La Casita Huahin Condo

The room matched the pictures perfectly – clean, very spacious, and quiet. All facilities were available, and it was conveniently located for travel.

This is a very conveniently located, modern residential complex. It's close to Blueport and Market Village shopping malls, and a 7/11. The pool is excellent, with a kids' slide and jacuzzis. There's a coffee machine with various drinks, and the apartment had everything we needed – all the necessary appliances, so we could cook for ourselves. It's a 7-10 minute walk to the beach along a quiet alley. The beach is especially great for kids – shallow and with nice sand. We really enjoyed our stay.

This place is like an Airbnb, where each room is managed by a different owner. So, it's a hit-or-miss situation; some rooms might be well-maintained, and some might not. We were a family of three and ended up booking a room that only looked good on the surface. The pillowcases, cushion covers, and bed pads generally seemed unwashed, with a strong, unpleasant smell that seemed like sebum. We had to lay down our own blankets on the bed and only used cushions that didn't smell when we slept. In the bathroom, there was only one thin roll of toilet paper and a bottle of cleanser that could have been body wash or shampoo – impossible to tell, and it had no brand name. There were no bathroom slippers, a drain odor, and mold in the grout. Every time we entered the bathroom, it felt unsanitary. Choose wisely before staying here.

This isn't a hotel, it's a rental condo. That should be made clear upfront.
