ibis Styles Bangkok Ratchada

All staffs are nice except for the guy in the Streats bar on the ground floor. He never smiles. I checked out the room after 5night stay and then ordered food outside to eat in the lobby. He does not let me have my luch in the lobby Even I paid for a drink, he just let me eat one of my dishes. That was a not good experience

Overall was a good stay, first thing i noticed was that this ibis Styles Bangkok Ratchada actually looks like a new building, contrary to my previous stay at other ibis hotels. Drop off point was extremely huge as the front driveway was much bigger. Checking in process was smooth, and was given complementary drinks as i think it was due to my Accor membership, which my other friend did not have as they were not Accor members. There were 3 lifts, which as great, so more ppl can be moved fast up the many levels of the hotel. Room card was required to operate the lift as it was pretty good security to prevent unknown people going up to the rooms. This hotel seems to be a non-smoking hotel, and thus there was no awkward smell left in the room. Usual procedure of checking the things in the room, making sure the switches and aircon is working properly. The aircon in my room is not so great, as compared to the other friends who are staying at the same level, although i wished it had been better. Mine was a double bed room, with a 2 seater sofa and a small swivel tea-table. Bed was so-so, and if strictly speaking, it was not as good as previous ibis i stayed at other location, but still good enough, just not great. There was no other table where i could put my small stuff other than the luggage rack area, and the pantry top, so things can get abit messy when laying out your stuff. Room has 2 tall and narrow windows at the corners, so you will not have any claustrophobic feel even though the window is quite narrow. Basin and mirror is not separated by any walls in the rooms, so it feels like its part of the room, instead of part of the bathroom area. Not really a problem unless you roommate has an issue with you turning on the lights and brushing your teeth right infront of their face when they are on the bed. Toiletries although not in the room, but available free upon request. Shower has good pressure and heated water. Generally a pretty decent room for the price, location is considered convenient, although not really in the heart of the shopping area. With the MRT right beside the hotel, it is quite a breeze to be travelling around bangkok without fears of the famous traffic jam. One thing to note. The room furniture does not help people who needs to work while travelling. With just a small tea-table, my laptop has practically covered the table and i am not able to put more device on the table, e.g. handphones and documents/papers. Socket is not good for a bigger plug as the 2 sockets are almost sticking to each other, which means if your plug is huge, you are not able to use the 2nd socket anymore.
