something we haven't had in many places. It was greatly appreciated.The lady on reception was pleasant and let us store our bags after we checked out.There are lots of friendly cats hanging out around the halls and hotel - we enjoyed it but maybe not everyone would.

It wasn't dirty by any means, but the floors could have done with a sweep from sand.

Location was excellent but that is all it had going for it. The bed was like sleeping on a plank of wood (the hardest bed we have ever had to try to sleep on (not that we got any sleep)! Too much dark wood on the walls and ceiling made the room feel very oppressive. No working TV channels and the Internet was diabolical to non-existent. Paint peeling off the walls. The rooms need a makeover.

Great location. 4 minute walk from pier.

Can be quite noisy. Music playing until 1/2am so not ideal if you are a light sleeper. Not sound proofed. Could hear people talking in the next room. Cleaners were quite noisy while cleaning the room next to us which woke us. Staff also banged on our door 15 minutes before check out time for us to check out now which I didn’t appreciate.

Location is good, less than a 5 min walk to the ferry port. Rooms were authentic and they had a couple of resident cats which was lovely.

You could hear some noise from the parties on the island at night however nothing my ear plugs didn’t sort out. Our UK adapter only fit into one plug (3 pins vs 2) so we had to unplug the tv if we wanted to charge anything.

The location is smack in the middle of the town. Make sure you get a long tail to explore the nearby islands, they are amazing.

This isn't to do with the accommodation but the smell of the town is horrendous. Smells of fermented fruit mixed with rotten thai food. Not pleasant at all when swimming in the small pool at the hotel. The rubbish on the beaches are disgusting.

We stayed on ground floor and could walk straight out of room to the pool. It was great location but not noisy either.

The location was very good and the rooms were very clean.

The shower had problems with warm water, somebody came and fixed it but the same day it wasnt working again and also the next day no hot water

It's located in the centre of the island, yet far enough away from the party areas/noise. Plenty of food stores including authentic thai restaurants from the door step. Clean, big rooms and good quality beds and sheets. Great new ACs, and pool is nice and well kept.

Check-out time is 1100hrs and ferries are either 0900hrs or 1430hrs. It'll be good to have a 12-1300hr option but this is not isolated to this hotel as most are the same.You can leave your luggage at the reception.

Location was great central but quiet.

We had two rooms the room on the same level as hte swimming pool had a damp smell. The area aroudn the pool needs some work to make you want to spendtime there.

Great location, and value for moneyThe receptionist was so lovely!The pool rooms had direct access to the pool from the baloney.

The pillows were too small, could do with an extra for comfort.

Easy, friendly check in. Close to everything but also far enough away that it’s quiet. Staff very friendly.

Only got 1 pillow, asked for another and we got them quickly. Not many sun loungers. Water pressure not amazing but enough to wash your hair.

Location, walk in swimming pool and the fact they had rooms available

The room smelt mouldy as soon as we got in, we thought it was aircon. It wasn’t! We also found a big dead black bug in the floor. The shower was old fashioned, we were given a room by the pool. The pool was not bad but bad lighting at night. Also we had a trip at 6 am, checkout is at 11am, we left our bags in the reception. We called their number and they told my husband it costs 300 Baht per hour our bags remain there, we’ve travelled to many different countries and different parts of Thailand, we have never experienced this. So they would have charged us 900 baht for three hours. Bear in mind we paid Bhat 1870 for a night, you’d think they could keep our bags for three hours for free. Our tour guide was shocked when we informed him, he offered to look after our suitcases and suggested we complain to tourist police as this is unheard of in Thailand.

Great location only a 5 minute straight walk from the pier and a 2 minute walk to the beach. Nice small pool but very close to the beach to use the sea. Large sized rooms and a decent size balcony.

The staff we not very helpful when we asked for recommendations or had questions about the room.

Location was great, close to everything but still peaceful. Staff were great. Staff were great and cleanliness is great but shower heads need cleaning . Only stay here if you get pool rooms or if location to close by shops and restaurants is important to your stay.

First room was terrible. Bed was broken. But staff were great. They changed our rooms immidiately as it was low season. They had plenty rooms.Lighting is terrible. It's super dark in the room. Defintely get a pool rooms, it's the best part. Room has a musky smell.

Wonderful pool, quiet location, clean comfy nice rooms
