Our first meal in Chiang Mai was at the restaurant in your hotel. The temple next door is made of teak wood, I believe. Great video brought back some good memories. Great location to enjoy the old city. Appreciate your videos Master Chief. Take care
That is a gem if you are into culture immersion. Typically the center places are expensive in other parts of the world Thank you for showing us the convenience!
Hey Kevin, I've been to Thailand many times myself, and it's become my second home. I've thoroughly enjoyed your journey and insight thus far. I'm looking forward to your future vids. Thanks, and stay humble... It's working!! ☺🙏🏽
I could definitely live there for a month. I’ve lived in tents in the middle east. I’ve also lived in warehouses with 79 other sand sailors (was in the expeditionary community while active duty). That would be a major step up from those and my barracks days.
Love it, reminds me of the hotel I stayed in during my time in the Old City. Kevin now you’re in the Old City instead of Nimman are you riding bumble bee more often/visiting Nimman for Maya mall etc, or keeping it local/walkable in the Old City?
The new apartment looks pretty nice. I'm glad the market is only one day a week. You posted that clip to IG and I thought, "Man, I could not deal with that every night!" Pineapple rice is superior to all other rice dishes. Enjoy the old city.
Nice and clean space in a super convenient location! With the kettle one could at least make tea and coffee, and some very basic meals. The restaurant downstairs is convenient. Seems great! How about a Night Market tour? 🍲
Space wise it is totally fine. I would prefer a kitchenette too, a toaster and electric kettle, and a fridge so at least I can have breakfast and coffee at "home" before leaving to discover. Oh, it seems like you have a small fridge and kettle. Yeah, that's minimum. And a toaster.
Don't think I'll stay for a month ... but great tour to give us a chance to see what accommodations are like. Works for me. Again, nice job ... so informative. I subscribed and can't wait for more Chiang Mai travel guides.
I could live in a small space but I would like to have a little kitchen because sometimes I pretend I can cook. But I LOVE the location. That will be on my bucket list. Thank you.
Considering the location the room is really affordable 👍. I can stay there for a month, but just to sleep and bath. And I'll be using the co working space a lot. Is it free? Thanks for sharing 😎
Hard to beat this place Kevin! My power bill here in the USA can be $400 per month (Summers). It’s nice to find a great deal in a super clean place with daily maid service and a killer location where you can walk to the attractions. Enjoy !
I could totally live like this. For me, it wouldn't be about the room I'm renting but about where I'm renting it. I'll be spending most of my time outside and just using the room for sleep or work.
That apartment is a ridiculously clean✨ condo apartment hotel- I love it!!!💕🤗And to be right next to the markets, Mom and Pop Coffee shops,☕🍽️🍜🍛 and Temples is so amazing!!Love the bum gum🤭 and the shower, also! Bye for now!🌺
The temples are beautiful I love their temples especially all the sculptures and everything that's in it and surrounding it that's beautiful 🙏🙏🙏 if I could afford it I would love to go there and stay especially near the temple
You must be liking Chiang Mai you been there awhile now, I’ve just visited and had a great time, have been before about 10 years ago and hardly recognised it. So many improvements and stay in a couple of amazing hotels! Are you going to Pai, if you haven’t been it’s a must visit, the place isn’t just a cheap hippie/backpacker place, lots to see and do around the area and that amazing winding road trip will be a challenge if you going on a motorbike! Yeah you got a good deal on the hotel, ok for one person, but if it was me I would like to be able to cook my own meals occasionally!
Nice find. I actually checked that place out when i was hunting for a monthly rental. Ended up settling on a 6000baht all bills included, mountain view right next to Nong buak haad park which is great for the morning run 🏃♂️
Hi kevin seems like you got a pretty good deal with that apartment kinda small for me but you have always said in your past videos you basically live out of your back pack😁 which is cool. Do you watch much television? Does that tv have cable? Great video my friend!
May I make a request? I would like to see some of the countryside, please take a motorbike trip outside the city. I enjoy all of your videos and hope to see many, many more. Thanks.
@@30AndAWakeUp The drive up to Chiang Mai video? I saw that and enjoyed it. thanks. (Not including the lizard wreck, of course.) Will you be driving to your next location?
pretty nice location, a month yes. but longer I need a little more of a place. I have really been thinking on going there. If I need not have to leave every 90 days. to get another visa. but I guess you can go to another close country for 90 days or less and come back. I like the idea that you can be a nomad and go here and there and everything is provided in most rentals.
You're a better man than me! I would have preferred the $170 + electric as I only run AC at night when needed and tend to be well under 1k bht/$30 for the month.
Your hotel is one block from our hotel and we are looking to change hotels. We were eating breakfast this morning just south of your hotel at Cafe De Thaan Aoan and we saw you walk by with your camera in hand.
Oh nice! You should have said hi...wouldn't have bothered me. Im not sure this would be the greatest hotel for a couple...it's more appropriate for a backpacker style traveler.
Well it's certainly bigger than a van! I suppose if there was enough to do during the day and the place is only to sleep. I think if I were stuck inside for a few days I'd go a little nuts. What kinds of things do you do during the day to keep from getting bored?
All kinds of stuff to do in chiang mai. From temples, to hikes, to 100s of mom an pop coffee shops and restaurants....whatever youre into you can find.
Another great video!! I'm curious, when they come to clean the room and bathroom do you stay around to make sure nothing is stolen? I wouldn't feel comfortable at all leaving the place while a stranger is inside cleaning.
Do you think this hotel would be a good choice for a 2 week solo trip? Also did you get vaccinated for hepatitis a and typhoid before your trip to Thailand?
Food for to thought. $170. + Utilities or $300. All included. Would depend on electric rate. Water, petty. Could be $50. to $75 savings. I'm out 12 hrs. a day. The hottest part of the day too. Even going w $300. Scenario an excellent deal. Especially when you can try lower rent option for a month. If it's even close, the $300. is the way to go.
Honestly, visa runs havent existed for 2 years now. Will they come back, maybe? But not sure. I'd be completely guessing if it can still be done since it's been so long since it's been even possible. :( sorry! :(
@@30AndAWakeUp Thank you for the reply. I'm contemplating a trip to Thailand that started with just going to Bankok/Pattaya but Chiang Mai impressed me with all the temples and nature.

Thank you

No gym but there are a few close by.

Motorbike at night are the worst.

Yeah there are a few. Check out the Palm buildings. There are a few of them and they all have pools.
Is the internet decent? I don't expect it to be great, but at least usable for watching videos and stuff?
Yeah, Chiang Mai has good internet almost everywhere. 50 up, 50 down
The room is not beautiful… But it is functional and fine for anyone’s needs. The only issue I would have would be no elevator.
