Guest stef Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 Has anyone stayed there before ? I need to know if they do have internet access ( high speed and not a 56 k modem deal ) in the room.. I have emailed them few times but didn't get any answers yet... Thanks Stef Quote
Bob Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Have stayed there several times before but last time was 2-3 years ago. They had zero internet access in the rooms and, to be honest, I don't even remember that they had a computer with internet access on the main floor that the guests could use/rent (maybe they do but I don't remember ever seeing it and I always used an internet shop elsewhere). Regardless, I am very fond of the place. Quote

A friend is visiting from the US and would love to stay there... and the localization is just perfect. But if I don't have my daily dose of internet.. I'll go nuts Quote
Bob Posted August 14, 2008 Posted August 14, 2008 Glad to hear that they've added wireless internet. I'd like that too. Unless things have changed, what I really liked about Tui's is the deathly quiet at night. During the day, it's just a gentle stroll out the front door to the gay beach area and it's just a walk to the corner to grab a baht bus to town. When around Pattaya (not very often anymore), I find the town itself a bit intense after a couple of days and staying at Tui's seemed to make the whole experience a bit more of a quiet/palatable beach holiday, at least to me. In the past, Tui pretty much locked up the place by 11PM but there's a security guard stationed outside who'll let you in after the place goes dark. Seven or eight years ago, when walking from the corner down to Tui's at 2AM or so, occasionally some soi dog acting like Cujo wwould scare the bejeebees out of you but the path lights started to calm that situation down. I've heard a couple of comments about security concerns walking down there late at night but I never felt any concerns (but, then again, if I was walking from the corner to Tui's at 1 or 2 AM, it was about a 95% chance I was slightly inebriated at the time....).
