I decided to stay at the "Best Western Plus The Beachfront" because it is a hotel near the beach and cheap, but clean. I was excited about the fact that I can get to the beach in no time.

Facilities in the Hotel
The hotel had an outdoor pool. It’s nice that it’s between the buildings and not exposed to direct sunlight, but the water temperature was so cold that I couldn’t enter for a long time. There were some shallow pools, so I think it’s good for families with young children.
It was nice that the pool was new and clean and the ground was not slippery.
There was a shower by the pool.
There was a gym.
Towels were prepared at the gym.
There was also a water server.

Beach
The hotel had a private beach, but it was littered with garbage and broken pottery. The water was also not very clear, so it may be best to go to a different beach near by.

Hotel Surroundings
There was a convenience store nearby, but I didn’t use it because it was dangerous because there was no pedestrian crossing on the other side of the road and the road was dark. Similarly, there was a local pharmacy and pizzeria on the other side of the road, and a massage shop next to the hotel. Since Phuket Island itself is big, it took about an hour to get to a popular restaurant. There is nothing in particularly special around the hotel. I did not see many taxis on the streets, so it is best to rent a car or call a taxi.

Staff and Guests
Since there weren’t many guests staying at the hotel, the breakfast buffet was prepared by the staff alone, but they served us politely. The front desk staff also responded politely.
There were many Thai families. The pool was designed to accommodate small children, so I saw small children as well.

Access
It took an hour by car from the airport. There was a massage shop and a convenience store around the hotel. Other than that, there were no outstanding shops. There is no pedestrian crossing and the car is quite fast, so I thought it was scary to cross.

Summary
The bad thing about this hotel is that there aren’t many shops around and it’s inconvenient without a car. Also, the structure is complicated, and you have to go out and feel hot whether you go to the pool or have breakfast. In addition, the beach I was counting on was unfortunate and sometimes difficult to enter. On the other hand, the good points of the hotel are that it is cheap, it is new and clean, and the room is big and comfortable. Also, the staff were kind and the number of guests staying was small, so I didn’t have to worry too much and was able to spend a comfortable time.
