Salad Beach, Ko Pha Ngan

The hotel is not so bad, but I can't give it a better rating than this one. It is rather quiet and pretty, a little off-center, with a beautiful swimming pool with a small view of the sea and access to the beach where you can watch the sunset. As far as the rooms are concerned, they are clean but would need renovations to be updated.  Breakfast is varied and pretty good, as far as meals you can stay at the hotel, otherwise I advise you to walk 2-3 minutes to reach the Ying Ying or the Alex Restaurant. Both are excellent and unmissable if you pass around !!! The scam: Despite all these positives, I am not in a position to advise you to stay at this hotel, where the man at the front desk is dishonest. Indeed, he defrauded us of 1000 THB. The deposit per room is normally 500 THB, he asked us 2000 for 2 rooms. At the check out, there is only a 1000 THB note for us, strangely we had not obtained a receipt and the cameras are no longer viewable beyond 5 days ..., Sacred lot of coincidences because this young man knew very well that we stayed 5 nights !!! Above all, we are crazy according to the host, but there are 3 of us who have seen and heard the same thing. Still, we will never see those 1000 THBs again and he sends us a huge smile and has all the other travellers who were checking out at the same time say that they had paid 500 THB bail. (none of them had stayed more than 5 days) In the taxi for the return, we chat with a couple who tell us that when they arrived there they asked them 150 THB for breakfast, then at the time of paying the price of breakfast had gone to 250 THB. In case you still wish to stay at this hotel, be careful what you are asked for and remember to ask for a receipt systematically in case you should leave a deposit because on our receipt there was no amount.  Film the money exchanges at the check in if need be! Good trip and above all be wary !!!
