Not bad considering the price. tuk-tuk drivers know it by name, but agree on a price in writing or in thai before you go - they know who stays here, so they're enthusiastic purveyors of the "you misheard me" scam. the reception can provide maps of the town; food is generally unavailable. 230 baht for fan rooms, 370 baht for air-con. some rooms only have squat toilets.
