Short time hotels in Bangkok
expotbkk replied to expotbkk's topic in Hotels & Accommodations in Bangkok
What happened to the prices at atlas hotel? Just came back from there. 2h for 800 THB. Are they crazy? That's basically nearly a full night for some other hotels in this area. Don't forget, these hotels have nothing except 2 towels. No water. Not even a blanket. In my room, the trash was still full with condoms from the previous visit. -
Honestly, go in your country before or after. There are some barbers, but they're all hit and miss. The quality is not the same like in the west. So just don't risk it. But if you don't want to listen: I go to the barber chain NeverSayCutz. I go there, because I found my barber there who cuts how I like it.

Any museum advice?
expotbkk replied to alucex's topic in Customs, Culture, Traditional Music, Buddhism, Arts and History
You mean museum or an art exhibition? There are two art exhibitions I know. One is next to MBK Mall and is called BACC Bangkok Art and Culture Center. Then there is https://www.bangkokartcity.org/ where you can find other exhibitions. I never have been to an interesting museum in Thailand, so I can't really comment on that. -
I never saw an Ethernet port in a room. Probably my hotels are not classy enough. Don't count on WiFi either. If you want a more reliable connection, buy a tourist contract and add a data package. The mobile internet will be much better than any hotel Internet

Alt Hotel Nana - Good Option Close To Nana Plaza
expotbkk replied to Shuggy's topic in Hotels & Accommodations in Bangkok
Don't get fooled by the "Deluxe Room" crap. The room is dark, it smells like someone is cooking Indian food all day in this room. The interior is old and it has probably the smallest TV, with the worst picture I have seen. The couch is ok, but heavy fucking you should avoid. All in all the "Deluxe Room"s are more a standard, but spacious, room. If you take a room in Alt Nana, take a "Alt Superior Room". They're in the second building, more modern and also guest friendly, because no reception. -
Most time/cost sensitive way to rack up some souvenirs
expotbkk replied to dodi44's topic in General discussion about Bangkok
It's everyday, but some days are special or did they change that? I remember one day was only for flowers and plants and another day the focus on animals? -

expotbkk replied to dodi44's topic in General discussion about Bangkok
Go to MBK. It is completely foreigner based shopping mall with a lot of souvenirs. Be prepared to pay some cash for trinkets, real or not. But about souvenirs, there are dozens of shops full of it. -
I like brewski, because they have of everything different brands. You can taste it and even get consolidated by the bar man if you have questions.

Yes it's Balkan food. Greek restaurants and some Italian have it, but it's not the same. I hope I will find one

Local food markets?
expotbkk replied to anthonyy's topic in Restaurants, Places to Eat and nightlife
I would say here are thousands. Actually every little area has there own little market. There are bigger ones too. Probably one of the most popular is the market in huai khwang or the night train market, if it still exists. So your quest will not really be a hard one lol. -
Anyone has an address with a restaurant providing legit Cevapcici? And I don't mean a Greek or Italian copy. Thanks in advance

If you survive (lol) the 3 day fast, try a week later to get a lot more from the autophagy.

Also a common side effect is insomnia. That should start around day 3.
