  1. I hated the Little Duck but YMMV. For me the rooms were way over priced and the service was just plain lazy. I only stayed for 1 day. The Sunbeam Hotel is a pretty nice place in my opinion if you are on one of the top floors. Too many Indian tour groups are on the middle floors and the noise level was too much for me. I'm really surprised that you are having problem contacting them. Try emailing their boss and you should get a reply. Thavorn (Tony) Siriyai GM@sunbeamhotel.net Tony is a stand up guy and has always worked hard to make my stays good. They even gave me a surpris
  2. Try to get the Royal Asia Lodge rooms # 414 / 415 514 / 515 614 / 615 714 / 715 if you can. They were recently redone and are much nicer. The Royal Asia Paradise is next door and those are usually rented out for longer periods of time but you can catch one sometimes depending on vacancies. The owners are Thai but not Budhists so don't be alarmed by the towels. They have always been extremely helpful to me. One piece of advice is some Taxi's will not want to drive to the hotel during the rush hour. They have to go down Sukhumvit and do a U turn and come back and that littl
  3. The passenger doesn't get the miles for courier services.
  4. When I was in their last major fire 11 months ago the did not give rebates or discounts then either.
  5. I went with Jupiter courier once. You can take 1 piece of check in luggage and you have no flexibility with your schedule and you can only stay for 30 days max. You have to fly coach and have no option to upgrade the ticket and you have to head to customs in Japan and Bangkok which usually doesn't give you too much extra time to stretch and relax. Oh .... and there was a 13 hour layover in Japan but they gave you a free sleeping room. It wasn't worth saving $200 to me.
  6. The easiest way I figure out LoS time is take New York (EST) and add 12 hrs.
  7. The bus trip is an awesome scenic drive. Just make sure you get the direct route with AC. I used to buy 2 seats which gave a lot of stretch room. I would recommend trying it at least once.
  8. They pulled the old bait and switch on me last January. They showed me a nice room and said it would be available the next day but I'd have to pay a deposit to hold it. I came back but the room they tried to give me was half the size and was pretty crappy looking and I was not impressed with it. Of course they would not repay the deposit even after waiting and talking with the manager of the place. I didn't feel like playing the games with the tourist police so I let it go but they will NEVER get any more money from me again. The original room they showed me looked nice and it was a
  9. It's a song about Chess that was in a movie about a chess tournament.
  10. Do you know what that song is singing about?
  11. Be very very careful with these tests. I brought my TG to Pattaya Memorial Hospital last year for the full check up. They looked me right in the eye and told me she was STD free but a few months later I found out from an old friend of hers that she had been HIV+ for over a year. It was the worst 7 days in my life waiting for my HIV tests to come back here in the states and thank God I came up negative. Unless you speak and understand Thai I would not risk my life on someone that with a little wink/wink can get false results. B
  12. I've been to your place about 20 times during this past year and I really enjoy the music videos you play on the TV's from the computer when the band is taking a break. I'd like to know where you get your videos and how much hassle is was to format them onto the harddrive as I'd like to put a simmiliar collection together for myself. Any bit of information would help get me on the right track. Brian (Bored in Wisconsin)
  13. I think you'll find the hardest drugs to get are the sleeping pills.
