Bangkok Baby!
Don't really have any first impressions of Bangkok except to say it's BIG! 9.1 million
what I recently read. 25 minutes on the sky train from the airport didn't get us very far. Tried to find a bus connection, but failed miserably and gave up after taking directions from 2 separate people. So we just took 2 more trains and walked.

Slept until 10am!
Brian was out like a light and slep 12 hours after not sleeping on the plane the previous night. I had a hard time falling asleep until about 5am and then slept for 5 hours straight.
Needless to say we had a late start to our day, so we took the boat up to the old town and had some amazing street food. This was a …
Is there an honest taxi driver in Bangkok?
The alarm started beeping at 7am and I struggled to open my eyes as I hadn't had the best sleep. I eventually got up and jumped straight into the cold shower which woke me up a fair bit. I packed the rest of my backpack whilst Andrew got a shower and then we were both ready for our taxi to Thongsala pier. We saw the owner stood on the driveway so …
Shopping Spree
Andrew woke up at 6:45am and didn't manage to go back to sleep whereas I was flat out until he woke me up at 9am. We both felt really tired probably a result of the long journey the previous day. Anyway, I had a cool shower and got ready and although Andrew had already claimed that he didn't need a shower he made his way to the shower after me. I …
Bangkok 1
Hello everyone!
I have been in Bangkok for 2 days now and am amazed by the cultural difference. The atmosphere is amazing!!! Really busy and colourful. We attended the Silom cookery school this morning and learnt how to make traditional home cooking dishes. We were taken to a local market to buy the produce and then cooked 6 dishes! …

Nice hotel with Thai and international staff that speaks English exceptionally well. They were incredibly helpful in giving advice on what to see in the city and they helped us book bustickets when we wanted to leave Bangkok. Very trustworthy! I can definitely recommend them!

I think coming from such a nice place at such a low price in Siem Reap may have made this place seem extra unsatisfying to me. We booked online the 280 baht a person, backpackers room with bunk beds and a fan and shared bathroom but they were full so they up-grated us to the 450 baht simple room for the same price. The only difference is a private bath and one big bed. The room is so small, the shower head is super high up and sprays all over the bathroom as well as leaks onto the floor. The fan sounds like it's about to explode, the blanket on the bed is super thick for it being around 90 degrees in here so I slept on top of it and got a bunch of bug bites. They advertise that you can get internet in every room, not in ours at least. Seemed you could only get it on the main and 4th floor.
The common area is nice, and they have nice wood tables and chairs outside under a covered porch. But the food is pricey considering what you could get somewhere else. They charge 3 times the price for beer as 7-11 which there are 3 within a 4 block radius. Oh, it's also in the financial district, which we didn't realize until we went to go out at 6pm and everything was closed and the streets were dead.
When leaving they tried to charge us for items we did not take from the mini bar, the reception was very rude. Although the guest services people were very kind and helpful.

The place was a reasonable price, and a far nicer stay that anywhere on Khao San Road. The room was clean and comfortable, with daily cleaning, and the reception was helpful. The breakfast was nice, if a little expensive for a backpackers budget. The only downside was the lack of lift, which was fine for most travellers, but we were on our way home when we stayed, and had a heavy bag each full of souvenirs! Thanks for a great stay though, and for the complementary water bottles at our 5am check-out on the way to the airport.
