Thanks for all the responses. Its rare to find 100% acceptance of a guesthouse but thats the case here.

Not all are always happy, but we have put a huge amount of Baht into the place

 

We appreciate the business...

Hi there Greg. Can I suggest the following. I have to admit this is not the first time that I have made the suggestion but no one so far has taken it up. I would love to see a Soi LK guest house sort out a deal/ contract/ understanding whatever with a hotel in the area for use of the pool. Perhaps a charge back basis.

 

As I see it I believe that the Areca charges 200 baht. When I add this to a room amount and take into account that the rate at Areca included breakfast then I may as well have stayed in hotel in the first place.

 

The point is that I want access to a pool in the area when I want to use a pool. I want a rate that is reasonable and preferably a chargeback.

 

Any thoughts?

A 5 minute walk and you can have access to a fantastic swimming pool on top of Mikes only 80 baht well worth a visit.

Apparently the Drunken Duck is doing well. Due to the good reports, I decided to give it a try. I wanted two rooms for three nights because they have a minimum three night rule. I sent them an email and they did have two rooms available. I understood the rooms were 850 baht and I expected a Pattaya Talk discount. No discount was offered and no explanation for a 1,000 baht rate rather than 850 baht. I had to say thanks but no thanks.

Its still high season mate , the rooms would be good value at 1000 a night in low season IMHO

[timbon 6]

.....and I expected a Pattaya Talk discount.

 

Why would you expect that?

The website says that some rooms are 850 and go up to 1000 w/ balcony. Maybe that's all they had available?

I never heard of them offering a PattayaTalk discount.

 

If anything, TTT probably charges more for members here

May I ask why you expect a discount...?

 

We have 12 rooms, not hundreds and they fill up fast

 

At times I can't even get my room (#5), because of bookings

You have a financial stake in this business? Interesting? I'll have to stop by and take a look for myself.

[Gary 4,119]

Maybe I got mixed up with the Pattaya Talk discount. I was sure that one of the guest houses was offering a member discount. I had thought it was the Drunken Duck. It wouldn't be the first time I was mistaken.

It's not the type of place that you would like, Denny

It's obvious that you don't keep up with things, do you...?

 

It has 3 flights of stairs, which you may find hard to get up/down

 

No Indian talior shop

 

Flat screen 32 in TV's inch all rooms but one (#5 has a big 42 inch old monster in it)

 

2 pool tables ( 1 is free, the other is 20 Baht)

 

Big Screen TV in lobby for all sports

 

Good location on Soi LK Metro, across from Devils Den

 

WiFi and it is a very good signal

 

New beds in every room

 

Cleaned every day, the girls do a very good job at keeping it spotless

 

A website, which you should have already seen, if you would keep up with current events

 

I don't mind someone saying they had a good or bad time there , TTT does try his best to accomodate everyone

But if you are going to talk about it, as you have done with the SkyTop, I prefer you stay elsewhere

I don't want someone destroying what TTT, Bob and myself have worked hard at getting going

I asked you a simple question. Do you have a financial interest in this business?

Don't be a dunce, BigD. Read what he said in his last post.

 

And quit thread fucking with your little spats.

Why answer a direct question from you, as I've asked many to you and so have others...

Villa recommends it as great value for money, not been there myself yet but hope to this year.

I just asked the guy a simple and direct question on his financial interest in the guest house. Same question you've asked me or was the question when you accused me of getting a free room?

[BigDUSA 71]

I hope the owners of the Drunken Duck are successful with their new guest house. If they run a quality operation with the emphasis on excellent customer service. No doubt they will do very well. Good luck.

He should have answered MYOFB long ago! Why do have to constantly butt in to a good thread with your stupidity!
