H. Boutique Hotel

The staff were quite friendly and efficient during check-in, and remained friendly and attentive throughout my stay. The hotel is conveniently located on Pattaya Second Road Soi 11, so it's a short walk to either Second Road or Soi Buakhow (both of which are on Baht bus routes). The hotel is positioned at the quieter end of the soi, so there is little noise during the wee hours, which is always a bonus in Pattaya.

The room was a little tired, and some of the furniture and towels etc. looked a bit worse for wear. The lobby and common areas are nice enough but the rooms could, in my view, do with a face lift. The room was reasonably clean, quiet, and functional but the location of this hotel is its strongest selling point. Overall, good value for the rates they charge so it's a nice place if you're on a budget, but not if you're looking for a five-star experience.

Good location and decent value. Pretty quiet compared to other hotels in the area. Mini mart across the street and laundry just a short walk away.

At checkout, they initially refused to return my 500 baht key deposit. First they said I hadn't paid a deposit then they said they had already returned it? I felt like the staff was hoping I would let it go since my taxi was waiting. They finally did find a record and returned it.
