I just don't get it I've been to Pattaya many times, 17 times from memory, I never been robbed never had any problems with ladyboys never been threatened never had bad experiences with hotels. But when I lived in Ratchaburi I have been threatened with a gun, had my homestay burned down got broken into my factory twice which never made the news. So why are you guys constantly complaining about Pattaya? I do realize the roads are not the best or the sidewalks but not only in Pattaya, and yes Pattaya does have many things for families to enjoy. Just don't go out late at night which I would not do in any city or resort in the world. Stop picking on just one city.
