555 'renowned' if you don't sleep past midnight. What tourist wants to lay in bed and hear that THUMP THUMP THUMP till 4AM ? Oh, don't forget the local Thai clubs that go till sun up.
There were 3 Brits too. Bust a deal face the wheel. How would an average Thai feel about 2000 baht instead of 4000? What would a worker promised 4000 and going to the villa and then told to go away without payment do ? LOTS of Face lost.
