Looking for affordable one month stay in Chiang Mai

[bananafarang]

I am looking for affordable place to stay one month from Feb 1st to March 2nd. Need to have kitchen or place to cook. Would like to stay under 10,000 baht. Any ideas? Thanks in advance and apologize if this is not the right forum for this topic.

Do you have your own transportation?

If so, you can get a lot more for your money outside the city center.

50 Baht gets you a cardboard box outside of Tops supermarket. 300 Baht gets you a gas burner. Plenty left for beer... but more seriously there are plenty of apartments with a burner and a microwave available in that budget range but none with a stove. Just Google and find where the broke digital nomad lives in Chiang Mai.

Yes I have transportation. Outside of city limit is actually preferred

Most normal rentals would be for a one year contract, or 6 months if really lucky.

So AirBnB.com is by far your best bet.

You left it late though, and there are LOTS of visitors to Chiang Mai right now. So you may have to do something like 1 week somewhere, and then the remaining 3 weeks some place else. Might actually be a good thing to move around a bit.

Some AirBnB hosts give a discount for monthly stays; rates should be compared vs hotel accommodation though, it's a lot higher than just renting a similar place for a year.

Emporium Residence in Santhitham Road.

Minimum long stay 1 month for 6,000bht. Outside balcony with kitchen sink.

Buy your own Microwave or hob for less than 2,000bht. depending on needs.

Car park under building.

I've come across some monthly apartments but they are all within the city limits if you are willing to broaden your search.

In the Nimmanhaemin area, Suan Suandok off Soi 17 has units starting at 4,000 baht.

In the neighborhood behind the YWCA near Huay Kaew Road, you will fin several apartments. Examples: P Place Apts (http://www.booking.com/hotel/th/chiang-mai-p-place.html) starting around 7,000 baht mo.,and around the corner, the Sunshine Guest House (http://www.booking.com/hotel/th/sunshine-house.html), with monthly units starting around 6500 baht. Both are about a 15 minute walk from the Kad Suan Kaew shopping center.

Walking around this neighborhood on the way to the Maya shopping center, I saw a number of new units, one at 3500 baht monthly.
