In Thai, Sue, the name of the owner and manager of the homestay, means “perfect daughter”. It only takes one night at Kaslong homestay to realize that her name suits Sue like a glove.
The place is a traditional and family house transformed in a homestay by Sue, for the sole purpose to keep the house where she grew up alive and well maintained. I have rarely seen such a beautiful homestay.  And Sue did everything she could to help us have the best possible time in Chiang Mai starting from giving us advice (including addresses for great local traditional food) to getting us an electric stove so we could prepare the vegetables freshly bought on the market.
The house is on 2 levels. Most of the rooms are on the second floor and Sue gives so much attention to details that the room closest to the road is available for rent on weekends only because some guests could be bothered by the noise due to the traffic early in the morning!
The place is super clean, outside the city center and yet close to it, wifi connexion is great, there is plenty of space for yoga practice - which we love doing every morning - or quiet reading, renting of bicycles or motorbikes can be arranged easily, free coffee, biscuits and drinking water are available all day long.
Breakfast is not included but you can order and the house keeper will prepare it for you (she does not speak English but she is really kind and a great cook).
We definitely recommend this homestay.

A beautiful traditional house turned into a homestay

We stayed at the Kaslong House for 4 nights and it was one of the best accomodations we had in Thailand. Hosts were superfriendly and welcoming and the House is just beautiful. The only "disadvantage" is, that you have to walk 20min to reach Oldtown, but if you have a scooter its totally fine. You can also rent bicycles for 60baht from the hosts.

just awesome

"+":
- beautiful, 100-hundred-years-old wooden house
- quiet neighbourhood
- extremely nice and helpful host (!!!)
- low prices
- clean and cosy, comfortable beds
- kitchen where you can prepare breakfast
- very nice garden

"-":
- none

More than great!

Charoenrat Road is one of the most interesting roads in Chiangmai because not only is it along the Ping River but there are quite a number of genuinely old buildings for visitors who are interested in Thai heritage and culture. This lovely guest house is perhaps the best because of 3 reasons:
1. It is actually 100 year old authentic- not a modern facsimile.
2. It has been very well maintained and that really shows
3. Unlike the others it is well set back off the road in a large garden behind a wall so you have more protection from traffic noise than in the others.

Within a very easy walking distance you have lots of interesting and varied places to eat and drink, some also in heritage buildings, many with river frontages.

A very short stroll down the road is a beautiful temple with a very interesting free museum of objects donated over decades by local traders.

If you are using a car, motorcycle or bicycle to explore the city and its environs this guesthouse has ample parking space. I recommend using a bicycle because most of the city is flat and with a bicycle  you can go anywhere and stop anywhere that you want to look at - if you cycle fairly slowly and look around a lot you should be safe in Chiangmai's unaggressive traffic. One very professional bicycle rental business is Cacti in the north west corner of the moated old city. However, since there is a recently reinstated footbridge over the river (immediately opposite the temple) you can easily walk to a lot of the fascinating older city from this guest house - one of the nearest attractions just over the river is the flower market.
The management of this guest house is very conscientious.
If you are coming from abroad to see Thai culture and heritage or if you are Thai wishing to see some of your history this is a lovely guest house to stay in, very well located  and very good value.
