Just the North American basic.

Bulgakov,
The North American "basics" are not basic to most of the world. Try googling Guest Houses in each city or area. They are basic accommodations and cheap [usually] Some have photos. They come with A/C or just a fan. If on the top floor or southern exposure you'll probably want an A/C. Many good hotels in Thailand from the incredibly expensive to fairly cheap and basic.
If you're going to be in Thailand for just a month I'd suggest having 2-3 'bases' say Bangkok, Chiang Mai and another and do trips out from them - either to visit other regions or hill tribes. A month isn't much time but it should tell you whether you can acclimatize to the weather [hot and humid] and if you like the country, the people, the food and being able to navigate while not [my guess] knowing the language. You don't need to know Thai but it does help a bit. Still, most of us get by in English, French or German. Don't know about basic Canadian though.
