I have not but I have a buddy who lived there. It’s safe, cheap, and quiet. He did multiple stints over a few years and kept going back.
Mongering is still available, but nowhere nearly as prevalent as BKK or Patts.
Aspen Suites and/or Solo hotel on Soi 2. Both were nice and quiet and no problem with guests.
10 min walk to Nana or a 300 baht tuktuk to Cowboy.
5 min walk to a nice grocery store on the lower level of Ploenchit Plaza.
I stayed at Aspen suites on Sukhumvit 2.
Guest friendly. Pool. Short walk to Nana/BTS. There’s a grocery store on the lower level of Ploenchit center that’s a 5 min walk so you can get any supplies you need. It’s also on a dead end road so the neighborhood feels quiet.
Would recommend.
