Tara Raft

Been many times before, located right around the corner from the war cemetery and museum.
Rooms are clean and beds are very comfortable, however they are really starting to show a lot of wear and tear😔 The bathrooms smell really really bad after people on the raft start flushing! We bought some plastic cups to cover the drains but didn’t help much. There is only one older lady doing the cleaning, who is very nice and helpful but she is only there until 12 in the day. The windows were so dirty we could hardly see the view, so I got some rags and cleaned them and also the refrigerator. There is a young man that will take your money, 700bt, and will help bring your bags down the steep stairs, but he seems to be very unhappy and a small boy that sleeps on a couch in the “ lobby” that will at least put the Wifi code in your phone for you as it isn’t posted anywhere. Very small bathroom but is efficient. Nice deck in the back to watch the party boats go by in the evening.
Great restaurant next door owned by a friendly Dutch guy. We ate there 3 times which is a lot for us.
I hope we can come back again to some improvements because the location is so great but unfortunately won’t come back until it seems someone starts to care about the place. A real shame.

Outside looks pretty rough, but when you get down inside, it's ok. Staff was probably the biggest downside as they were rarely available and not very happy to be there. But when I asked for help with Wifi, I did get it. Room was clean, air conditioning and fridge are very modern, bathroom was clean. And as promised it is floating right on the water.
