Actually its also what the British Govt did with the Millenium Dome, not enough people were turning up (due to bad press), so they put the price up!

As to renting for 4 months, its doable I guess, but most want at least 6 months. As FB suggests, you may be able to make a deal with a guest house hat works out as cheap for easier (and have the benefit of room service!). Do you have any Thai friends here that can help make a deal for you before you arrive?
I don't have any friends yet who can help me make a deal but I am not in hurry. I will be in Thailand for a month to explore as I have not yet decided where I want to stay.

Thanks everybody for your answer.
