Great Staff, Good Rooms, Small Shortcomings

We arrived at EZ House late but were warmly welcomed. Our initial impression was 'dirty' based on the stairway; however, the room itself was clean. We minor issues in the room but none of them were show stoppers. First, there was no toilet paper in the bathroom so we had to use the 'tissue' off the desk. Second, there was a light out in the bathroom leaving the sink and mirror unlit. Third, was the fact there were only two outlets in the room, one if the fridge was plugged in. We unplugged the vent fan in the bathroom and left the light on overnight to power that outlet so we could charge both of our cell phones. The room wasn't huge but it still had room for the bed, a chair, and a built-in desk, wardrobe, and cabinets along one wall. The shower is a typical Asian shower head on the wall by the toilet. The water heater worked well and it had good pressure. The bed was comfortable and both of us slept very well. There is little noise from outside but anything that happens in the hall echos and can be heard in the room. The owners and workers did a great deal to offset our initial mediocre impression with their helpfulness the following morning. They gave us directions, told us about the minibuses to the old city, and advised we try the night 'bazaar' where we got dinner. Though we didn't exercise the option, I saw other customers taking advantage of the free bikes the owner provides his guests. We were also the recipients of one of their bags of Sukhothai biscuits when we checked out. The location of the hotel is great to see New Sukhothai , however, it is about 12 km to Old Sukhothai. Because they are on the main road it is easy to catch one of the wooden minibuses. That being said, if your goal is to see Sukhothai Historical Park I would recommend you find a hotel closer to avoid the wasted travel time. We were generally satisfied with the EZ House but would probably try to book something closer to the Old City if we were to visit again.
