“This guesthouse strikes me as a particularly solid choice in Chiang Mai's Old Town, offering a central location that puts you steps away from key attractions, including the Sunday market. I appreciate that it balances value and convenience, with an on-site restaurant that receives consistently high marks for its food. The manager appears to be a real asset, known for his helpfulness, which further enhances the experience.”
