I had a mixed experience at Arun Residence. The location was fantastic, right by the Chao Phraya River and close to major attractions such as Wat Arun and Wat Pho. I loved the beautiful view from my room, and the breakfast was decent with good options. However, I faced some serious issues with the front desk staff who were unhelpful during a troubling incident with a taxi, which really soured my overall impression. 😕
