Patang beach in phuket.
Hotel was okay for value. Water heater and lock box weren't working. Employees were friendly. Close to main bangala Road. It was like $25 a day. I don't know it's good or not in Thailand. By American standards, it was good.

Pleasantly surprised at reception experience
Was warmly greeted at reception: like a family member expecting to be home. Smiled and shook my hand. Friendly experience checking in. Was handed my key and advised that my room was on the 2nd floor with a balcony.

I would have given a 3/10 grading but given that it is NOT that expensive, you get what you pay for. Rusty & not working safe, no stool or chair, no table - just cement stab serving as table, housekeeping not that good - once forgot to put kettle in room, once did not refill free coffee sachet. No TV reception for 3 nights. Kettle in room has short wire that u have to hold it in yr hand to boil water. Some electric sockets not working. Asked for room change, had to pay extra. OK if u r anything goes kinda guy. The only thing good is location, very near beach and walking street. 5/10 is my final grade.

I enjoyed my stay here. I'm traveling around Asia and needed a convenient place to sleep at night that was close to the beach and all the festivities PaTong has to offer. The Alley way in which it is located is safe and usually populated by the surrounding shops and restaurants. The staff is very friendly and will come by to clean your room once or twice a day. The room was nice and quiet and you get what you pay for. The AC kept the room nice and cool as well. I'd recommend this to solo travelers who are looking for an affordable roof over their head while they explore the Island.

I booked this stay for my brother while he was traveling through Thailand. He said to make sure I gave Freedom a great review. He said the room was immaculate and the owners were wonderful people. The property was a block from the beach and very close to the nightlife . He will definitely stay at the Freedom again.

Basic hotel in a great location
This four story guest house is comfortable and has good AC. The bad: The bathroom's shower is next to the toilet with no divider, so the entire bathroom gets wet. Our window faced the wall of the next building a foot away, so there was little light I was very annoyed by constant AC drips falling to the concrete a few stories below. Closing the bathroom window would alleviate the noise, but the window was stuck open. This four story building has no elevator and no breakfast. Hotel reception was staffed 50% of the time during our 5 nights, so communication was difficult due to staff's limited English and no phone in the room. The good: Housekeeping understood my request for beach towels retrieved. The location of this basic hotel is excellent and is it's best draw. It is only two blocks from the public Patong Beach, where two chaises and an umbrella can be rented for $5 per day. Drink and food service are expensive there, but a convenience store is located on the beach and you can bring things back to the beach. Bangla Street, where there is so much going on night and day, including live music, is two blocks away as well, and a huge, unique mall is another block away. Although the area is noisy with non-stop action, this hotel is tucked away on a side street and we heard no outside noise. It is a pretty basic hotel, but prices are higher in Phuket. Transportation is readily available, and across the alley is an amazing Italian restaurant.

Hotel was a little bit messy when I arrived. Room is like super basic (what you pay for) but the thing is that it’s very close to the Main Street which is what you looking for. I would not stay there again, BUT it is like super cheap and in good location, so if you are not picky and looking for good accommodation, then this is for you :)

Close to Patong , rooms clean but a little awkward
The good thing about this hotel is that it is located a few meters away from bangla road and Patong beach. Very good location. However, the hotel and the rooms are pretty basic. There was a window in my room but it overlooked a cement wall that was 5 cm away from the window glass... So no air or no view at all. The shower is splashing all over the bath room and on the toilet as there are no separation between the toilet and the shower. The A/C is right above the two twin beds put together to make 1 king bed which makes it hard to control the temperature in the room and the one you feel on the bed. Also, the bedsheets are very short and you find your feet sticking out or your neck is not covered and it could be anoying. Finally, the safety box is a little thin metal box that is very light and not fixed anywhere... So anybody that gets in your room could easily take away the little metal box and open it with a few kicks on the thin door. Anyways... It is an ok place to stay if you want to be close to the action and get a good price.

Dear Alexander, Thank you for your feedback, you forget to tell the room you booked is the cheapest one... is normal for the location and the price you cannot have a huge room with Jacuzzi and ocean view, in the invoice is write the name of the room, NO VIEW... Sorry to read you didn't enjoy our strong air-con, it's easy to menage, in the remote you can control: direction, temperature and power of fan ;) The toilet is small and is in proper Thai style :D We are in Thailand, this mean land of Freedom, did you pretend to have a huge safety box in your room? Trust me not need. We are glade to be in the middle of the night life and 50 mt from the beach, we can fight with a nice prices, did you see close to us is only 5 stars hotels and hostels we are the only little guest house in the area, and we are so proud of us... nice balance between price and offer.
