Great location, clean rooms, slept well

Baan Busaba is a nice clean hotel, the receptionist verified our agoda booking while the staff helped us with our luggage so we didn't have to lug it up the stairs. There are not many stairs but the first flight into the hotel may be a doozy depending how much you've packed. I appreciated the help.

The rooms were a nice size and the AC was always great for a refreshing break from the sun. There is a good sized pool out behind the hotel, but it's located next to a natural water source that can sometimes have a bit of a funny smell, but for the price we were paying, the pool was a great reprieve from the heat and was a bonus on top of the comfy room.

We slept just fine, and there were less mosquitos in this hotel then our previous ones in the Haad yao area which was nice. The wifi signal was pretty weak in our rooms, but if you stepped outside your room there was some nice wooden seating that overlooked the pool, so I would usually just chill out there if I had some internet stuff to do.

The location was great for us, close to Thongsala which had a little food court and a few restaurants, all at great prices, to visit. If you need to rent a scooter you can do that in the Thongsala area as well. A fun night market with concert shows was going on while we were there, which felt like a much more authentic thai experience!

The biggest downside of the hotel was that there was no shower curtain around the edge of the tub, so the water would always get everywhere and our bathroom floor was always soaked. If you have a cheap pair of flip flips they're good to have on hand when using the bathroom, just so you don't slip or have to get your feet wet all the time.

Other than that we had a great sleep and really enjoyed the cleanliness and location. If you need to take the ferry out the next day or are arriving late at night and want a close place to stay, Baan Busaba should fit the bill.
