    Super hilfsbereit und freundlich!
    Unser Flieger hatte fast 1 Stunde Verspätung, weshalb wir erst gegen 22 Uhr bei Paapu House ankamen. Paapu und ihr Freund warteten bereits auf uns und nahmen uns herzlichst auf! Uns wurde gleich ein Willkommensgetränk von Paapu vorbereitet, während ihr Freund Roger uns auf einer Karte erklärte und erzählte, was wir alles in Chiang Mai besichtigen könnten und wie generell die Stadt und Altstadt aufgebaut sind. Auch wurde uns gleich gesagt, dass am Samstag (03.02.2024) ein Flower Festival in Chiang Mai ist, wo wir eine Parade von 7 bis 10 am besichtigen könnten, wenn wir Lust haben.
    Das war wirklich klasse!
    Unser Zimmer war mit zwei Einzelbetten und Klimaanlage sowie Ventilator ausgestattet. Es wurden auch Handtücher, Oropax, Taschentücher, Hausschuhe und weitere kleine nützlichen Dinge bereitgestellt. Das war sehr lieb!
    Sehr leckeres, modernes Frühstück mit Lachs und Avocado.

    Dieses Homestay war unser erstes Mal. Wir wollten es unbedingt mal ausprobieren. Jedoch hatten wir bereits am ersten Abend bemerkt, dass Gemeinschaftsbäder eher nichts für uns sind. Wir hatten ein schlechtes Gewissen, weil alles so lieb und herzlich eingerichtet war, dass wir aufgrund dieses einzigen Themas in ein Hotel umziehen wollten.
    Am nächsten Morgen waren wir nach dem äußerst leckeren Frühstück bei Paapu und sie zeigte vollstes Verständnis. Wir waren sehr überrascht über ihre Reaktion und gleichzeitig auch sehr erleichtert! Wir sind uns ziemlich sicher, dass uns in Deutschland (unser Heimatland) niemand so verständnisvoll entgegnet wäre!
    Paapu meinte sofort, dass sie das verstehen könne und sie unser Zimmer sofort, nachdem wir ausgecheckt haben, wieder online stellen würde. Falls sie für die von uns gebuchten 3 Nächte jemanden finden würde, bekommen wir das Geld pro gebuchter Nacht wieder erstattet. Falls sie niemanden finden würde, können wir einmal kostenlos zum Frühstücken kommen.
    So herzlich! Wir wären damit voll einverstanden gewesen, wenn sie gesagt hätte, sie behält das Geld, weil sie ja trotzdem den Aufwand hat und das Zimmer nach einer Nacht säubern musste.
    Aber sie bestand darauf. :-)

    Am Ende konnte sie für zwei Nächte Ersatz finden. Wir bekamen somit diese beiden Nächte erstattet. Wir kamen zum Bedanken und Verabschieden nochmal zum Frühstücken vorbei. Es war wieder grandios lecker!! :-)

    La Paapu House è un locale bellissimo, situato in ottima posizione per visitare il centro di Chiang Mai. La signora Paapu è super gentile e ci ha dato diverse indicazioni su cosa vedere in base al tempo disponibile.
    Ogni giovedì c'è musica dal vivo, purtroppo non abbiamo potuto goderne, e ogni sabato c'è una jam session di Bonghi, molto interessante.
    Consigliatissimo.
    Le stanze sono essenziali ma confortevoli, i bagni in comune puliti.

    I had a nice stay at Chutarat guest house. I could walk from her place to the old city it was really close and as a bonus there was an amazing live music on Thursday (every Thursday). Thank you for your smile every day and your kindness. You made my first week so smooth.

    Fun and kind host, extremely dedicated. The place is beautiful, it has a concert space and a bar. It feels to be at home as there are limited rooms. The host even thought to wish me an happy birthday best place where I've been.

    Paapu House is a Gem! I felt welcomed and well taken care of from the very first day. My room was clean and cozy and the area downstairs is nice to chill and/or work at.
    Among other activities, there are local bands playing once a week or so which is an amazing opportunity to have a good time and get to know interesting people.
    If I wanted to do some Activities in Chiang Mai Paapu would help organise them for me. So there was hardly anything to organise for me, which was nice!

    As I traveled by myself I can really recommend this place especially for single travellers.

    Since I had an wonderfull experience at Paapu House and didn't mind the music I most definitely will be returning to this place. Either with a friend or by myself again.

    Thank you so much to Paapu and Roger! You guys are amazing and I can't wait to see you again.

    This is a really cool place with a very cool vibe. Paapu is so inviting and help make your stay one to remember. She can help setup with transportation, tours and great restaurants in the area. Everyone I met here were very friendly and open about their travels. The shared bathrooms were never a problem. I stayed in a room without air-con and I stayed in a room with air-con, both were nice, clean and organized. The location is convenient to all the things I wanted to see in Chiang Mai. The best part about this place was the live music on Thursday nights!

    Paapu is a lovely, smiling, and caring host, making sure that everyone feels comfy and welcome!
    Her Guesthouse is a lovely place, with many small details that make it quite homelike. We enjoyed our stay a lot. Thank you!
