That brings back memories, was my 1st time in BKK. Stayed out on Sukhumvit at a hotel that was recommended by Utopia.....had a hell of a time finding Babylon. How spoiled we are with GPS and Google maps and translate now. Luckily , a local at Babylon took me for a tour of all the gay bars in the Silom/Suriwong area, otherwise I probably would've stayed in the Sukhumvit area and host bars there.

Worse traffic than BKK.....mostly undiscovered gay life than most other Latin American countries....I could easily live in Lima for 6 months. Great sauna downtown ...240 Dangerous Disco....Sagitario Disco in safer area....Vale todo Downtown a few other small places that come and go Lots of hot smooth Peruvians and Venezuelans on Grindr....many for free or almost free. Beware, Peru is the counterfeit capital of USD 😳 My recommendations are pre-Covid.....not sure what has survived.

It's all in the eyes with Arabs and Indians.....in my opinion. If they sparkle when they look/talk with you.....doesn't mean they love you, means they are willing, lol

How about the disco in that area...Bank Studio? Was my favorite.......

A friend of mine staying at the Peninsula came to stay at Tarntawan to use as a hook-up room while he's in this side of town. He booked a standard room on the back side of the hotel and said it's really run down.... Even though he's paying more, I booked months ago, my room is much nicer....... So back side rooms are what it sounds like many talked about.....if you're considering this hotel, the few bucks more is well worth it apparently.

I arrived BKK today from Pattaya, staying at the Tarntawan and went near Super A to do laundry. While I was waiting outside the laundry place, the Mamasan (owner??) screamed when you saw me , I have that affect on people, she offered me a water and said she's only been open 2 weeks now. I finished late with my friend from NYC and didn't realize everything was closing at 1am....so I walked to Super A, they were closed also....but guess who was open....Golden Cock/Nature boys. Just a fraction of it's former self, but they stay open until whenever.....with locals and other working boys stopping by, I'm told. There was a guy I went with before COVID, had a couple of drinks and he came back to my hotel.....I like the sleeze bars more than Dreamboys ....and places like that. The guys are more appreciative and really work for their money 😉

I'm in BKK with a flight to DPS in a week .....I'm not good at trip reports, but will post anything that stands out.....

A boy would never be seen with such ugly shoes...

Been a lot of comments here how it's a run down hotel, better deals for better hotels, etc.... I think it's as nice as it has ever been.....the bed is very good, I booked a front of the bldg room. Breakfast isn't a buffet I'm told, there are 3 options, Thai, western, Japanese until 10:30 am. I ordered lunch....very delicious.....My friend is staying at the Peninsula, the pics look amazing...but for $25 usd a night, breakfast for 2 and the location near the bars...I'll take Tarntawan any day. Back rooms without food was $17 when I booked..... Also the internet is SUPER fast, 5G connection

Not yet....he was sitting in @home bar the other night. I asked what the plans were, don't remember the reply, It was late and I was drinking 🙄

STOP!!!!!

They remodeled the place before Covid.......so the description wasn't correct, maybe 4-6 years ago 🙄

I was underwhelmed at that hotel....and it takes a lot to underwhelm me 😏

The 2 years before Covid, is where I think I did most of my off's

I feel incognito this way...😷

In Pattaya I think I'm the only one with a mask, lol

3-way

Went tonight, spice level was for foreigners , even though we asked for very spicy.....average food, wouldn't go back. Been here many times, usually late at night......was there on my 1st night this trip, waiter had kind of a bad attitude but food was good.

was like my bible back in the day...I met him once at an Isaan food night at Balcony Pub Bar in Soi 4, really nice, helpful, funny guy.

I arrived in Pattaya Saturday...off from Nice boys, then someone from Jomtien complex after he finished work. Since they had to close at midnight Sunday, went with the same guy to the beach to drink after he finished work, stayed there until almost 5am..... I'd like to write a trip report, but my brain races like squirrels running around and it will end up , probably 😏

I agree 100%

Garoto de Programa= Moneyboy in Brasil

This should go well....😬

I went to Chili Pepper once.....after going to GP saunas and being able to shop and pick anyone there....the "for free" saunas are annoying, usually. Guys that aren't my type wanting and touching me and the guys that I want, not interested or more bottom than me, lol I like feeling like a Kennedy every now and then (as I heard someone tell Customs in the USA upon being asked why he goes to BKK so much)....SO the GP saunas fit that bill 😁

OK, he just informed me he's looking for Thai, Laos type restaurants ....he said why would he come to Thailand for mediocre French food in lol (he travels to Paris a lot I guess) Thanks for all the suggestions, I'll see if I can convince him to try one of the places anyway 🙄
