(friedfrunk @ Dec. 01 2010,16:09) Gonna take up kahuna's suggestions and stay in either Renu House or One Apartment.

Forgot to mention...There are two Renu Buildings...A and B...they are owned by the Same folks but managed by two different companies...So if one is full...the other might have a vacancy...

Stayed on the 3rd floor in block B at Renu House. Love the rooms but the wifi is ridiculously flaky. I get disconnects so regularly that their internet is essentially unusable. This is especially the case during the day. In the middle of the night, I get a more stable wifi connection. And a speed test shows less than 1Mbps download speeds, i.e. 0.8 - 0.9Mbps. Shame cos I really like the rooms. Had no choice but to checkout. Was hard to find good guest houses with available rooms. But I found one in Soi Bua Khao that had a last room available. No wifi but the room internet uses a LAN cable. No problem cos the internet is the fastest I've ever had in Thailand. Almost 10Mbps! Even during peak periods, the connection speed drops to 3Mbps which is excellent. My room is nothing to shout about, but it's functional with everything I need. 5000 baht monthly. It's called Center Apartment.

On the ladyboy front, I went to the giganticest issan concert last night. Thousands in attendance. All the bars were closed cos it was the King's birthday. So there were hundreds of ladyboys making merry. Like a fricken ladyboy convention. Woot.

Safety and anonymity in the crowd. Good show FF

Not really. I went to Stringfellows to talk to May and Nat. Many Stringfellows gurls used to work in Singapore, so I know some of them. At came to me saying she doesn't like Singapore, doesn't like Singaporean men, and we're all cheap charlies. She previously got arrested by the Singapore police and she's banned from coming there for 5 years. That's probably the cause of her Singapore hatred.

Anyway At went ballistic with me. Bizarre non sequitur behavior. She was also slurring and talking incoherently. I walked away to preserve my health. See, I'm not yet anonymous and safe. Still managed to make sexy time with ladyboys though.

Interesting...I've stayed in 4 different rooms at Renu on the 2nd and 3rd floors...My last trip I stayed in the room at the end of the hall farthest from the router and never had a problem...I don't download or upload, but I truly never had a connection problem...

Now I'm lodged at the Emma Hotel...In fact, they put me in the room right next door to the infamous ladyboy herself...Want her room number...

BTW...The WIFI connection here is just as good as Renu...Only problem is all I seem to be able to get are these damn Emma porno vids...

The reception said that the internet problem is isolated to my room, i.e. room 311. Hard to believe because the router is just outside my room. Tried during the day for two days straight but still had spotty wifi. Another thing, I didn't see any baht buses plying that road. I either walked or took a motorbike taxi. Isn't there any other way to commute to and from Renu House?

Are you in Pattaya now? Would be cool to meet up anywhere except Stringfellows. Would also like to check out your room in One Apartment. Strictly platonic of course.
