Air bnb of course. There will always be a a tiny risk with air bnb due to life circumstances. The host isn't a hotel with permanent staff 24/7Who gets that money, the customer or airbnb?
An emergency, to many to mention could mean the host isn't available for check in
If you don't like that risk then go ahead and pay a hotel room for a month at 4 times the price and a tiny space -
You think I'm an expert on erectile disfunction drugs ? Just go by the golden rule. Offer half of what they ask for and bump it a few hundred bahtOn that note, what about Apcalis? What type of deals can you get from those street vendors? -
I agree. Nothing much good about thai girls unless it's top shelf go go bar, more expensive than the West
I can agree about anything, but I simply refuse to acknowledge this.
I did live in Montreal and Toronto for a long time where there are a lot of beautiful women. Plenty of good looking Asians, but also many women from every corner of the world. Of course, I do realize that these women are all in their 20's, but they blow Thai women out of the water. Yes, some are fat, but have you seen Thai women recently?
I've yet to see an attractive wife on a farangs arm
They are good to scratch the itch though- 1

Wrong. Air bnb owners are penalized for pulling a reservationI've used Airbnb a few times but have run into a few issues. Firstly, the room owner can cancel a booking with no financial penalty, unlike the guest who, even with free cancellation, has to pay at least the service fees to Airbnb. This has happened to me and it's very annoying trying to find a new place at the last minute. All that happens for the owner is a comment on the review page that he/she cancelled the room.
Last year I booked Airbnbs in Japan. The Japanese Govenment suddenly introduced a law stating that all short term rental acommodation needed a licence. Airbnb removed all their Japanese listings, only reinstating them when a licence number had been issued. Both my places were affected and although Airbnb offered generous terms to guest whose plans had been upset, it was extrememly difficult to find alternatives, especially with most owners that received their licence realising rooms were now at a premium and raising prices accordingly. This could happen in Thailand and elsewhere. Great opportunity for a little corruption for the expediting of licences!
If it happens several times then they are banned for life
Did you really think that air bnb would let them off the hook?
It's a multi billion dollar success story and for good reason.- 1

Same reason people like to live downtown New York or London or George st SydneyBTS connects to the MRT so it's not really a problem? Though to be honest I don't know why anyone would want to live in such expensive and crowded areasBut it's not really a mystery. If you have wealth then you can choose. If you dont then it's a village or pattaya or the worst choice possible.... deep out in the burbs of bangkok

What size sqm?
How many bedrooms?
If you want a modern good size condo say 80 sqm then you will struggle in Asoke
Ekamia should be no problem- 1

At the bust terminal bangkok last week buses were running every 10 minutes and there was still a 40 min wait. Absolutely poring in

No way to police it. Ain't gonna happenI'm not disputing the fact they have better service and are better value than hotels, but we have seen the extents that the ruling "elites" go to in Thailand to hang onto the money, having the government removed is nothing to them, removing street vendors from outside their expensive real estate easy done, if they let Airbnb prosper I for one will be pleasantly surprised.- 1

Monthly rent is legal. I only rent per monthI'm surprised they allow you. Where I'm living in Bkk, the penalty, if caught, is 10,000 baht per day. The condo management takes the owner to court.
Plenty break the law but renting daily is chaotic, not to mention arrivals and departures at all hours and bnb guests are EXTREMELY needy. They know their review will make or break you -

Strictly speaking, hotels should remain unaffected as its against the law to rent condos less than a month.When the hotel industry gets decimated enough change will come, lots of taxes being avoided and immigration rules flaunted.Anyone paying a nightly rate for one month in a hotel needs head examined
Besides you really think all hotels and guest houses are actually registered and paying taxes? Too funny!

I have big success renting my condo on lower Sukhumvit in high season when I travel abroad.
There is no comparison. Big spacious condo vs a hotel room.- 3

Only the USA issues affidavits. I think your due diligence needs fine tuning before making BS statementsYou should catch up with things. The UK embassy ceased the accepting of applications for income letters on the 12th December, the US embassy ceases issuing affidavits on 31 December, the Australian embassy ceases witnessing Statutory Declarations for income on the 7th January and the Danish embassy has already ceased issuing letters of income from the end of November, so you should check your facts before posting.- 1

Back pack?Thanks for the heads up. I'm fed up with thecold top loaders.
Any idea what the temperature is for Warm and Hot?
I guess warm for clothes and Hot for towels and bed linen.
Next problem is how to carry my laundry basket on the Honda Click -
Thanks for the info

For sheets if they are white, bleach should suffice in killing critters .. I think
Except if you want to kill and remove dust mites and dust mite allergens from your bedding, pillows, etc -- in which case, hot water washing and heated dryer drying are essential.

They don't even come close to western women eg downtown Sydney or gold coast Australia or most big cities in Europe
Scratching the itch is what they do well and of course the favor is returned in the bedroom. Most men want to please.. Your not special lol
