Asia Airport Hotel Bangkok
the first and only night of aircon rooms-only thing was it was next to a 12lane freeway and under the airport runway!
drop off in Khao San road
Got up the next morning and got taxi into Khao San road=first experience of con artists and it was the hotel i was stopping at!said theyd call me a taxi and as i walked outside he was already there!?He asked for 500baht,but as soon as i asked for discount he jumped to 400!!? Eventually setttled on 300 and that was the start of being on my toes with pricing and rip offs!one couple i met later said theyd paid 1,000bht to get from the airport!
SO got dropped off at the famous Khao San road,at 1pm,30degrees with backpack on hunting up and down for a room.

After getting hassled and stopped every step of the way dived into the Lamphu guest house,nice clean off the road with fan and bathroom down the hall!
