If you have a lump sum you can frequently get a better deal if you pay for several months in advance.
That was in Bankok at the bottom end of Suhkumvit soi 22 , behind eau ammon apartment complex , i only gave it up at the beginning of this year as i decided to stay in Cambodia . I kept it as a year round project as that was still cheaper than renting at a guest house for 6 months and i got to keep all of my appliances , micro , 29'' TV ,small stove , sandwich maker etc , plus clothes etc , so only needed to carry minimal things on the plane .Colin
