The small rooms are way too small and dark. I for sure would pay the extra 200 for the medium room who is quite spacious albeit basic.

I can confirm all the above and I would like to add the new 300 Bath joiner fee for every guest exceeding the 'max. 2 persons per room' rule, whether ST or LT! Made us check out prematurely last month. So if you are heavily into three or more-somes, forget it!

Test for Dementia The results are quite accurate but not to be taken seriously :-) Below are four (4) questions and a bonus question. You have to answer them instantly. You can't take your time, answer all of themimmediately. OK? Let's find out just how clever you really are.... Ready? GO!!! (scroll down) First Question: You are participating in a race. You overtake the second person. What position are you in? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Answer: If you answered that you are first, then you are absolutely wrong! If you overtake the second person and you take his place, you are second! Try not to screw up next time. Now answer the second question, but don't take as much time as you took for the first question,OK? Second Question: If you overtake the last person, then you are...? (scroll! down) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Answer: If you answered that you are second to last, then you are wrong again. Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST Person? You're not very good at this, are you? Third Question: Very tricky arithmetic! Note: This must be done in your head only. Do NOT use paper and pencil or a calculator. Try it. Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1000 . Now add30. Add another 1000. Now add 20. Now add another 1000 Now add 10. What is the total? Scroll down for answer..... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Did you get 5000? The correct answer is actually 4100. If you don't believe it, check it with a calculator! Today is definitely not your day, is it? Maybe you'll get the last question right.... ....Maybe. Fourth Question: Mary's father has five daughters: 1. Nana, 2. Nene, 3. Nini, 4. Nono. What is the name of the fifth daughter? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Did you Answer Nunu? NO! Of course it isn't. Her name is Mary. Read the question again! Okay, now the bonus round: A mute person goes into a shop and wants to buy a toothbrush. By imitating the action of brushing his teeth he successfully expresses himself to the shopkeeper and! the purchase is done. Next, a blind man comes into the shop who wants to buy a pair of sunglasses; how does HE indicate what he wants? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~! He just has to open his mouth and ask... It's really very simple.... Like you! PASS THIS ON TO FRUSTRATE THE SMART PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE! HAVE A NICE DAY !!

Breakfast buffet is for two so just bring your tilac du jour. Very good hotel, very good location also. Been there twice and will be back April next year.

Before things are getting mixed up: The Welcome Inn and Welcome Plaza are two different hotels! The Welcome Plaza is on 2nd road (between Mike's shopping mall and RGP but at the other side of the street) and from what I have read, notorious for it's bug pests.

Look here: http://www.welkominnthailand.com/ Not been there myself but from what I've heard it seems to be a cheap kind of place; rooms small and worn out. However a daytime beer bar on the premisis.

In that case you'll have a great time! Have fun!

I have made reservations for January 7 untill January 29 and they charged me 3000 Bath deposit as usual. (3th. visit)

I'm a shrimp kind of guy... Great libido-booster too.

For me the advantage is the unobstructed view if you have a room facing the back swimming pool. So if you have a workout with your TG you don't necessarily have to close the curtains and it is always nice if you wake up that you can enjoy your morning coffee at your balcony without staring at your opposite neighbour's morning wood.. I have read comments from other bm's about the roosters but in all honesty, I have never been bothered by that; I have hardly even noticed. You must be a very light sleeper if it does. We have stayed in room 2306 and 2406. I.m.o. the location can't be beaten. All the action is at walking distance. Lolita's being just around the corner, lot's of beer bars, 7/11, Mike's shopping mall at 300 meters at your left, Walking Street a 10-15 minutes walk, same for soi 7 and 8 and second road is a main bath bus route. And if you need a time-out the A.L. is like an oasis of tranquility. Disadvantage is the non-smoking and the fact that the breakfast buffet is only untill 10 am. Also the balconies from the second floor and up are tiny!

I have booked the Areca Lodge again from January 7 till January 29 2007. High season so you cannot be too early to make your reservations!

Maybe it's an urban legend but I have been told that in Cambodia you can shoot a cow with a rocket launcher...

Two words: Areca Lodge. Guest friendly, 2 swimming pools, free breakfast for 2, great location, very well maintained, etc. Do a search on Areca Lodge and you'll find lots of positive comments.

Tiffany's shooting range carries a vast selection of handguns. I have used the Beretta 9mm but I have seen .38 and .357 Magnum revolvers and shotguns as well. The 9mm cost 50 bath a round. But as a word of warning: Tiffany's shooting range has become a popular (final) destination for desperate farangs.
