Pattaya Reports

[QUOTE=Dinghy;1865192]First off, go down to the 1st floor in the airport and right outside the food court is where the Jomtien bus leaves from hourly. Bell goes to the North road bus station. YOU WILL BE BETTER OFF GOING TO JOMTIEN because the connection back to Pattaya is better. A taxi is about 200 be.

Plan on getting WET unless you are in an ENCLOSED TAXI. Water water everywhere shot at you poured on you BUY A NECK WALLET (large ziploc bag) for 50 be or so or risk getting your phone soaked. Swim trunks mitigate the wet clothes issue.[/QUOTE]To FLHawk,

Or simply stay in Bangkok the first night and catch a bus from Ekkamai to Pattaya the next day when Songkran is all over.

[QUOTE=FLHawk;1864594]I will be making my 3rd visit to Pattaya next week. Thinking that Songkram was from April 13-15, I figured I would totally miss it, but now I see that in Pattaya it runs until at least the 19th (next Tuesday). I will arrive BKK at about 11:30 AM next Tuesday, then will take the Bell bus to Pattaya, probably arriving at around 3:30 PM. Bell has indicated that they will not offer hotel transportation on that day, so I will need to get a taxi I presume, as I will have a large bag. Anyone know what the approximate taxi fare should be to Soi 13? I understand Beach Road will be closed.
I presume there will be relatively little traffic heading in to Pattaya on the 19th, as Bell was showing around 30 open seats. [/QUOTE]Little traffic in Pattaya for 19th April? 18 and 19 are usually the 2 days more crowded for Songkran in Pattaya. My advice is to avoid the transfer on 19th and go to Pattaya the day after. I tried Songkran once, and I'll never go again in Thailand during Songkran.

[QUOTE=BillInLosAnges;1864418]Warning: Do not visit Pattaya if you black. At most a mamasan hook you up with the biggest, "worker" working at that beer bar, ago go or etc. Warning if you are black stay out of Pattaya.[/QUOTE]This is ridiculous, I'm black and I have an incredible time in Pattaya. There's 2 hip hop clubs with pretty much all black guys and Thai chick's that love hip hop and black dudes. If the Mamasan is trying to give you her biggest broad it's only cause most blacks dudes go looking for the thickest chick and they want to accommodate you, they are not being discriminatory they just think that's what you want, you can easily choose another. Anyway I'll be in Pattaya tomorrow getting wet hope you broaden your scope Bruh. Try 808 and then go to Flexx after that they love brothas there.

I'd like to posts my share of experience since a huge talk is going on the price tag.

I personally feel what Mr. E says is the truth which everyone has to accept. Five different people can buy the same product for five different prices and this is a fact not only in mongering world but everywhere else. It clearly depend on one's negotiation skills. And I feel this more true for FLs seating at FL bars like iBar / Insomnia / Red Car and of-course gogo girls. But this can be less promising when it comes to Beach Road girls, they all quote the price what they deserve and one can't negotiate on a low price like that.

For example let's take my experience. I saw this petite babe in iBar and our eyes matched. After all initial formalities "How much" question came and she asked me to quote, however I repeated the same question to her and she quotes 3 k. I knew she was quoting more, but considering her petite body, looks and my attraction towards her I quote 2.5 k, we settled for 2.7 k. Paid her 3 k the next morning which included a 0.3 k tip, total 3 k she got.

Now later I connected with couple of friends who already have used her service before and after me and to my surprise they all have paid 2 k for her. For them, they quote 1 k /1.5 k and she quote 2 k which was final. You can say that I was inexperienced to pay an extra 1 k but for me it was okay since in my experience she was deserving 3 k. I'm sure this exactly is what Mr. E trying to say.

As a monger tourist one can't deny what Breadman says. You can't accept this easily but it's true that everybody wants to bring a girl as quick as possible which results in spending more time with her, may be more fucks. So for me if I see a stunner quoting me 3 k, I'm already attracted to her and she is ready to leave right away with me then may be I'll pay her that amount even if knowing the fact that others pay her 2 k. It's just that I think what I'm paying is relevant to me and if the next morning I'm happy then I believe it's VFM for me whereas it might not be VFM for someone who pays 2 k. "Time is money" is damn true everywhere.

