    Bangkok 1 Bedroom Apartment for rent

    Ok, first up these are not my photos, I had to steal them from the website due to within a few minutes of moving into the apartment it looked like a rock band and its entourage was staying there, yep, the place was a mess.

    Now I needed to rent a 1 bed apartment in Bangkok for a while and with my fantastic limited knowledge of Bangkok decided to look on the net, here I found sivalaiplace.com, got to admit I didn't realise it was so out of the way, seems to be on a housing house estate so you need to send the security guard out to get you a taxi every time you want to go out, this is a bit of a pain and I am pretty sure they put a surcharge on it, anyway this place is great if you brought your own car, covered parking and everything else you need.

    The 1 bedroom apartment was I think around 30k baht for the month, nicely furnished, 2 air-cons. nicely fitted out kitchenette and bathroom, all in all can only fault its location, has a swimming pool and tennis courts and everything is really really clean.







    168 Isaraphab soi 33, Isaraphab road, Thra Pra, Bangkok-Yai

    That's ridiculously overpriced at 30k.

    ^Obviously having a bit of trouble letting, odd as it right next to Queen Sirikit Convention Centre MRT not Asok. Maybe the washing machine in the bathroom is a deal killer.

    You can get a condo, 1 bed, equal to or even nicer than the one mentioned in the OP for 15-20k and that's lower to mid Sukhumvit. Going out towards on nut make that 10-15k. Head out to Lad Phrao or Ratchada etc 8 - 14k.

    Edit - I will add that is by searching and navigating Thai websites. For example http://www.ddproperty.com/

    Lets be fair, if it was short term, say for only one month, then you'd expect to pay about three times the normal rent.

    For fuck's sake Dog! You run a forum full of expats (and scumbags) living in Bangkok, didn't you think to read the fucking board? (or post for suggestions)

    Edit: Whoops. Uhhmmm... this isn't a disguised advertorial for them is it?
