The Base Central Pattaya is a condo building so you are not staying in a hotel room but a short term rental on a private condo.
The property is composed of two buildings. Building A has the roof top pool, while Building B has a 3rd floor pool, as well as, a fitness room, a children's’ room and a roof top common area. All of the common areas like the lobby, elevators and halls are not air conditioned, so the only AC is in your room.
Check In is very different. The owner will contact you and have his housekeeper or agent meet you to let you in. There is a guardhouse that you cannot pass until the housekeeper/agent has you processed with security. This means the property is off limits to non-guests so it makes it very safe.
My owner, Mr. Peng was most gracious and helpful. His unit was comfortable and clean. It included separate AC units in the living room and bedroom, so it was very comfortable. There is a washer on the patio and places to hang dry your clothes. This was very helpful as it was Songkran.
If you don’t mind the lack of a reception desk and restaurant/bar amenities, it is a good option to stay comfortably and at a great value.
Finally, the property is short distances from the beach, a shopping mall, plenty of restaurants, bars, massages and convenience stores. It’s a partying part of town, so be prepared. The great thing about the property is that it is sheltered enough so your unit will be quiet and you won’t be assaulted by street sounds all day.
