Olddaddy Posted June 10, 2022 Author Posted June 10, 2022 Thanks Vaughn, I'm guessing mosaik isn't as popular now that Sunee is not really open , I had some great times at the Mosaik Quote

I had a room facing the street with that legal office opposite so I could just see up to the corner of Tuckom from the balcony which helped me keep an eye on when the massage boys were coming in for the day. It looked like the room had a fresh paint job, but it was my first stay so I can't say how recently. I had no complaints about my stay, I spend a lot of time at Winner Boys so I will be back to stay there again next time. fedssocr 1 Quote
Olddaddy Posted June 10, 2022 Author Posted June 10, 2022 I wonder if there are still reasonable hotels in Sunee ? I remember the marina plaza Quote

Very few bars. Most of the 7-elevens around here are closed. I can't think of any decent coffee shops either. Although some find Yensabai Condos are OK. You would probably be better off staying near Tuk Com, for instance at Mosaik. Quote

I remember the marina plaza I stayed a couple of times in Sunee in about 2005 . The hotel was called I think “Elephant”. Convenient of course when offing boys from the maybe 12 gogos. It was ok although I remember one night when a bar next door had some sort of party until about 4am. That’s the problem when you stay in the heart of the action. The Thais have only one setting for the sound system - maximum Olddaddy 1 Quote
Olddaddy Posted June 13, 2022 Author Posted June 13, 2022 I see Marina Plaza is still going ,never ever did stay there though. I wonder if Ban dok mai is still around, I don't see it on the apps unless a name change. Quote

I wonder if Ban dok mai is still around, I don't see it on the apps unless a name change. I stayed at Baan Dok Mai once, probably about 10 years ago. It was a dump. Everything in the room was well worn. The night time side entrance looked very downmarket. Worst of all, I like my showers on the warm side & turning the water temperature up just led to the fuse blowing. Another friend has more recently been staying in Baan Dok Mai on his visits to Pattaya. When this was closed, he switched to Mosaik and found the latter to be far better. Which it is. Quote

Yes Baan dok Mai was run for a long time by a lovely New Zealand guy. I believe he sold it and then it seemed to go downhill Quote

Olddaddy Posted June 13, 2022 Author Posted June 13, 2022 I'm still researching my hotel stay and come across what looks like a gay guest house called Ben & Lek ,however a bit too far walk for me in soi 7 however great rates at average 500b per night. I wish Baan Souy would drop their average 2500b night rates , I used to love Baan Souy but won't pay that silly amount , but fantastic place to chill out vinapu 1 Quote
kokopelli 2 Posted June 14, 2022 Posted June 14, 2022 I stayed at Mosaik about 3 months ago; very inexpensive. Believe I paid 8000 Baht/month which included electric and WiFi. fedssocr and vinapu 2 Quote
gerefan Posted June 24, 2022 Posted June 24, 2022 A friend of mine stayed at the Marina Plaza a few years ago and said “never again”. On line reviews say the same. Quote
kokopelli 2 Posted June 25, 2022 Posted June 25, 2022 I once stayed at Marina Plaza for a short time off; once was enough. Olddaddy 1 Quote
