  Comments from Utopians:

  "Just finished my first trip to Patong where I first stayed at Adonis Guest House. Thereafter I tried some other places but Adonis was the best. Everything was first class, but what I really liked was how quiet it was. Despite being in the Paradise Complex, it is in a very quiet spot. If uninterrupted sleep (night or day recovery) is important then I can't recommend Adonis highly enough. Also the owner was very helpful with emailed advice before I came." -- jcdani2009, Feb 1, 2011
