The latest purveyor of cheap stays in Ari, takes budget accommodations to the next level with pod-sized rooms and a craft beer bar
Unlike Japanese-style capsule rooms, which are notorious for being extremely cramped, each pod at LAF Hotel is surprisingly spacious and equipped with two electric sockets, a USB port and a safe. Personal belongings can be kept in lockers that are offered onsite. The common area plays host to a basic breakfast and has a collection of board games that encourages mingling with other guests.
Besides serving as a 24-hour reception and automated check-in booth, the front desk also functions as a homey beer bar and offers a great selection of bottled Thai craft beers. Also, the folks at Bhava Café also provides cold-brew coffee (B90), Thai milk tea (B80) and Happy Potter-inspired butter beer (B90).
