That is the price of a very basic room in a Thai apartment complex. Forget about it. Even if someone will rent you out a place like that, you would not want to live there. Realistic cheapest places will be basic studios a bit out of town for 5000-6000 baht, or some very basic guesthouse type places around Soi Buakhao for 5000-6000 baht for somewhere a bit more central. If you can't even afford that then it is probably time to book a plane ticket home.

I've lived in one before at 2500 per month, I know what to expect. Dirt and crud on the walls, dirty shower, bathroom barely works, etc, I mean it's livable for me, I haven't had a/c for over a year now. At one point my girlfriend was renting a room down a soi off Walking Street for 3000 baht, that was especially greezy though the building has since been redeveloped.

Have you tried searching Google for "cheap hotels Pattaya"?

Of course. There's cheap and then there's cheap though. The sort of thing I'm looking for isn't on booking.com

If you look back 3 or 4 pages you will see a thread "Where is the cheapest hotel in Pattaya?" started by JohnJay on 19th June. It runs for 4 pages; half of which is a mix of sarcasm and derision; but it has up to date info. Hope it helps.

I would paste you a link if I had an inkling of how to do it on a phone.

I saw this but it wasn't very helpful. I did search the forum for information . Was hoping someone could point me to rooms available or specific buildings

Hi.

I need to find a dirt cheap room in Pattaya (for 2,000-3,000 baht per month). Before anyone suggests, I've tried asking bar girls and they just call me a cheap Charlie and don't help. I can't find this sort of place online. Does anyone know, where should I look? Anyone know of cheap rooms available?

Also, what are the cheapest hotels in Pattaya? I can only find dirt cheap places in dormitory style. 

I just can't find this type of information on Google. If anyone could help I would really, really appreciate it.

The problem is every once in a while they get a confused little old lady and she gives them all.  These are one of very few people in the world that I would truly like to see get hurt badly.

It's just a numbers game. They only need to get lucky one time and it pays for their time making all the unsuccessful calls.
