I only spent a month there and still didnt know the directions to the pool
Think i'll try it this time round, a dip might clear my head better of a morning, whats the opening times?
Fair warning though, any reports of beached albino whales around november time, its me 
oh, i might also be the cause of beached very pink whale reports after a day or two

And the food is good at the pool. There is construction going on around it so it can be noisy.

I have been asking around for good hotels(as you can see how many times i have asked). Since the deluxe party from Valhall hotel is booked already. I am leaning towards summer breeze.
Since i have read a lot of goode posting about CSB, then i am leaning towards it.
I want to get the the summer suite, but if isn't available i will get the superior room(yes, i want a window).
To use the pool, what do you need to show that you are a guess of CSB to use it for free?

You couldn't even be bothered to read this thread !!! The answer to your question has already been answered here. Else do a search on Summer Breeze, lots more information and comments.

The BM from Kuala Lumpur lets the guy from the Phillipines have it.
You go to the front desk at the SummerBreeze and ask for a pass. For every question a simple answer.

It's basically the length of Bengala. Easy peasy. I do a lot of walking in Patong. Exercise is good! Work off some of the Singha.
Summerbreeze is centrally located. 5 minutes to the MaiThai Bar, around the cornor from the discos. Seafood Restaurant #6 is right there. Crawling distance to all the necessities.
I never rent a bike. Too dangerous.

Have you considered a Superior Room as an option? They're a bit more spacious than the Standard Rooms and usually have windows facing San Sabai (the one I had did at least).

Not that nice. I was there for a party last visit that was fun. I think at one time it was a hot spot. Looks a little beat up at this point.

Second what Pinot said. Looks a bit like a Disney Theme aHotel that hasn't had any maintenance done in about 15 years.

The swimming pool that the CSB, Orchid, and other hotels guest that goes too, how is it? Plenty of tourist, especially single ladies? How much is the charge if your not a guest of this hotels?

summer breeze
I've just got back to uk having spent almost a month at Summer Breeze,I had a fantastic holiday due largly to Bill and the staff at S/B.From the girls who clean the rooms ( they made fun of me all the time, I loved it,great fun) to the day time staff who were always happy to help and did everything with a smile to Somsack the night time Governer, a real diamond this guy,he really looked after me, and got me out of more than one potentially sticky situation, a great guy, honest,totally reliable and very diplomatic.Bill is a real Gent,I went to him for advise on a few occassions and he always helped me out,professional, very friendly and tactfull.The hotel is spotlessly clean, the food is great and the staff are fantastic and the pool is a 90 second walk around the corner,just get a pass or passes (you may want to take last nights stunner with you for a rest) grab some towels from reception and your good to go.Its a good size pool well laid out, friendly staff and they serve some tasty thai food.
I have no hesitation in recommending the S/B in fact I already have to a few friends who are planning trips to phuket.I will be back in los in 5 months time and will be staying at S/B if I can get in.
one last tip, if you have a problem and Bills not around ask for his assistant Cathy, this girl is friendly, proffesional, smart as a whip and very beautiful.

good bloke who'll shift your bike back and forth across that road at night to stop the cops slapping a ticket on it at stupid o'clock the next morning.
