Just some feedback re the Darwin which I stayed at Recently
Location
Located in Sukumvit Soi 4 about 200 meters up Soi 4 on the left hand side driving from Sukumvit.
Very close to the action in Nana Plaza and also good shopping, walking distance from the Skytrain. Easy to get to the airport via the tollways.
Price
I booked and paid on line using www.thaihoteldiscounts.com
it cost me 1,830 Baht for a single room.
I checked with the receptionist and to pay cash would cost 1900 Baht.
So you save 70 Baht if you book on line, but if you pay cash you do not have to give your credit card number. Hence in future I would pay cash as I do not like giving my credit card number.
Room Quality
The hotel is new, very nice, the room was nice but I thought small. Mind you I might have been spoiled by staying as the Aspen Suites in Soi 2 where you get a huge room. However it is adequate.
No complementary water etc.
Also no major news channel on the TV, no BBC or CNN or aljazera.
Food
Not sure I did not eat there but seems adequate.
Staff
All staff are friendly
LB friendly
No problem getting guests into your room, they have to give their ID card and you get a call when they leave to make sure you are OK.
Deposit
You pay a deposit of 500 Baht and get this back no problem.
So it was OK but not my ideal as the room size was on the small size.
Hope this has been usefull to you.
