Frommer's Review
This large shop has a particularly good collection of locally
made cotton and silk garments (most incorporating panels of
hill-tribe embroidery or appliqué work), plus old
hill-tribe clothing and jewelry, and newly woven bags and
pouches. Several items are sized and fit better than the big,
one-size tops and slacks sold elsewhere. Cool, cotton dresses
adorned with hill-tribe textile bodices cost 700B to 1000B ($28
to $40). Newly made evening jackets of mutmee, Thai silk ikat,
start at 1,200 ($48).

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
