I have just returned home to England from a fantastic 3 week stay at the Valero Guest House i cant believe how friendly the owner Inigo and his staff were with everybody that came to stay they made you feel so comfortable. The rooms which were large and had all you need, they were cleaned everyday,bed linen and towels were changed everyday,the swimming pool was refreshing with plenty of sunbeds to lie on,also there were safety boxes in reception and there was no problem to use them day or night.The Valero is about 15minutes walk from the beach and major nightlife but there are plenty of very good bars and restaurants close to the Valero.all in all an excellent Guest House which feels more like your second home Thanks to Inigo and Staff

We stayed here for 4 nights when first arriving in Phuket. The rooms are extremely basic and the room we were in had very run down furniture but had a big balcony, fridge etc so was still good. The pool was great and there are a few places nearby for food and drink. The beach, shopping centre and bangla road are about 15 minutes walk away which was fine for us, for some reason people seem to hire scooters to go to the shop and back, we just walked everywhere. On our last night the main light wasn't working in our room but the owner came up straight away to fix it for us which was nice. The only thing we really didn't like was the fact that it seemed perfectly normal to have prostitutes staying at the hotel, it was horrible to see them leaving around lunchtime wearing barely any clothes and leaving with the man who had paid for her time. We have been in SE asia now for nearly 3 months we know what goes on but the majority of the hotels we stayed in had a 'no prostitutes' policy which should be standard procedure if you don't want to offend other people staying at the hotel. For that reason we wouldn't come back.

it's a clean guest house..also quite cheap. i booked one room and one extra bed (250 baht) for 750 baht per night in September 2012. No deposit. They said it's because the low season now in September. But the guest house quite far from the Patong beach. If walk, it can take 15 minutes. But it's still OK. Near the exchange, laundry, minimart, and restaurant. So it's a good guest house.
