Malaysian people 2008-08-07 until 2008-08-10	White Sand Resortel, Patong Beach The location of the hotel was good, just 3 minutes walking to the Patong beach and nearby to the centre of all activities in Patong. The staffs are also friendly but have a problem to speak well in English. If u rent a motorbike, u need to park infront of the hotel in the morning and move the motorbike accross the road in the evening. You need to do this on your own and do not rely on the hotel staffs to do that for you even if they promise to do that for you. On my last day at White Sand Resortel, they forgot to move our motorbike and we re fined TB500 by the police to open the padlock of the motorbike and another TB60 as a fare to go to and fro the police station. The breakfast was not good because they only served u a bread, strawberry jam, eggs, baked beans & hotdogs everyday. If u want other than that, u need to pay by yourself. Please ask to stay in room at 3rd or 4th floor if u want to see the beach from your balcony. They only have a small swimming pool at the 4th floor. Please beware if you use the pool because the edges of the stairs to going down to the pool is very sharp.	Easy to book, pay & confirm. The price is lower compare to the other web. I will use sawadee.com again if come back to Thailand.
Travis Boothman 2008-06-13 until 2008-06-17	White Sand Resortel, Patong Beach The first thing my wife and I noticed as we walked in the reception area was the disgusting smell, and it never changed the whole time we where there, the staff were ok, The room its self was great, big, 2 TVs, (we stayed in the royal suite), nice comfortable bed, very big shower, but that s where the good things ended, the shower yes it was huge but the problem was the slope that lets the water run to the drain, ran into the bathroom so everytime we showered the bathroom flooded, the A/C was the noises ever, and then of course no double glazed doors so you can hear everything from the bar across the road, the toilet was ALWAYS blocked. So I would not recommend to stay at this hotel, unless of course you like swimming in your bathroom, and having a bad smell everytime you walk in the hotel, oh and one more thing, after we checked in we waited about 5 mins for the lift to come down, we get in about 2 minutes later we arrive at our floor, when we went to go out we decided to take the stairs and well we where 10 steps from the reception area, so the lift ride to start was not needed.	Sawadee.com is as always fantastic, I had a few problems but they helped me and I have recommended them to all my staff(I work in a casino), as they truely are great.

Mila A. 2008-05-07 until 2008-05-08	White Sand Resortel, Patong Beach Very good hotel near the beach and close to the shopping area. Very nice reception staff. The only negative was the poor breakfast but otherwise everything else was very good.	Fast and easy as always
Thomas Browning 2008-03-22 until 2008-03-25	White Sand Resortel, Patong Beach Nice enough hotel. I was given a room wth 2 uncomfortable single beds and was not able to change. A/C did not work great. The people tried hard, especially the guys at breakfast. Location was not the greatest. Overall acceptable for the in Phuket.
Tan Li Hui Angela 2008-02-29 until 2008-03-03	White Sand Resortel, Patong Beach Upgraded to Royal Suite Room. Very very hospitable staff and also very extremely nice room. Very pleased with the good service the staff rendered. Will definitely go back there again as the location s superb too!	Swift and provided very good prompt replies!
Lorna Jean Steinke 2008-02-23 until 2008-02-29	White Sand Resortel, Patong Beach The hotel is very clean and location is great but I have to agree with others that the breakfast could use some help. Also, we were charged for a broken seal on a liquor bottle which was never opened. Beds are comfortable. Nothing was ever missing from our room so I consider this hotel worth trying, we enjoyed our stay over all.	Sawadee is very easy to use and all bookings were confirmed in a timely manner. Will use again on next holiday. Thank you for a stress free holiday.
Hirsch Katalin 2008-02-18 until 2008-02-25	White Sand Resortel, Patong Beach The room was large and comfortable, facing the street, but still not too noisy. Breakfast could have been better, but we did not mind. Location is good, close to the center, but not too busy. The sea is 1 min only. It was worth the price we paid.	excellent!
Mrs Cheryl Maree Lowings 2008-02-07 until 2008-02-10	White Sand Resortel, Patong Beach This hotel is absolutely disgusting and i would never...even if you paid me...stay there again. The breakfast was okay to look at i suppose but there were ants crawling all through the bread and something i bit into was off. I don t think they wash their hands because i caught worms from there and an intestinal bug. My daughter and i also fell three floors and crashed to the bottom in their dodgy elevator. The receptionist was screaming and crying as it fell and we were all frightened and yet no concern was showed...in fact, they had the nerve to overcharge me to have the laundry done. I paid $69 au dollars for a small amount of laundry after i had already confirmed with the receptionist that it was 50 baht per kilo before handing it over. When i complained about the expense i was told that was the price and i could call the police if i wasn t happy but they wouldn t refund any money. While most of the staff seem nice, it is a shame they have a silly little greedy owner...or should i say, son of the owner. Their was mould on the shower curtain and overall, i wholeheartedly hated my stay. If you plan on staying there, make sure you have some worming tablets with you and use the stairs.	This booking company is great although for the safety of their patrons, i suggest they take this unsafe hotel off their list.
