Pattaya Reports

[QUOTE=Sharka;2541231]Yes, high / low season are usually the outcome of the travel industry. Whether it was the hotel or airlines. Based on the law of supply and demand. Charging higher prices when supply is low. The bars and girls have also learn from that and just makes sense to follow the trend.

Like they say. It's not personal, its just business.

Just out of curiosity, does anybody know if they do short term (weekly / monthly) rentals for rooms above the bars on Soi 6?

[QUOTE=SinfullyKorean;2541666]Just out of curiosity, does anybody know if they do short term (weekly / monthly) rentals for rooms above the bars on Soi 6?[/QUOTE]I think that one bar was toying with the idea but the bars usually rent out the rooms to the girls that work there. If you really want to stay on Soi 6 then the best (maybe only) choice is to stay at the Queen Victoria.

[QUOTE=Explorer8939;2541684]I have stayed in a room above a bar on Soi 6.[/QUOTE]Do you remember what rate you paid (daily / weekly)?

[QUOTE=Nixonbd;2541829]If you value your sleep, you may want to re-think that one, LOL.[/QUOTE]For sure, I'm well aware of how noisy it is throughout the night with the traffic, people, construction, etc. Depending on how expensive it is, I might just try it for a week. There's the convenience of being right next to all the action, food, beer, and the beach. But inconvenience of bad sleep.

[QUOTE=Nixonbd;2541829]If you value your sleep, you may want to re-think that one, LOL.[/QUOTE]Not to mention ones sanity. 😁.

Though I expect the OP isn't selecting Soi 6 for the downe pillows and comfortable bedding. Sleep may be low on the list of priorities for nocturnal activities.

[QUOTE=Explorer8939;2541176]I got a windfall, a mystery deposit in my bank account, so I spent like a drunken sailor, about 10,000 baht for the 3 ladies' drinks.

This was a gentlemens club on Soi Chaiyapoon.[/QUOTE]Chances are you will be asked for return of mystery deposit.

The girls pay more attention to that then real customers. I live in BKK but my Pattaya expat buddies have told me some girls won't ST and some have denied drinks now. Soi 6 is now Soi online.

[QUOTE=SinfullyKorean;2541842]Do you remember what rate you paid (daily / weekly)?[/QUOTE]I overnighted a couple of times in the ole Sexy in The City NW bar. It was 500 bht / night, IIRC. As to noise level, the soi 6 bars closed at 2 a.

But it makes sense.

Regular times most girls make No money.

Stars do OK.

With Streaming they all share. Bottom girl make as much as top girl.

More Socialist like. Fair and equality Galore. Hahaha.

[QUOTE=DannyDuck;2541924]Chances are you will be asked for return of mystery deposit.[/QUOTE]You are right about that.

Last night, I went to Soi Boomerang. It's a short street with a lot of bars. There used to be a ladyboy bar on the far end, but now it's a GG bar. No live streaming on this street yet.

As far as ladies on Soi 6 turning down drinks or ST, they may merely be a result of a regular customer coming, and they don't want to be seen with another customer when he shows up.
