5000 Baht a month? Where was it?. I know how 5000 Baht apartments along Sukhumvit look like. I couldnt live there.

Been busy hence no reply earlier.
The apt was a fair way from Soi 4 at On Nut - abt 15 mins by skytrain and 5 mins on motocycle taxi from Soi 4. Abt 60-70 baht by meter taxi. I use ST hotels most of the time for liasons, if you want all night experience you friend will usually know a cheap hotel close by wherever you are. I generally don't take friends to my 'HQ' unless I know them real well.
The apts themselves are a bit better than the standard of dynasty inn's rooms - bigger as well....
Everyone has a different approach to their holiday and this way suits me.
If you want the name of the building and the soi let me know.

Thanks for the info Reacher! Yes i am interested in the name of the building and the number of the soi. Maybe i have a look when i am next time in Bangkok. So you stayed there for 2 months? You had to pay any deposits? On Nut is the end of the skytrain but not too bad located. Sounds interesting!

No worries.
The name of the building is 93 Building and it's in soi 93. It's abt 4 - 500 metres down the soi from the intersection with Suk'. You'll know you're getting close when you go over a bridge over a small klong (canal). There's a little shop straight across the road (not 7/11) with the coldest beer. You'll have to pay a deposit of 5000 baht (refunded at checkout) you can stay for as long or short a time as you like, the nightly rate is 550 baht so if you stay anything more that 9 nights it's cheaper to pay for the whole month.
One thing - the people at 93 Building and surrounding businesses don't speak English. I can only speak a little Thai and I got by OK so as long as you have a bit of Thai you'll be fine..... On Nut skytrain station is Suk' soi 77 from memory so that gives you an idea of how far the apts are from there...

To all you guys who posted info here. Keep it coming. Obviously it's great to know about wi-fi, safes in rooms and all the rest. You've taken trouble and I much appreciate it

Someone should write a stticky with at least the basic information of the infamous hotels in BKK and Pattaya.

But I can't be arsed...

Man those standard rooms in majestic are so small, that you you have to go outside to change your mind!
They are modern and clean though.
When i was there the girls at reception always had a good giggle when they saw me with a different lb every night/day. Don't know why, cos its not like i was the first person to ever bring a lb into this hotel.

Bet they havnt met "Dirty Mike" yet!

To be honest i wouldnt stay there again.. It was my first time on the lb scene, and that sort of thing can put a dent in your confidence. Although now i couldnt care less, at that time i was still shy and didnt need comedy from the receptionists.
I much prefer the dynasty inn.. There you feel like the invisible man.. You can bring in a cyclops and the girls at reception wont batter an eyelid.!
