BKK Post website is saying the fire began in a ventilation duct on the 8th floor of the shopping mall, not the hotel or convention center.... And that the fire was put out by Central's firefighters after about 30 minutes.....
Thats not a bad response. It looked really bad

Why do not you think about it ? You have no idea what I own and what size and facilities and yet here you are passing judgements or advising on what I should know.
if this is not trolling , I do not know what is ????
Because I know you dont have those facility .. If you did as a 3 to 4 star hotel advertising on booking .com and Agoda and you matched air bnb or even cheaper like you say then you wouldn't be posting here around the clock but to busy managing your 100% occupancy rate..sorry to be harsh and Im not the one trolling

Disturbing news !... pray thatthe number of casualties does not rise. All the best to the fire fighters doing their job.
Looks very scary however.

No intent to speculate, but in 2010 it was in flames with intentional arson perpetrated by social unrests and protests.

Hope not or its going to be fastest double coup in history

I have matched and beat their prices and still nothing. My laundry ie commercial shop I use also say very quite , ie all their clients, hotels in the same boat
Think about it , how does your 15 sqm rooms compare to 35 to 45 sqm for the same price with a kitchen, usually a gym and good pool.. How you going to match that? comon you should know this stuff..

The landlord claims that she hasn't received the rent for five months starting 17 months back. Why didn't she tell me then?
Easy the middle man could have told her you had to go overseas urgent or any other excuse. What does 5 months 17 months back mean?
Its all meaningless if you dont have real receipts

The joys of renting in Thailand !! so you paid your girlfriend to give to a middle man who paid the Landlord? Its no wonder it went missing . Lesson learned , pay landlord direct or via Bank. Your lady friend has scammed you along with the middle man

Many are now in air bnb as it just gets bigger and impossible to control and at 3000 baht referral fee Ive already converted quite a few condo owners.
But who in their right minds would expose themselves to 10 days of ice water hammering from buckets ? It gets kind of old after day 3

Actually this is the only reason why I didn't buy a condo. Maintenance and construction.
You want to know how your building is going to look like in 10 years? Just go around and look at 10 year old condo buildings. Then have another look at 20 year old buildings. The rapid deteriorating is shocking, admittedly less shocking in Pattaya than Bangkok.
I bought 12 years ago lower sukhimvit Bangkok and we just had all 17 floors Painted and a remodel lobby , the pool switched to salt water and new deck chairs and dozen other things. The maintenance is the only reason I haven't sold up .
the problem is you like every other wanna be landord in pattaya are looking at condos the price of a new corolla.
Just buy from a REPUTABLE developer and dig deep but most pattaya renters are earning 30% ???? in some "fixed" term fund with there millions of baht while staying in a little shoe box and think they are living the dream...enjoy!

Same the world over. Its location location location. Any dumbie cant drop a bundle in real estate or the stock market or anything else. Make sure you buy a condo thats a CORNER condo with the bedroom having no neighbor and noise is done. Dont be a cheap charlie and buy in a Thai ghetto surrounded by karaoke bars or next to a vacant block ...not rocket science.
