SIAM BAYSHORE RESORT PATTAYA
I like the hotel location. Great pools. Great breakfast. Fantastic staff and a shout out to Golf. Nice room , but the bathroom has a bathtub that's to high for anyone to get in or out. These days walk in showers are the way to go.

Boutique City And Bravo Hotel Pattaya
Hotel was making renovations of the water system and still accepted bookings. No hot water and then no water at all until we made it known that this isn’t acceptable to paying guests….close hotel for renovations or include information in the booking site so people can choose. Also food was not warm ...

The air conditioning was on spot. Bathtub nice. Close to party but not that closed to have time to think about ...
