Get a bigger adjustable will always come in handy.

Decades ago I used to drive past the Mole Works at Newport, South Wales on the old A4 from Bristol to Cardiff.

 

Sadly long gone in the name of progress.

remove hose from wall - remove sink - remove hose/tap - replace tap/hose - replace sink - attach hose to wall.  That's how professional did it last time.

Here's a tip, if the space is difficult to access the nut break the plastic screw holding the tap and drag it through into the sink, far easier to get at.

One spanner fits all nuts in Thailand.

If you can grab the nut from underneath but don't have room to turn the spanner, hold the spanner and turn the tap.
