Chiang Rai
Easy House
869/163-4 Th Premaviphat
Chiang Rai
Thailand
Type: Twin room, Fan, shared bathroom
What We Liked: Good location to bus stop bars and good eats & cheap. In saying that the rooms show how cheap it is – they are similar to a jail cell with concrete floors and dirty walls.
What We Didnt Like: It was very noisy from the bars across the road – sitting in our room fely like we were sitting at the bar having a drink with how clearly we could her the music, the fan didn’t do much, and a few too many mossies for our liking.
Would we Recommend? Only if you couldn’t get in somewhere else. Kim did look at another guesthouse and it was even worse than here so we decided on the best of 2 bad options and stayed here.
