Beware of 'hidden' charge

Stayed here from 31 May to 3 June 2017, we're group of 7 so we booked their grande suites 3 bedroom, in the booking page they mentioned max capacity is 9 people, so we think this is suffice for us.
What we didn't know is there's a small button to hover and write how many people staying (I used mobile browser) before you click 'book', and since I didn't click on this small arrow, by default guests staying is 3 people only. after clicked book, there's only personal information to be filled, no question about number of people staying.
We knew this only when we're checking in, they asked extra charge for extra person.
We're tired from our trip from Khao Yai and finding a hotel is not easy in that area, and if we cancel our stay they will still charged us for 1 night stay so we decided to pay the extra, the manager (Korn) gave us a discount, but it didn't feel like one.
The room itself was spacious and nice, but the location is another issue. Even we already know from the reviews that the location is far from Central Bangkok, but we still surprise because the location was wayyyy too far and not to mention the bad traffic, even on midnight!
Other transportation option is BTS, the nearest BTS is 15 minutes walk, and apparently walking under Bangkok's heat on the summer is not a wise choice so we decide to use Hotel's tuktuk service, but they only have 1 tuktuk that can only fit 4 persons.
So, I definitely would not stay in this hotel again.
Great room, reasonable price and good location.

We took a punt on this hotel and were not quite sure what to expect, in the end we decided on the 2 bedroom suites and were extremely pleased with the room. The room itself consisted of a kitchen, spacious living room, 2 en suite bedrooms, one of them being a master with a larger bathroom, including a separate bath and shower. The lobby was connected to a supermarket which was also handy. The location was a little further out than other hotels but weren't too expensive in a taxi to get to the terminal 21 area. A better option is a short walk down to the sky train and then a 22 baht train to the busier area. This was the best option during the day when the traffic was heavier but later in the night, after a night out for example a taxi was quick and easy.
Average hotel, bad location

Jasmine Grande Residence was an alright hotel, but I would not stay here again. The location was way too far out from central Bangkok. It took at least 45 minutes to get anywhere from this hotel. It is near a BTS stop, which is nice, but I would still have rather just stayed in a better location. Hotel room smelled funny at some points.
Cons:
- Bad location
- Funny smell
Pros:
- 3 bedroom suites, lots of space
- Convenience store attached
Lovely hotel, watch out for the scams!

Hotel was lovely!
- Staff were very friendly and helpful.
- Lobby was beautiful and modern.
- Rooms are modern with amazing views across Bangkok, and so spacious!
- Pool is good, slightly cold and very quiet but nice way to end a busy, hot day!
- Location is very far out from central Bangkok although it is located only a short walk away from the BTS line so you can get a train into central Bangkok.
- Hardly any places to eat around the hotel apart from a few street food vans
- Breakfast is small but has lots to offer: heart shaped eggs were my favourite!
Only bad thing is the guy outside selling tours - he will try and get you to purchase higher paid trips/more than what you are looking for. Have your wits about you and be strong when he asks you if you want to buy more!
Hotel with a mini-mart attached - how convenin

This is a nice apartment that served as a hotel. The full panel window in the master bedroom from run from floor to ceiling and the another full length window glass panel can be view from the North and East area. From the vantage of 36th floor the nighttime view is beautiful. I can’t believe that for a $43/night+ tax = $54 net I got such a deal. However, the location sucks. You need a cab to get in and out so after check in at 7pm I stay put and checkout the next day at noon.
There is one 36” flat screen TV in the living room and one in the master bed room. There is two bathrooms; one for bathtub and another bathroom for shower. Both bathroom has toilet.
The kitchenette has nothing (no silverware, pot and pans, plates, cutting board, wash cloth, paper towel… etc). There is an electric kettle, 2 mug, 2 glasses, 2 tablespoon, some packet of coffee and tea and sugar and cream enough to have 2 beverage.
However, you can make yourself a nice breakfast buying essential stuff from the mini supermarket build in to the Jasmine Grande Residence apartment. It is just like a regular supermarket that you can get fresh egg, half boiled egg, boiled egg, pastries, bread, milk product, yogurt, instant noodle….
You will be given password for internet. However, one password only allow for one device to log on. So if you have a phone, an ipad, and a laptop then you are out of luck to hook up all 3 devices to internet.
This apartment hotel is also cater to group tour from China, at 8pm a bus load of tourist arrived and the reception hall become one giant chorus with shouting and laughing and talking and yelling. Such is the scene everywhere whenever you see Chinese tourists.
The mattress is one of the hardest and gave me backache. If you have back trouble (backache) stay away from this hotel.
I give a big thumb up for the porter service when checking in and checking out. They were very helpful in unloading luggage from the taxi and bringing up to the room.
