Pattaya Hotels

[QUOTE=Wildhawk;1101598]...public transit is frequent and plentiful at 15 baht per person each way.[/QUOTE]Nope. The baht bus fare is still 10 baht in Pattaya.

You were cheated shamelessly out of 5 baht!

[QUOTE=Fon Tok;1101762]Just paid 10 baht about 15 minutes ago.[/QUOTE]Well, that was far from my only experience of overpaying in Patts!

[QUOTE=Wildhawk;1102062]Well, that was far from my only experience of overpaying in Patts![/QUOTE]Then you probably have that famous sign on your forehead.

[QUOTE=Run Mann; 1098141]Soi 10 near 2d road, they're currently running a pay for 6 nights and get one free (1500 to 1800B per night) promo. You'll get better rates on Agoda if you you're planning on stay for less than a week. If you end up staying there, check out the bar beer complex at the intersection of Soi 10 and 2d road, they put on a pretty good show.

All you need to bring is the linens. Down the side soi toward the Korean "garden something" restaurant, left side going from 3rd heading toward 2nd (be advised that it won't GET to 2nd though, without KNOWING where you are going

I only posted info about this hotel to help a member who was asking about it.

Can you recommend a GF hotel without luxury – just correct, clean, save and with the walking distance to the action. The important thing is that I like to have a safety box in the room for obvious reason.

[QUOTE=Saint Mint;1105119]What is your budget?[/QUOTE]I agree, the amount you want to spend will play a big part.

While you decide that try look at this [url]http://dancewatchers.com/VT_6_condo_building_information_Pattaya.html[/url]

If you are on a tighter budget then check out AA hotel on soi 13

[QUOTE=Saint Mint;1105119]What is your budget?[/QUOTE]Not more than 1300 per night. I can be rather basic, I don't need swimming pool etc. But I'm looking for room where I can easily bring the girls and have safely a good time.

Does somebody can explain me please what is the difference between 'normal' GF hotel and 'adult hotels'.

Thanks

[quote=otari;1105572]not more than 1300 per night. i can be rather basic, i don't need swimming pool etc. but i'm looking for room where i can easily bring the girls and have safely a good time.[/quote]there are lots of good guesthouses on soi lk metro (e. g., billabong, pasdena lodge, irish rovers, etc.), and the surrounding area that are well within your budget. and, best of all, there are lots of mongering opportunities, (e. g., go-go bars, beer bars, devil's den, [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord901][CodeWord901][/url]'s, etc.), right downstairs.

When I return to Pattaya I would like to stay right off Walking Street. Can anyone recommend any hotels in the Walking Street area?

Thanks, Beaverhunter

Surely there is no side service but who they are dressed in the pictures might make you think so.

When accesing the site, do spend a while on Tik's charity and a story in it. Not wasted time to read through it.

' Secrets Pattaya. Scabies report taken down? Reality Bites?

Jan 01, 2011, 5:07 AM.

I made a review about Pattaya Secrets Hotel on 11/20/2010 and it was first published and then taken down immediately after a couple of days.

Over 40 days on, since the review and three attempts to report on secrets forum that got me banned from that pathetic forum, we are still suffering with the effects of scabies which we contracted from Secrets.

If anyone else has contracted scabies after staying in this rundown and unhygienic place then please make your voice heard and let the world know.

Below is my original report and I am going to try to post it again today as I have had the worst new year of my life because of this incident:

I have been a customer of Secrets for years. Moreover, I even met my girlfriend in their nightclub so I became a patron of their guesthouse.

This time, just 4 days through our 9 days of stay, both me and my girlfriend had suddenly developed a terrible rash. My girlfriend had it on her legs and hands although I was just fortunate to have it on my legs. One of the staff even giggled upon looking at us in that condition and they closed the case by handing us some talcum powder. Luckily, I stopped my girlfriend from using the talcum powder, cut short our stay and there was no refund for remaining 5 days either.

When the itchiness and the rash didn't vanish for two more days and just got worse, we had no choice but to visit the hospital and were diagnosed with Scabies.

Secrets is not what it used to be, yes, you might have heard this a few times by now but maybe the owner needs to concentrate more on cleanliness as maid services in this place are provided every 2 to 3 days whereas other hotels provide maid services daily!

Apart from being short changed from the Secrets Bar at least twice during our last stay, this time, they just pushed the limits by infecting us with scabies due to their carelessness and unhygienic surroundings. We stayed in the Superior Room priced at 995 Baht, not their cheapest range of Rooms. Way too over priced for such low class service and poor hygiene.

Scabies is hard to get rid off even after a month.

You have lost my business, Secrets!

That was my review.
