    300 baht for breakfast is little expensive, great infinity pool view and nice room though. I stayed at the the Haritage Hotel last month in Patong (had 2 pools and free breakfast) for around $80 USD per night. The cheapest place I booked in Patong was last October and for month I paid $203, everything included. Great review.

    Never had the bottle to use a bum gun. The thought of the previous tenant wafting that thing near his rusty sheriff badge makes me shiver.

    Love seating out the front of Yorkshire hotel and having a beer at that bar they got and watching all the people walk past all the girls heading into Bangla road for work...

      Thanks Barry. I have no income at the moment and as my job is a sports events announcer the chances of getting back to work any time soon is none. So unfortunately I can't see me getting back to Thailand at all in 2020 and quite possibly not in 2021 either 😞😞

      @jimmylim4016 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Besty, I was there in last August, was told by a staff usually they charge a joiner fee for stays between December to February. And I remembered I have seen on Tripadvisor and Bangkok112's video, mentioning about the fee as well. Would be good to check with the hotel via email before confirming any booking in December. ☺

      Kev and I were friends. Not close friends, but friends nonetheless. On and off camera. There are certain things that I don't want to put on camera, and the loss of a friend is one of them. Not that I have any issues with vloggers that have shared tributes, I don't. It's just everybody deals with loss in their own way. Rest well Kev.
