I really couldn't get used to the layout of this place. The hallway has floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors for every room, with curtains behind them. I kept worrying the door wasn't properly locked and didn't fall asleep until 3 AM one night, feeling really uneasy. This room type just isn't for me.
The soundproofing was generally okay, I didn't hear noise from next door. However, it's a high-ceilinged corridor, so if anyone spoke too loudly, you'd hear everything.
Putting aside my personal issues with the above, everything else deserves high praise. The hygiene was excellent, visibly clean, and the effective layout made it feel very functional.
Beyond the essentials, there's a bathtub, and the room is spacious enough to spread out your belongings comfortably. There's also a pool downstairs, and I saw many people using it.
The surrounding area is incredibly convenient. Lotus's supermarket is just across the road and cheaper than convenience stores. The 7-Eleven at the intersection is huge and even has seating; on my last day, I had some delicious takeout from there (the famous Here Thai). It's a one-stop shop for everything you need.
Downstairs, there's a Michelin Bib Gourmand noodle place. A street away seems to be a massage street? I found a highly-rated one that was very busy (though personally, I'm not a huge fan of Thai massage). I also bought coconut cake and pad krapow from a small street vendor – so cheap and delicious!
BTS is Bangkok's main transportation, and the On Nut station is an easy walk, even closer than Lotus's supermarket. I never experienced any traffic jams, which was very convenient. Getting to Siam Center and ICONSIAM was a breeze.
