Description
The large, reasonably new P.U. offers good value and is often full, so book ahead. It is on a sub-soi off of Naresuan Soi 1, which makes for a quiet stay, but the attitude of some staff members can be rather off putting. There is a small garden, common area and a large restaurant inside. The rooms all have private bathroom and are good and clean although some of the walls are rather thin. They provide free lockers, laundry service, bicycle or moped hire and an in-house travel agent can arrange tours of Ayutthaya and further afield.

1. They try to charge you more than the price on the website
2. First room's windows didnt lock
3. Staff unhelpful
4. Overpriced
Rooms are alright, but nothing special.
You could probably get a better deal elsewhere
Tour arranger 1st, hostess 2nd -

Stayed for 2 nights and the room wasn't cleaned. Fortunately for me, the room had 2 beds, and 2 towels, and I was on my own.... Something really stupid was the fact that I was told not to use toiletpaper to wipe my ass, but to use the spraying system, because the toiletpaper could get stuck in the sewersystem.... The bathroom was really small and everything got wet when using the shower.
Some good points about the room where the airco, fridge and tv, although the tv gave a scrambled screen on the more interesting channels...
The hostess arranged our boattour and a tuktuk to take us to tempels, an elephant farm and a monkey tempel. This was arranged very good.
All in all, it's an poor/okay guesthouse. If you stay here, make sure to check out the Jazzbar which is just around the corner.
just okay -

i had made a reservation, but when i arrived they didn't seem to have my reservation. anyway we didn't have much time so we just took the only room they said they had available. was ok for one night, not bad, basic.
we had to leave at 7am the next morning and there was no problem with that (in reference to another person's comment below about problems with having an early start).
the tuk-tuk driver associated with the guest house was nice, he took us around to see the sights. the staff person (i think she was the owner) did seem a bit pushy on trying to get us to follow her pre-planned tour and go where she suggested, when we kept telling her what our plan was. it worked out though.
watch out for the owner! -

Lovely clean comforatble rooms with a great fan and shower. Watch out for the owner she forced our friends to agree to a 2nd night as she said the buses north were all full. Then we found she never booked our bus tickets the following evening saying we had not paid and continued to argue even after the reciept was produced. She ended up bribing a bus driver to let us on and my boyfriend had to stand all the way to Chaing Mai. We found her a really unpleasant woman she was quite abusive and hysterical at times even though we were very calm and reasonable...for this reason i would not recommend the guesthouse.
Not a Bad Option -

We had a clean and comfortable air-con room with TV (not a good channel selection however - no BBC for example), hot water and fridge for only 500 baht. Towels and other nice touches included. Best of all, the owner let us check in early (before 8 am), as we had arrived earlier than expected. Excellent if expensive laundry service, and a great automatic scooter rental for touring the ruins. The owner speaks decent English (and apparently Japanese too). Our only complaint was that she became visibly upset when we had breakfast some place else instead of eating in her cafe.
make sure you plan to sleep in -

Though the rooms were basic and clean, the owner might become openly agitated with you should you require an early start...even though you'll be well equipped with a gate key.