There are multiple reports where an experienced monger makes a deal at a lower price with a gogo stunner and waits for 1-2 hrs for her to make money from LDs which she earns from other punters but not go with them mentioning anonymous reasons. Don't you think here "Time is money" for this punter, he is ready to spend less time with the lady by paying a lesser amount. If I would have a situation like this I simple would have paid the amount quoted with a slight negotiation and have taken the lady right away.

The facts mentioned by Mr. E and Breadman are like to parallel lines going in one direction and the whole world is discussing how these two line are going to intersect each other. Different persons, different perceptions however everybody is right in their perception which is true as a matter of fact.

Unfortunately, I have an opportunity to stop off again (3rd time this year) after a visit to Helsinki (leaving tomorrow). That'll put me in Pattaya Sunday morning around 9-10 AM on the 17th. I'm guessing two difficult and one miserable day dealing with all the water at least until dark. But then I'll have a week to enjoy Pattaya correctly. Avoid Songkran if at all possible; if you want to experience it, plan to arrive on the last day.

[QUOTE=Tomasb;1864744]Besides appearing a bit angry, what's your point?[/QUOTE]Yes our resident Mr. Egoternational.

I just walk up to a woman I see in Pattaya, any woman, and tap her on the shoulder and simply say 'Let's go' and 9 times out 10 they will go. Straightaway without hesitation. No need for any eye contact before hand.

The only exceptions are if they are on a friends night out in which case we will exchange numbers and arrange to meet up the next night.

As for price? That is even simpler. I just toss her a solitary brown note in the morning. No negotiations or discussions beforehand. Not needed or even necessary and no exceptions.

These are the times of course when I do happen to decide to pay.

[QUOTE=Dilwala;1864982]Hey guys,

Any suggestion of jacuzzi rooms in any guest friendly hotel on beach road.

Thanks.[/QUOTE]1) There is a Pattaya Hotels thread on this message board. Better place to ask this question.

2) Penthouse Hotel soi 13/4.

[/QUOTE]Agree 100% - I'm in Kuala Lumpur now.... just to skip Songkran.... - it's too much for an old man.... 555.

But his insight and info in regards to the P4P scene are spot on. I live here in Pattaya full time and one of the things I have realized is that you cannot let the ladies dictate and control the situation. They will actually respect you more if you have a set of balls and you lay out your conditions to the transaction.

A little suspicious.

Plenty of Black guys in Patts doing good work with the ladies and welcome by the larger population. Mr E's reports alone belie thsi guy's claims.

Maybe he just had some bad luck? Who knows?

Re: arriving on last day of Songkran.

Thanks for the advice and info on my scheduled arrival in Pattaya next Tuesday. I would not actually mind experienceing a few hours, well, a few minutes, of Singkran, so I think I will head on down after arriving at BKK Tuesday rather than spend the night in Bangkok, but rather than take the Bell bus and risk getting stuck at the bus station I think it may be better to take a taxi down that will deliver me to at least within a few blocks of my Soi 13 and 2nd Road hotel. I can stand to get soaked pulling / lugging my suit case for a block or two I suppose.

But are the taxi drivers willing to go down there for the 1050 - 1200 TB fee if they think they will get stuck in traffic? Or should getting a taxi from the bus terminal not be a problem? Again, I would be arriving around noon at. BKK and if I take the bus, I would have to take the 2 pm departure (a good reason to take a taxi).

Someone mentioned going to Jomtiem first, or take a train, but I am not sure how they would work. I don't speak the language so I think I should keep things simple.

I actually would prefer a big bus as they are safer. On my first Bell ride we were in an accident. We rear ended s smaller car (not Bell's fault) and the car was crushed. I think the driver was killed. There was like little more than a scratch to the bus.

Anyway, ready to get to Pattaya and start some major report writing! Appreciate all the advice.

Taxi can deliver you straight to your hotel without having to haul your luggage in the hot and humid weather.

Next time try to make clear if you're being sarcastic or perhaps express your criticism in clear terms. It helps.
