Lee Kian Tiong 2008-08-10 until 2008-08-11	Areca Lodge, Pattaya 2nd Road Quality of the room is acceptable. However, the hotel is very unaccommdating regarding extension of check out time. My flight back home is 8.15pm and have requested for late check out at 2pm which they refusing profusely. Insisting that they are experiencing high occupancy which I find it hard to believe as the hotel was pretty quiet actually. Also the breakfast spread is limited. Location of the hotel is about 10 min to the sea but easily 30 min to walking street. For the same price, I think one can easily get a hotel nearer to the beach. will not stay there again.	Efficient and fast though rate are sometime higher than other online websites.
P. Ostrowski 2008-08-03 until 2008-08-06	Areca Lodge, Pattaya 2nd Road this was my second stay there. cheerful service from staff, clean rooms, great location, and reasonable rates. i will be back.	pretty efficient for me until they wanted a fax confirmation of the bank transfer. they finally accepted a scanned document instead.
Jeffrey Steven Elsmore 2008-07-28 until 2008-08-04	Areca Lodge, Pattaya 2nd Road The hotel is quite good value for money. However, the rooms are a bit worn and tired looking. I found the building work next door a bit noisy during the day and that stopped me sitting around the pool. The balcony I had was tiny and not of any use. The breakfast was good and the staff were friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel is great if you want to be near the centre of town and close to the bars. I am unsure if I would stay there again.	First class, easy booking - as usual.
Melvyn James 2008-07-25 until 2008-07-29	Areca Lodge, Pattaya 2nd Road The staff here was friendly enough, i m not sure if i got the short straw at this hotel as it was full when i arrived. So i was given a room they probably left until nothing else was left. It was roomy enough too, but on entering the room there was a stale smell from within. The fabric furniture certainly needed replacing or a good wash. A stall and a lounger made from plastic would of been better as there wouldn t of been a smell coming from them. Nothing of mine went anywhere near them, i did ask to change rooms but there was nothing left i was told. Not forgetting building work going on outside too, these guys start work ealy and go on well into the night. So if you re like me, love the nightlife and like rolling into your hotel in the early hours of the morning, forget about a long sleep in! Breakfast wasn t much of a choice, but it was just ok. Can t see myself staying there again though, i was recommended another hotel further up the road and that was a lot newer and worth the money.
RWE 2008-07-12 until 2008-07-19	Areca Lodge, Pattaya 2nd Road Good, clean hotel. Two nice pools. My room faced the construction site, but the sound was non-existent with the door closed and the air conditioner on. Location is good, with the exception of crossing second road. Breakfast was included, was very good, and varried slightly from day to day. I would definitely stay there again.	sawadee.com is always a pleasure.
Henry Thomas Miller 2008-07-06 until 2008-07-12	Areca Lodge, Pattaya 2nd Road Hotel was outstanding. The room was clean, well maintained, and large. It was equipped with TV (40+) channels covering all major languages, refrigerator (2 free bottles water /day), electronic safe, and staff did a great job cleaning room every day. The hotel has two pools and both are beautiful and well maintained, with food and drink service. There is parking for cars and/or motorbikes if you rent one. The internet service on site costs 1 baht/minute about going rate in local pay for service centers. The staff is extremely friendly, and breakfast is great -- cereal, breads, juice, cook to order eggs, fresh fruits, choice of Thai dishes, coffee and tea. Many families staying here. Highly recommend and would stay again.	Booking service was outstanding. Did everything electronically, and all was in order when I showed up. Also price was good -- 150 baht day less then if booked with hotel directly. Hotel would not match rate negotiated by Sawadee.com Would use again.
