Diamond Home Resort

We took a fan-only room, which was okay, and the nights weren't too hot. But the bed was far firmer than the usual firm beds in Asia, more like sleeping on the floor. The room was somewhat dirty, and despite a sign offering breakfast, there wasn't any. It's a very budget property, and nothing seemed free or on time. Even instant coffee cost money, and you had to buy the paper cup, but there was nobody around to pay. They first said they'd take Visa, then said they wouldn't. We were told we could pay the next day, but in the morning someone came to our door three times, taking us back and forth to the office to ask for cash and trying to charge more than our online booking. After several arguments and showing proof, they finally took Visa at the correct price, plus a Visa surcharge.

The one good thing was the swimming pool. It was amazing, really big and nice. The room, though, was old and dirty, the sheets had holes and were dirty too, and the floor hadn't been cleaned. While we waited at reception to check in for a few minutes, the receptionist burped in my face twice. She was really lazy and unfriendly. Worst receptionist ever.

We paid 270bht for a small, dingy fan room with a private bathroom. A massive cockroach got into the room and evaded us all night. The place looked a bit rundown, and the staff seemed surly at best. It's cheap, so if your budget is tight, it's fine. If money isn't a concern, do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else.

The reception girl and all the staff were very nice. Our room was really clean and had a private bathroom, and there was a big, clean swimming pool. An excellent place to stay on a Krabi holiday. I recommend it 100%.
