Asoke Residence Sukhumvit by UHG

This is recent stays together. This place is close to blue line, airport link and canal boats. Getting around is easy. There is a gym and pool that are small but nice. Staff is helpful and nice. They let me check in very early for a reason amount as I had an overnight flight. But there is inconsistency at check in, sometimes they want a deposit sometimes not. Price is reasonable when everything is considered together. Cleanliness, the linen is clean. Surfaces seem to be wiped down. In the kitchenette there was grease buildup above the burners. Food particles on the wall behind the sink. Both bathroom were in need of real cleaning, one looked like someone spit toothpaste on the back side, the other a used towel was hanging on the hook. Housekeeping obviously doesn’t look at the back of the doors. Dust and spider webs i. The door louver. Don’t look under the bed. The tub, sink and mirrors were wiped down but old mildew in the bathrooms. Vent didn’t work in one bath and the toilet kept running in the other. One place wires are sticking out of the wall and covered in electrical tape. There is water damage where the paint has buckled out, and it has obviously been this way for a while. AC filters were gross. Spare furniture and mattress left in the stairwells. Maybe it sounds like I am being picky but the rooms were junior suites and could be so much more if they just did deep cleaning and deferred maintenance in the rooms every couple weeks.

Older property with deferred maintenance, but not unclean, that is the only reason for the average score. They are aware of it and sign says they will be remodeling. I got a junior suite for $44. It was bigger than my house in Krabi. Decent breakfast for a reasonable price. Nice gym but didn’t get to use it because of my short stay. Clean pool. Limited view but it is in the heart of Bangkok and again a super good price and value.
