I stayed in RM815 from July 30 - Aug.3 I added my review to the Hotel reviews section. Getting there can be tough for bathbus/taxi, so, print out the directions from www.pattayarentaroom.com/rent-index.htm. I walked into Pattaya rent a room office and got 550baht rate for Rm 815. I asked to see it before I pay and Rudi, the Mgr, agreed. Rudi, is friendly and showed how the door locks/unlocks, power button must be pushed for AC to work. Room has a bath tub and curtain. I don't like the shower with curtain only, water gets everywhere. How electronic safe works. Two light dimmer

Thx all for the wisdom! ;D FWIW, I've only used Cathay Pac to BKK, but, they seem Bankrupt due to SARS, so, I may be a lil' spoiled. I've been chking all the online ticket brokers, but, prices are still high relatively for June '03 fares. I guess I need to wait a few more weeks. I wanna try Thai Air; heard only good reviews, but, seems a lil' high $. I've flown and liked NW to Manila and Tokyo, but, not in last 5 yrs nor to BKK. I've heard bad svc, however, from all euros. I have nothing against'm, but, euros seem to be more sensitive about service. Sanuk and CHOK DEE!

Hi pacificsea, Glad to read someone's flyin from LAX to BKK/LOS! Can you let me know how Korean Air is/was? ??? I hope to be in Pattaya this June. Where/how did you get this fare? Also, does your work know where you're goin? Will you encounter any SARS backlash for goin to Asia? I've heard some returning from Asia are avoided at work, receiving rude comments, etc. Everyone's paranoid. Chok Dee! real80
