Sarin house was mostly clean (most places are less clean than American standards, so it is hard to judge cleanliness and condition for properties, but it didn't feel dirty - stains on sheets and towels, dust and hair left in certain places, but overall a fine place to sleep). It also had amazing wifi - some of the best in SEA - and very close to the pier area. Great restaurants and bars within walking distance and a bit off the tourist path (esp compared to Sairee beach) so you won't have to worry about being kept up by parties.
Biggest issue we had with this place is OMG IT WAS SO HOT. It was literally hotter inside than outside. We originally booked it with just a fan because we found ourselves too cold at night with the AC in our previous accommodation, but we even paid extra to get the AC. If it had worked, that would have been wonderful, but it didn't. Luckily the owner was nice and gave us our money back for it after she tried and couldn't fix it, but we were still stuck in that super hot room. This place taught us the lesson to book one night, see how the place is in real life, and book more nights from them!
Overall, I can't recommend room #1 here, but good location, awesome wifi, and very nice and helpful owner.
