Kanchanaburi

Tamarind Guesthouse
Older Guesthouse with a few raft rooms, 100 meters off main tourist strip, quiet except for occasional speed boats early morning to dusk, some Karaoke from night cruise barges.

500 Baht/night AC twin raft room via Agoda

Medium-small room on raft, quite clean, no shelves/chairs, AC works, wireless sketchy in room, outside ok. Attached non-flushing toilet and warm shower, netted windows, veranda furnished.  Large common terrace, airy and good wifi. No food or drinks available. 7/11 a 2-minute walk. Staff low key.

Thai Garden Inn
About a dozen well maintained bungalows set around the pretty manicured garden area or the fair-sized, spotlessly upkept pool. About a ten minute walk across the river from the main restaurant and bar section of Menem Kwai Rd. Fairly quiet.

850 Baht/night fan bungalow via Agoda

Comfortable (ca. 18qm) bungalow with 2 beds, clean, 2 workspaces, 1 bedside lamp, a closet squeezed in behind the minibar, a chair, noisy fan, roomy bathroom with walled off shower, netted windows but wide cracks around door, good wifi, small veranda furnished, complimentary bottled water and breakfast, (the typical, missable toast, eggs, butter, jam, abysmal coffee guesthouse breakfast).
