Guesthouse Trat

... A really lovely place to stay, for the unbelievable price of kr. 25!!! And my room is the 'expensive' one. The guesthouse is shiny super clean and soooooooo friendly. Photos will come later...   Once settled, went out to explore the little ...

... in Trat: Ban Jaidee Guest House - 150 THB per night for a fan room with shared bathroom. Chaimongkol Rd. Really lovely guesthouse, clean and fairly quiet with lots of cats. Owners really friendly and speak good English. They have a good photocopied map ...

... didn't want to stay there so we just walked to one we'd pencilled in from the Lonely Planet). Ended up staying at Guy Guesthouse (200B, fan, toilet - no tp, no sheets), which is fairly clean, except for the floors and has friendly staff and they organise ...

... off from the heat. We ate dinner at Pop's as we had an early start as we had bought our transport tickets through the guesthouse for 700 baht each to Sihanoukville. (We have seen that it is cheaper to travel direct from the Khao San Road direct but glad ...

... savne et rundstykke i saadan en situation:-). Kl 6 gik turen videre og efter yderligere ca. 6 timers bustur ankom vi i Trat. Vi fandt et super rart lille guesthouse og fik os indlogeret. Da vi paa det tidspunkt havde vaeret paa farten i ca. 20 timer var ...

Bus from Bangkok East bus station (B189) to Trat (6h). Stayed at Pop Guesthouse (which I'd thoroughly recommend) with a couple of Swiss guys. We had a nice walk to Pier 112 restaurant on the river where we had dinner with an English couple, ...

... didn't arrive until 11pm and after a quick fare barter with the taxi man we were checking into what looked like a really nice guesthouse in a city we'd never heard of before! The last ferry to Ko Chang had unfortunately left hours earlier, leaving us with ...

Saavuimme Bangkokiin kuuden jälkeen aamulla. Suuntasimme ensimmäiseksi Khao San Roadille, koska se oli todennäköisin paikka saada aamupalaa siihen aikaan aamusta. Kadulla oli vielä täysi meno päällä, baarit olivat auki ja "yöseuran" metsästys ...

... we were stuck there for the evening because our bus didn't get in until well after dark.  We ambled around and found a cheap guesthouse (notice I did not describe it as suitable - ugh) to stay for the night.  As I said, it wasn't a great place ...

... far we've enjoyed the luxury of North American style toilets, rather than the squat alternative. The next morning we found a wonderful guesthouse in a rubber-tree plantation up from the beach. Since we'd already spent some time on the beach, this was ...

... he decides it's a good idea to whip out his machette to impress his missus! Stunned silence soon followed. So now I find myslef in Trat. I hadn't planned to come here, infact, no one does, but to tell you the truth, it's the first place I've been to ...

... it, read all about the scams to avoid, and after all we had done it before, though not at this particular crossing in the south near Trat. She must have thought we said we wanted to get cross at the border. So she arranged it for us, and we did get very ...

... to avoid old and newly placed mines and I don't mean the underground vein of gold kind. Have spent the night in Trat-the provincial (beats me what province) capital bordering Cambodia and situated 400 miles from Bangkok. Our room at rooftop level was ...

... suits. Early bus from Koh Kong with a 6am start - neither of us had slept much anyway as the power went off in the guesthouse at 9pm, taking the fan with it! Still the early start let us see the locals come to life and worryingly a few only ...

... it. The pier itself is only a couple of metres wide, but the whole construction is much wider than that. We're staying at Boo Guesthouse (500B, no tp, no sheets, cold shower), which is out on the pier, so if we look down through the floor boards we ...

... the guesthouse was full, there were scarcely any people about when we checked in, and we were pleased to find that the guesthouse and accompanying beach offered the peace and quiet we were looking for. We quickly changed and went down to the beach for ...

We finally got to leave the hospital and even got a free lift to the backpacker street. We went to 'Pop Guesthouse' where we had eaten breakfast the day before to see if they had a room available. They had one for B300, but Andrew wanted somewhere ...

... but here in Thailand people are different. We dashed onto the train and just managed to make the bus to Trat.  We checked into a place called 'Guy's guesthouse' (not the best but had sounded OK in the LP-why are we still trusting that you ask?) ...
