Good Boys, former New Screw Boys. I haven't been since before Covid.

I know of Tivoli Sribampen Bangkok has monthly rates, and Mosaik Apartments Pattaya. Watch out, a friend stayed 37 days at the Mosaik and was charged one month at the montly rate and 7 days at the daily rate.

Here my experiences from 2014, still valid: https://christianpfc.blogspot.com/2014/05/looking-for-room-in-sathorn.html For two months you will have difficulty, most places have minimum 3 month or even 6 months. I rather recommend a hotel with monthly rental, so you don't have to buy and wash bedlinen and towels and pay water, electricity, WiFi extra. Most such places have a communal coin laundry. There stand-alone coin laundries as well, or you give your clothes to laundry. I have been living and traveling without a room safe for 15 years, and the safe would not have prevented the few thefts that occurred.

Just the opposite when I walked in to 101 K Spa (former K B Boy, Ladprao Soi 101). Receptionist's first words were: Do you want top or bottom?

Different prices for Farang and non-Thai Asian: Stickman put it that way, for lady bars, that non-Thai Asian are more likely to accept the first quoted price (which be an opening point for negotiation), whereas Whites are more like to negotiate. I wouldn't call it a cruising place, it's a place of prostitution. Apart from incident in 2013 (analysis here https://christianpfc.blogspot.com/2024/08/dating-thai-boys-98-at-wrong-end-of.html) I consider it safe. I have taken 5 different boys over the last two years, two of them more than once. Details in my blog under gay activities of the month, or label street trade. There is a short time hotel S hotel เสาชิงช้า nearby and I recommend taking the boy there. It's just 200 THB and if you take a boy back to your room, he would ask for 100 for taxi back. The area is now easy to reach with about 10 min walk from MRT Sanam Chai to Saphan Hok (Lifting Bridge) สะพานหก, which I would say is the center. The boys are along both sides of the canal north and south of the bridge. Most speak little or no English. I once spotted a Chinese ? customer using translation on his phone. When they are in groups, probably one can speak some English and translate for the one you like. Keep in mind most boys are straight, which limits activities. Most customers come by car, however I prefer walking. It's busy from 8 pm on (which is different from 10 years ago, when it started 10 pm).

He is absolutely right! Across all ages and places, the average price of prostitution is a daily wage. It's just when first world tourists meet second and third world prostitutes, that things get out of order. Whereas in Saranrom (streettrade, predominantly local market with Thai customers and Thai providers) boys still go for 500. When I was in Myanmar in January, prices as low as 30k MMK (about 6 USD) tip for one hour massage and happy ending. I have to admit I have problems finding boys for 1000 on the apps. I haven't been to Bangkok gogo bars for 6 years because I disapprove of their pricing. It is very important to distinguish what is asked for or offered and what is actually settled as a deal. I didn't know and would never know (different tip expectations for non-Thai Asian and Farang). Whereas that Thai (and I as a foreigner speaking Thai) can get it considerably cheaper, I'm aware of and take advantage of.

I don't see the problem (putting my hands on mocy driver's shoulders, with or without my suitcase between us).

I do this when I have my suitcase on my knees between me and the driver and never had an objection. Else hands on my knees or on my sides. I avoid mocy taxis, I take them maybe 10 times per year, whereas cars 100 times per year.

Super A used to be gogo, but a few years ago they changed to fully dressed boys and thus lost me as a customer. Nature Boys is tiny. There is space for a few boys and customers. Which is not my style. When I look through the door to assess the situation (number of boys, music level, smoking), I can instantly see if any of their boys is my type, and if not, which is the usual outcome, it's not worth sitting down for a drink.

Neither of them, they are in different location. OP, going back in streetview to their oldest picture Oct 2012 doesn't help. I don't remember any bar there, must have been before my time (first trip to Pattaya 2010).

On Mon20oct2025 Bangkok I was nearby and wanted to have dinner in Madrid, but found it closed without notice. Before I take a taxi or go on a longer walk, I would call in all cases to make sure they are open.

There are no age restrictions in gay saunas in Bangkok, however the R3 group discourages older by higher entry prices. A friend is of similar age and looks and likes 39 underground sauna.

Getting medicine from Pulse is rather expensive. You can get the same much cheaper not far away at Pripta or Red Cross. I prefer Hornet and HeeSay over Grindr.

I would put the end around 2015-17, but you seem to know better. The place has been vacant for many years, with original sign still there (deteriorating). I took pictures, but it would take too long to find them among the many (AI might come to help for picture search). Just two days ago I passed, and now finally, the first time since Happy Boys closed, there is a new business in the premises. That's over 10 years of vacancy!

There are a few gay saunas and massages in the provinces. I have been to some of them, nothing to write home about. The boys are no cuter and the prices no lower than in Bangkok. A complete list (to my best knowledge) of gay massages in Esan here: https://christianpfc.blogspot.com/2025/07/gay-activities-mar2025-thailand.html There are gay saunas in Ubon, Udon, Khon Kaen. I have been to all, details in my blog. No gay bars or disco that I know of.
