Where to get a decent accomodation in CM right now?

you really need to add some details like: how long you intend to stay; what type of rental (room, apartment/condo, hotel, house).

 

what do you intend to do here ? what are your needs for transportation ?

so now the air is bad?

Yes it is. Do a search on Google about air quality in northern Thailand and judge for your self. I live about 2 hours drive east of Chiang Mai and our mountains a completely covered. Wait till the rains start which clears the smoke to see the beauty of the north.

you mean small huts with air con and kitchen?

May be a dump and may not have a kitchen. And if you run A/C (If they have one) your electric bill will be another 6K/month.

I did 9K for a month at Dozy last August. But I negotiated it in person. And that was peak-slump.

 

Lanna Moon is another good cheapie. No phone, you have to just show up. 10 baht per shared kitchen use for gas. Worth a google. The area by Lanna Moon has a few other cheapies.

 

Outside of a guest house, not a lot of by month places in CM these days. It's gotten harder to get a lease as short as 6 months. Most places want a year. 

 

Air BnB is your best bet, but you won't like the prices. The people I know who are paying in your range are all on a year lease.

on booking the small room costs from 22000 - 30000, that is ridiculous

What is ridiculous about that? That comes down to just 750-1000 baht per night, that is what 500 baht was 5-6 years ago. Even includes your cleaning, electric bills etc. This without any deposit or long-term contracts. You pay that about anywhere unless going for 3-6-12 months deals.

Plenty of guesthouses for 6000bht/month.

Chicken farms with loud drunk people and showers full of hair you mean. Tell me 3 places around the city center now that offer a private room for 6k a month without having a long-term contract and I buy you a case of chang or leo to choice.

 

Obviously i mean a OK private room, not to sleep next to short time using people and junkies lol.

So true, specially those cheap rooms the AC easily nears equal of the rent. And never is included for those deals at 6K too.
