I decided to stay at "A One The Royal Cruise Hotel Pattaya," because it is located along Pattaya's Beach Road. It was the most reasonable hotel that includes breakfast. I wanted to relax on the balcony, so I also liked the fact that there is a large balcony where you can enjoy the ocean view.

What is the Deluxe Room with Balcony like?
Guest room entrance door.
There was a bathroom at the entrance.
My first impression about the room was that it was very small. I was staying alone, but there may not be enough space for two people to stay together.
The bed was comfortable to sleep on. There were hard pillows and soft pillows prepared on the bed.
TV across the bed.
A desk under the TV.
The room seen from the window.
There was a balcony.
The balcony was spacious with a table and chairs.
My room was on the 8th floor, so I had a view of the ocean. Depending on the season you can see the sunset over Pattaya Beach. Some rooms that are 5th floor and bellow may not have a view of the ocean.

Bathroom
There was a shower room in the bathroom.
There were two types of showers, a fixed type and a manual type, but when hot water was used, the water pressure became weak immediately and almost no water came out. It was difficult to take a shower using hot water. Also, the partition of the shower room was halfway, so the floor got wet.
Toilet
Sink
There was shampoo, conditioner, body cream, comb, cotton swabs, razor, shower cap, toothbrushe and toothpaste.

Facilities in the hotel
The hotel has two outdoor swimming pools, both facing Pattaya Beach Road. It’s like a club-style pool with a beach bar and DJ booth where DJs will play music. It is designed so that only guests can see the inside. To my knowledge, there is no other similar pool in Pattaya and I thought it was interesting with a fresh idea.
The other pool is a very ordinary pool which is designed for children. It is open until 20:00 and is lit up at night.
There was a gym on the 2nd.
The gym was very spacious.
Muay Thai practice course.
There were activities and programs being held at the gym.
Sauna
A spa on the 2nd floor.
A hair salon.

Hotel Surroundings
Although there many sightseeing stops in the area, I think it is suitable for those who want to relax and enjoy their stay without being in a busy environment. There are small cafes, massage shops, souvenir shops, etc. in the back street, and they are small so I think it would be fun to take a leisurely stroll. There were some laundry shops and small hotels for long-term stayers. It’s a short walk to the central Festival and Walking Street, but you can easily catch a Son Theo bike taxi from Pattaya Beach Road. The A-One Hotel is a long-established hotel, so the taxi drivers will have no trouble taking you back.
Shops around the hotel.

Staff and Guests
There were not many guests staying due to the Corona virus. The staff moved very slowly and did not smile as much. Unlike other hotels, it seemed like this hotel does not attract many tourists that are Thai. I would imagine many Chinese tourists staying here as a group.

Access
The access from the airport was good. Since it is located in North Pattaya, there is some congestion around Terminal 21, but you do not have to worry about congestion in the city center. The area around the hotel is convenient with restaurants, massage shops and convenience stores nearby. It is very quiet at night.
Pattaya Beach just across the beach road in front of the hotel.

Summary
The reason I decided to stay this time was that the breakfast was included, the price was cheap and the location was good, but the room was small, the hotel was outdated and the staff were unfriendly. I don’t think I’ll ever stay here again. Usually, I think that the main group customers are from China. There were areas that could be fixed, but everything seemed like a mess. This hotel did not satisfy me, but it may be interesting to those who like it to stay at a hotel with a club pool.
