Thanks for the update, Sanya is off the list. I have decided to stay at RG even without a monthly rate. Staying somewhere I know I will like is worth a few extra baht. Just 5 more weeks... Bob

I have checked wit Residence garden regarding monthly rate, the reply was: "We do offer special monthly rates between April and October. However from 1st November Special daily rate of 1,399 Baht applies." Thanks for the other suggestions, I will have a look. If anyone else knows somewhere good, please let me know. Bob

Thanks, I didn't know that. Will definately check it out. Bob

I am staying in Pattaya for about one month from the middle of November. I have previously stayed at the Residence Garden and I am considering it this time as well, but for one month even the cheap FLB rate does add up. I have been looking through posts here trying to find a good serviced apartment but so far I have not found anything that I am happy with. Must-have features: Decent standard room, not just a bed and a TV. Good bathroom. Relatively easy to get to and from the fun-spots. Guest friendly. Daily maid service and fresh towels. Not a noisy neighborhood. In-room safe. Price up to 25000 baht for a month. I would also like to have in-room internet access. Does anyone know a place that satisifies my needs ? Bob

Very, very funny Bob

I usaually check prices through them as well, and have used them without problems 3-4 times. Bob

Regarding partying in Bangkok. I think you are thinking about Sukhumvit soi 4, containing the famous Nana Entertainment Plaza. It is a good place to start, a big collection of bars, both gogo and beerbar style. Another good place is soi Cowboy, on Sukhumvit soi 21. Cowboy is IMHO a slightly more laidback place. I really like a little of the GFE, and have found that it is harder to find in Bangkok than Pattaya. Your milage may vary of course. I like your words on treating the ladies well, I believe in treating everyone with respect, especially those who warm my bed. Bob

Lucky bastard. Have fun Bob

All the taxis I have been in had working aircon. So, don't worry about that. Bob

Stayed at RG with a friend who has a Mac. He had no other problems with the internet connection than I had with a pc. Bob
