Sleep With Me Hotel Design Hotel @ Patong

Great boutique hotel but..

We were in Phuket for 3 days - spent 2 at one hotel and 1 at Sleep With Me. We ended up leaving the first hotel because this hotel is right by Bangla Road and all the other cool places and we were so happy with our decision! The decor is cool, the rooftop pool has a nice bar/ restaurant next to it so that was nice.. and the staff was SUPER nice!

However, the hotel is starting to look a bit old - it was raining and there was a huge puddle/ leak by the elevators and we saw two cockroaches.

The facility was fine, but the staff is untrustwor

The room was clean and spacious and the facility seems higher in quality than the price would indicated

The staff seems untrustworthy. You have to put down a 2000 Baht (or 100 dollar) cash deposit when you check in. When I was checking out, the staff claimed that I had not put down a cash deposit and that I had used a credit card. When I showed them my receipt for the deposit, they magically "found" the record of my deposit and gave me my money back. There's also a tour/travel coordinator who has a desk next to reception. When I asked to book a taxi to the airport, I was told that the rate was 1,000 baht (the going rate everywhere else is about 800 baht), and when I started laughing, the guy said that he would give me a special rate of 800 baht. The level of deception and trying to take advantage of guests seems to know no bounds at this hotel.
