they shouldn't , after all there you pay them enough. I can understand why budget places may ask for joiner fee / more water used , extra towel etc./ but they usually don't as they want repeat business as well I wish I could say the same , still a bit to go, sigh

but better count your change if you paid with 100 note, last two times I did I got 80 as change so as always , better to be prepared with exact change. I know it's great disservice to all visitors but in both cases I let them have that 10 baht extra.

that is exactly what I tell mamasans harassing me for tips

look at bright side - at least you are in Pattaya

market forces at work - Africans like hunks are rarity and therefore command higher price. Twinks are not stupid , they know from their better built bar friends how much they got and try higher as well but I found blunt explanation ' I like big boys " works. But Christian , biguyby and Boy 69 are correct although I preach what i don't practice because neither short time nor twinks are nor my territory but sometimes I go astray.

Looks that is solved, at least as far as I can see

Yep, I have a button ' you can't start new topic" in place where "start new topic" button was. Scooby perhaps need to look into issue.

it's perhaps towel charge as in heavy rain passengers are bringing quite a bit of water inside.

It's why , even knowing they don't like it I still continue to distribute tips and in fact pay in coins if I have them

you stay at the church that late?

looks serious, hopefully nobody was crushed. Don't they have better place to crash a crane than atop on my favorite , beside Arena, massage place ?

second part is even better , you better watch yourself as you may fall in love. Certainly fabulous vacations for all to envy

exactly opposite to me , for some bed is important for a good sleep , for others a pillow takes precedence and it's best if boy is that pillow.

you are talking about room prices or Long Time boy tips?

You are taking serious risk if you follow underscored comment of vinapu or the likes as it may mean different thing to different people. Sometimes out of boredom I read comments on agoda , expedia or booking.com on places I stay and know very well and am amazed what people are saying. We human race like to generalize based on sometimes very cursory experience.

replace ' fancy hotels' with ' boy tips' and you find that subject is well discussed and rehearsed here. questions abound but both big spenders and cheap charlies stick to their questionable habits no matter what we say

not necessarily, it depends on many factors. I think I told that story before -once when in Bangkok I learned that one of my childhood friends is there on business so we met . He is very successful businessman so I expected he will be staying in something like Conrad or Mandarin while in fact he was in some very ordinary hotel in one of Sukhumvit 20 something sois. He told me that while he probably could afford to book all hotel for himself he decided on ordinary room as almost all his time was spent outside on meetings , functions etc. so all he need was relatively traffic free quiet street hotel with only ordinary amenities. So some of our neighbors on the plane in economy may be actually sitting on pile of cash while others at front may be people of modest means who decided to treat themselves once of every 12 years.

no, I actually see now that a447a could read my comment as accusatory if one focuses on first part of sentence quoted

MY LAUD APOLOGIES BUT THIS IS NOT WHAT I MEANT. I should underscore that part in original comment, like i did just now above. I actually remembered your hotel f***k story from few years ago, what I doubt and only that was that watching this would actually horrify you. Original narrative says nothing about you were horrified and rightly so. You probably don't realize that along with williewillie, anonone and Michael you have special place in my heart as long as this forum is concerned. When back in 2013 , after years of lurking here I made my first post ever and it was trip report I was so stressed about possible response that I sweared to myself if I receive even one negative comment I'm done with posting for good. Instead four saints mentioned above including you actually welcomed me and encouraged to continue which i do to this day and rest assured , not in order to offend anybody.

Drim took pains and time to write to us and most he got as reward are complains about lack of spaces to improve readability. Don't you guys understand his eyes were still misty recollecting that fabulous, fun and lust filled trip?

'Boys" in both cases, I'd not dismiss it as not much. But I agree , you caught discrepancy nicely

but for 100 baht a piece , boys rather loved it I guess

whom you are kidding ?, don't try to dent your credibility here

see Terry4, we have one already

I like your report too and can only imagine what next installment will be. I see good sign in fact he agreed to Long time and from your enthusiasm above I 'm sure you guys had fun , fun , fun
