This was a great place for us to break on our 8 month trip around the world. The wifi was wonderful, so we could catch up on posting and planning. And nice to have a pool and gym in the building. BTS (Skytrain) literally could not be any closer, which is great. But, even with that, you're pretty far out from downtown Bangkok. It was 15-30 minutes on the train to many places we went, and even further for lots of the major tourist spots (which aren't right on the train line).
