Multiple things made me change hotels after just one night. First, they have the normal very firm Thailand bed (to be expected everywhere so didn’t bother me too much). But on top of that they have easily the hardest pillows I’ve ever used at any hotel anywhere (ok, so hard bed and pillows, not a deal breaker)
Next, yes, they do have air conditioners, however the air conditioner seems like it was made for a closet, and I’m not talking about a walk-in-closet. On the air conditioner it says “do not set the air conditioner below 20 C”, well I could not handle this since the room was blazing hot and would not cool. I put it down to 18 C (the lowest it would go), but NO WAY the room got below 27 C (80 F), and that was after having the air conditioner on from 2am when I got in, until 8am when I awoke.... covered in sweat (and the air conditioner is directly next to the bed and couldn’t cool me down). I actually took a shower, and while getting ready I literally started sweating already before leaving the room. Also, the air conditioner shuts off when you leave (pretty normal in Thailand, but this place was always hotter than outside when I got back so that’s what made this a bigger deal)
If this wasn’t bad enough, I was woken up at exactly 8am because right next door (no joke, maybe 20 feet away, or 6ish meters for the rest of the world) they were doing construction on the next building (jackhammer, drilling,etc).
