(patrick @ Aug. 28 2007,00:58) the teerak will love the standard room anyway
Plenty of real shitholes charging more than 790.
Nice new rooms, swimming pool on roof.
now VERY easy walk to 2nd road and Soi 13/1. Not far but more importantly walk is on driveway and the mall, you don't have to watch out for traffic.
Since many of us start out our night at 131 the PBR is really a great location.
Restaurant a bit overpriced at hotel but cheap enough if you want room service or snack by pool.
Good cheap food if you want to pig out is 110 baht breakfast buffet at Lek hotel. an easy walk thru the mall.
Or 24 hour cheap food at Kiss, go through the mall, make a right and walk a couple of minutes.
High season price of 1300 no longeer the great bargain, but fair enough.
Some good intangibles are the friendly staff and lots of ladyboy-lovers at hotel. Last night in lobby were 3 guys from forum plus two other ladyboy-lovers who don't post here much.
That's makes 5 lb lovers and 0 gg lovers. Where else do you see that?
High season price of 1300 no longer the great bargain, but fair enough.
In my wanderings found a great new hotel across from Areca, forget the name that has an introductory special of 1250 baht. Not really more comfortable than Pattaya Bay Resort but more of a wow factor. If it's still 1250 when the PBR goes up to 1300 maybe the place to stay at that price point. But think it's a bit overpriced at regular rate of 2500.
The name, i forget but will post in a few days.
