OYO 881 SP Tha Phra

Convenient, but a bit dirty.

The hotel should have someone answering the phone around 1:00 PM. It looks like they don’t take app bookings and focus on walk-ins. But if you show up and the rooms are full, it’s a waste of time. I called twice and nobody answered 😅.

It’s close to the MRT, which makes getting around very convenient. The room is quite small, but having a sofa, refrigerator, and balcony is nice. This place suits people who aren’t too picky and just want somewhere for a short overnight stay. Keep the balcony closed, though, because mosquitoes get in quickly. I was bitten all night and even woke up to a flattened mosquito on the bed. The bathroom light started malfunctioning while I was there, and the staff said on LINE that their notifications weren’t working either. There’s a restaurant and drinks shop nearby, though I didn’t get to try them. Wall shelves and an extra face towel would be useful. A larger TV with more channels could also make it better value.

I regularly take the MRT to Tha Phra station, so I should have passed by this place. MRT Thaphra, spthaphra. I’ve never seen it, and I don’t know what it is.
