J&J Guesthouse
Now with a riverside location

What we say: 
Now fully settled into its new riverside location a short walk from the old spot (now occupied by 4T Guesthouse), Belgian owned J&J offers a handful of rustic but comfortable wood bungalows with attached hot water bathrooms set around a small lawn. Rooms come with fan or air-con, and although they're not huge, we found the beds to be firm but comfortable and there are some nice touches like stone floors, hardwood walls, ceramic bowl sinks, TVs, stained glass panel windows and small front porches. Even so, we couldn't help feeling these rooms were overpriced (at least by Sukhothai standards), especially after coming from Phuaroon, which offers much bigger and better equipped rooms for less money. J&J is a short walk down Soi Kuha Suwan from Phra Ruang bridge, and they offer free WiFi, motorbike rental and a pleasant terrace over the river where you can enjoy European-style baked goods.

Watch what you eat... :(
Well yes, you have a pool and if you pay a pretty penny you can have a really nice bungalow like we did (with a comfy bed), but otherwise, the rooms are overprice (not reflected on this website) and not that great. However, be careful what you eat. Within just a couple hours of eating dinner, I was hit with terrible food poisoning from their restaurant. I know this can happen anywhere, but it was more the reaction of the owners that upset us. He and his wife were rude, uncaring (never once asked how I was or if I needed anything) and inconsiderate. All they cared about was getting their money. It doesn't make being sick any easier when someone is yelling at you that it could NEVER have been their food that made me sick (recent events in the previous days could not have made anything else possible). If you want food that won't put you in the hospital or nice smiles, you won't find that here. Very disappointed.

Pretty Good for the low season
We stayed in a 350B a night fan room with hot shower. Clean, not bad value, but not particularly cheap either. Nice swimming pool, nice grounds and fairly helpful staff. Laundry was THE most expensive I've had done in all me 3 trips to Thailand. Food if good to average but a little on the pricey side. Internet is available but via a strange card system where you pay 50B and have to log in... Fairly busy and plenty of backpackers and families about even in the low season. Would recommend.

Swimming Pool!!!!!!!!!!!!
A swimming pool in deed!! If you need that! At 350 for a large clean bungalow, with hot water & fan set in a nice garden, it is value for money. Near to the town (new town).

Don't rely on a reservation...
Without wishing to rant I do have an intolerance to being shoddily treated... Despite Booking a room here at least 1 week in advance and going through the motions of sending confirmation emails and subsequently receiving them etc we were astonished when we arrived to be told they did not have a room for us. It looked like a nice place, my girlfriend and I were both looking forward to the added bonus of a pool and I suppose people who stayed there will vouch for it but I question the integrity / business nous of anyone who has a reservation process in place but 'forgets' about their customers when they turn up. Therefore, I will not be recommending this place - try the Garden House just up the road (nearer town).

room rates need updating
Nice place, helpfull and friendly staff. Prices are a lot higher: 800 for a bungalow with airon and 350 for a twin room with fan (no flush toilet, but buckets). Good breakfast, home made bread and coffee in real mugs! The place should get some more character, but it's very clean and well-run.

prices are not up to date
i slept one night in this GH, and it cost me 800 bhat for a Dbl A/C private b'room bungalow on low season. on the bright side, it is a good place to stay, with hot shower, TV, and a good restaurant (breakfast isn't include). my advice: book in advance or call first to check out price and room availability

Good Location, Well-Run Place
Agree that the beds are quite hard. Very nice spot in a fairly quiet area, and just a short walk to the main street, night market, etc. Helpful staff and very good facilities. Room was tidy and comfortable, towels were provided, though an extra bed sheet would have been nice. The deluxe bungalows in the back near the swimming pool were beautiful, though out of our price range. The pool was an added bonus as a swim in the river wasn't in the cards for fear of an ear infection. Would recommend this place.
