The VC@Suanpaak has buildings set amidst lush, blooming gardens with paths curving through intriguing statues and other artwork, creating a quiet and peaceful atmosphere, even though it is only a block from a major shopping mall, and a five-minute drive to the airport. Our 2 bedroom- 2 bath apartment with an open living-dining room and two balconies was immaculate, well-furnished, and super spacious. Linens, towels, dishes, and other amenities were all good quality. The air conditioners installed in the ceilings appear to be later add-ons, but they worked, and the plumbing was first-rate. We did not use the pool and sauna.
Only the restaurant was a disappointment—but our welcoming fruit plate was fresh and delicious. The staff was outstanding—friendly, respectful, and helpful, giving us suggestions of where to go, calling for us what turned out to be the cleanest, most comfortable taxi we had in Thailand, and collecting our packed luggage at checkout and having it all loaded in the van when we returned three hours later for our trip to the airport.
