Madam Guesthouse

Unusual atmosphere

What we say:

Tucked away down this leafy backstreet, Madam Guesthouse fills the gap in the market for cheap, silent, fan-cooled rooms. As a converted house, staying at Madame has a very homely feel, requiring guests to share their lobby with the family kitchen. Corridors and staircases are small to say the least, and it's up to the individual to draw the line between cosy and cramped. Rooms at Madame are good for the price; clean and quiet, with little chance of disturbances from the neighbours. The shared bathrooms are pour flush and cold water only, but are clean and functional. For the lucky few, pretty balconies and good views can be found, but otherwise guests can relax on the Thai style benches out the front. Madame is a good alternative for backpackers, particularly those hoping to avoid the bright lights of the city.

Less concrete than others

In the neighbourhood. The owners are personable, and like their beer. During our week-long stay, most other guests were long-term expats in Thailand. Our room was pleasant enough with cheap wood paneling, high ceilings, hardwood floors, and a sit-n-pour toilet. Cold water only, of course. All in all, a good place to stay.
