Lumpini Parkbeach Pattaya Pool View

Lumpini has been a good-value place to stay in Pattaya during low season, and the buildings are clean and organized. The path to the seaside is safe for pedestrians, and taxis are easy to get. I enjoyed the pool during my first month, and the hardworking cleaners deserve a special thanks. My two stays in Building E were disappointing, though. On the first, the condo didn’t match the photos. The second host switched my unit just 24 hours before check-in, gave no reason, and offered three places, all facing the noisy main road. Both rooms needed deep cleaning and maintenance. The kitchen plugs were badly placed, there was black mold around the sink, ants in the kitchen, and the laundry rack was rusty. I was told a previous guest had damaged the bathroom sink with cigarette butts. It’s made of hard plastic rather than the usual sink material. Neither room had bedside lamps. An important gym machine was broken when I checked in April and still broken when I moved in early June. The office said I couldn’t use the gym in another building. It was low season with very few guests, yet unlike at Seven Seas, I had to keep asking for things. Management lacked professionalism and oversight. I hope I won’t need another condo in Lumpini. Pay 3/4,000 Baht more and get a better one.
