i stayed in room 107 and nice view over pool. The staff are friendly and hotel GF. I walked to Bangla from there but found the girls would'nt walk as too far for them. You can hear the noises from rooms on either side and if you lose safe key, it costs 3000 or 2000 baht
the tuk tuk is about 250 -300 baht or 30 baht by bike taxi. All in all i would recommend Palm View Resort Hotel.
