Basic but very clean and simple rooms in an old but refurbished house make Ban Jaidee a better option than most of the other basic guesthouses in town. The French/Thai owners have created a homey space, with very clean white sheets on the beds and towels supplied. Rooms are a good size and spotlessly clean, although there’s a lack of other furniture. All rooms share bathrooms with some nice decorative touches. The decorative style extends to the open plan common spaces, where the owners' original works of art are displayed: lamps on stands made of driftwood and a computer chair constructed out of an old barber's chair. In the high season they serve English and French style breakfasts which yield rave reviews. The guest house has a great location; just a few minutes walk from the market yet in a small enough back street to be quiet and safe. There are a few small enterprises in the adjacent houses such as massage and internet.

nice place - 1st April, 2009
Trat is a nice city and Ban Jaidee is a nice, cheap place in a good location. I got a room with fan, shared bathroom for THB150. They kept my big backpack for free while I was in Ko Maak.

Friendly - 31st December, 2008
Mean is a great host and had excellent advice about the town. She was always smiling and kept things casual. The room was relaxing and the one we had overlooked a fountain 1 floor below. Trat is worth staying at if you want to relax and avoid the tourist hot spots. The local food is awesome.

Loved it! - 1st December, 2007
Well, sufficent to say that I almost stayed two weeks and really liked being here. Had nothing else to do, while waiting for a friend to arrive and no desire to go anywhere else. The night market is close by, where you get great and cheap food. If I ever come back to Trat, I'll stay here again.

Best place to stay in Trat! - 20th December, 2005
I have stayed many times at Baan Jai Dee guesthouse in Trat. The owner Mean is a very friendly, helpful and always cheerful young lady. Her English is very well and she can advise you with many practical tips for your travels. The rooms are very clean and there is a lot of space to sit and relax. They also serve very good breakfast. You really have to stay here!
