Ok, I only stayed one night here , let me list the positives;
Very clean room, the linens are amazing quality on the bed, very comfy pillows; nice little kitchen on the ground floor, staff is very friendly
The not so good parts, to explain, I spend a lot of time in BkK and this was a last minute day trip, my usual places were full, so I chose Red Pin. The room cost $45 which by BkK standards should be in the $25 range, if not lower
Reasons, it is a not easy 22 walk to the nearest BTS station, including 2 overhead pedestrian crossing, think lots of steps, hard with luggage, ( I had none ); taxis from BTS? This area is notoriously traffic gridlocked
There is nothing close by to appeal to visitors, the malls are about 20 minute walk, no restaurants, bars etc close by under 20 minutes
Room: very small, no window, no safe box, no hangers, just some hooks, thin walls, nearby construction rules out any naps
With a little pre planning a room for $45 can get you center downtown, minimum minute walk to BTS, restaurants and bars, also the rooms are usually twice the size of Red Pin, and have safety box, closets, hangers, ironing board etc, kettle in room and a complete shower
Conclusion, if despairing you can stay here, but I feel given the location, difficult access, lack of anything close by makes the $45 charge for this place an example of complete overcharge
If you are ok with a hotel not having an elevator or a tv in the room this place is a great value. Wifi speeds were good, room was clean and bed was comfortable, property was well kept, air conditioner worked great and lots of great places in walking distance. Overall a very enjoyable stay.
First of all reception service is very poor.Afer arrival some man was occupying seating area by packing up flipflops.Reception with its shelves at the back looked like storage room.
Bathroom had no shower curtain ,water was sprayed everywhere.Poor ventilation.Water remained on the floor hours after use and was dangerously slippery.
There were some canvas frames on the wall but no thing inside.Also one canvas was fitted upside down.
Mirror was next to the bed so to look at yourself you'd need to stand on the bed???
Only stayed for one night but the staff were very friendly and helpful bathroom was well equipped as was the mini bar, comfortable bed. the room was quite small and didn’t have window, so that if you have children it’s not a good choice . Choice of TV programs was not great, room lighting was subdued.
The hotel has a very good location. It is very close to Siam Paragon Mall.
