LOSO

Yeah that's not looking too clever! I doubt that lasts long at all!

Looks much better now. How long it will stay that way is anyone's guess! Not that the sea itself is any better! but for those that like to sit on the beach its an improvement.

Thanks Guys for all your help will be checking out all these hotels for sure

Can anyone suggest some good Guest friendly Chiang Mai hotels? I have looked in the review area and not much there, so any help would be appreciated

Hi Redwood Thanks for your help and the info. I understand its a bit of a way out, but not too bothered by that as I think for the price it seems to compensate for that. I have been offered a 36 sq m unit, newly refurbished to a high standard (will judge that when i view it ;-) ) and for a cheap rent too. Also have an option to buy if i want...but that i will see as not committed to anything yet. I have a hotel booked for a few days when i get there (November) so it will give me a few days to look at the condo and area before i take it. For the money i am not expecting it to be as good as

anyone else heard this condo block is so bad? I have been offered a good long term deal on this and the location is ok for me, but want to get some more info on if this place is that bad? thanks for your help guys

Thanks for the info laffnliv, can you tell me if its guest friendly?

Has anyone ever stayed at Nirun Grande Ville Condo? they are on Soi Arunothai off Pattaya klang (somewhere between 3rd road and sukhumvit rd) Any information on the condos would be greatly appreciated LOSO

Can anyone update me on the early closing times for stores etc that i understand have or will be forced on the likes of Big C etc by the government in Thailand? It seems to be something to do with cutting down on fuel usage from what i can make out? what times are stores now being forced to close and is this going to spread to other things.....ie bars etc????

Thanks for your help guys, will see if I can arrange a connection that way. Not a big deal as I could use the net cafe, just be nice to do it from the room if possible.

Hi can anyone tell me if Yen sabai condo have a telephone connection in room? Would like to use the internet from the room if its possible. Never stayed there before so Any help greatly appreciated. Loso

Excellent for the money! Stayed there recently and was very pleased. Rooms are basic but everything you need..including mirrored ceiling! Staff are cool and no problems. Nice side entrance to go to or from to avoid the gogo, and no noise as such from the gogo that I noticed :)

Go for it Simon! If you dont follow that dream you'll only regret it later. Good or bad the experience is priceless. Yes I think most of us are addicted...no other word really describes it better. Its more than the bars and girls, in a lot of us it runs much deeper. Once you get over the first few trips you realise Thailand is a way of life. Like many I am planning on living in LOS as soon as possible. The falang life here just does nothing for me anymore, every waking moment is focused on getting back to LOS. :)
