they dont care i think management is addicted to weed as well......i can tolerate it rest of the day.  but not when i do my yoga and meditate

There must be more than one guest house in your area, with better management and neighbours...

why suffer?

[Crazy Noobie]

Move to a better place. As you will not be able to stop the person from smoking weed, it is that simple. 

[Grumpy one]

Do you get the munchies when your neighbour takes a toke?

i moved to another guest house this one is worse. they are all smoking weed in the hallways.  and blasting marley music and wearing tie die

Anyone who is still taking this post seriously after reading this from the OP....well you must be smoking something ????

So he moved from the balcony ganja smoker 'guest house' to another 'guest house' where they all wear tie die and play reggae music in the morning. Ok....

Don't agonize.  If management can't or won't solve the problem, move to a different guest house.

I hate smokers when I want to eat, especially when eating breakfest and someone lightning a cigarette on the next table. I used to tell them off, but I gave up, and the end result, we are not going back there next time because they let people smoke.

You have a right to be able to eat without being subjected to other people's smoke but this problem wouldn't happen if the law, as it also is in a lot of other countries, was more equitable.  There should be smoking restaurants and pubs and non smoking ones too.

 

Why? Because smokers have rights too, just as you have rights to breath smoke free air, so should smokers have a right to smoke.

 

As a smoker myself, I actually prefer to breath smoke free air so mostly choose a non-smoking establishment and usually go outside or use an 'allowed' area to smoke. I live alone in both the UK and Thailand but don't smoke inside the house in either location. But I also get sick of these rules that fail to take account of all factions and in the case of smoking, seem to be created by vehement anti-smokers who wish to impose their wishes on everyone. 

 

I was in Thailand over Christmas/New Year and called in to a bar in Sukhumvit for breakfast one day.  This bar has 3 or 4 seats on the 'outside' and probably 30 seats inside - it allows smoking at the outside seats which I believe is within the law.  I was the only customer when I arrived and sat outside.  I enjoy a smoke after breakfast and duly lit up.  Whilst I was eating my breakfast another guy had arrived and chose to sit outside.  It was quite clear that this bar allowed smoking in the outside area as there were ashtrays on the tables - my rolling tin and lighter were clearly visible.

 

As soon as I lit up, the new arrival complained and asked me not to smoke - I refused, pointing out that he had chosen to sit in an area of the bar where smoking was allowed.  He wasn't very happy - tough.

 

In relation to the OP in this case - as far as I know, the law in Thailand prevents all hotels/guest houses from allowing guests to smoke in their rooms. I stayed in one recently which clearly stated that smoking was not allowed - there was an ashtray in the room ????.

says who......the young men around the corner from the house sit out in front of there place smoking all day, why the wives work the shops in front of the residences.  True many are hard working, like the former monk that was stoned when he did my daughters Thai Tattoo........

Where did he say he owned or rented in the OP. As it is a guest house the OP has a reason to cancel his rental and move. Move would be my answer....

yes pot smokers and regular folk should be separated

Maybe you should look back at the post, it kind of inferred he bought, but then you knew that
