Ubon Hotel

Close to city park perfect ti see candle festival.

I booked this hotel via Agoda, and clearly this was a mistake. First I have to say Agoda cheated me on the superior room deal. Truth is there is no such thing as a superior room. All the rooms are standards. The only difference is that the superior rooms normaly comes with breakfast, tea or coffee. However given the state of the restaurant which is closed,there is no tea, no nothing and all the hotel rooms are 500 baths. Agoda cheated me on that one. Why did i pay for a premium which doesn't exist. I will never ever use Agoda again. Pros : Location, it is near a market, some shops and the airport is not far off. Cons : Although clean, the room was infested by ants, including the bed. I could not sleep as i kept getting bitten all night. I asked for a non smoking room, but the balcony was full of old cigarette buds. The whole building looks in needs of a much much needed complete renovation. It feels as if the hotel has been abandoned years ago. It is like a time capsule from the 70's...They try to keep it clean ish...but it really needs a complete make over. It's falling appart. There is an old TV set in the room, with 8 channels. Ammenities are just two bars of soap. Aircon has no remote, but even with one it struggles to keep the room cold enough. The restaurant has been closed for sometime and it is in a mess. In conclusion, I know I can't expect much for 17$, however there are much better places in that town. I transit through Ubon all the time, and have stayed in much better places for the same budget. To be franck, the owners should close this place down and put it out of it's misery. At least the staff was pleasant.
