When I was a bit younger in my 40s, I didn’t mind staying in super cheap places but now that I’m in my 50s, I do try to go at least mid range.😉🌴🏡

When l was younger l preferred Pattaya, now I'm more mature l prefer Jontiem.

That hotel checks all the boxes, especially the SHTHOLE BOX ☑️

Another chill entertaining and informative video of Jomtien. Thanks very much and have a great time in Pattaya.

Eddie if you don't change that diet you won't last much longer!! 😳

I was impressed by this video. Jomtien looks like my kinda place!

Nice video Eddy, and it's got me sold on Jomtien. I think the seediness of Pattaya can get you down after a while. Hope you are feeling 100% better again soon.

Cheers Eddie. Thanks for sharing mate.

Well done Ed cannot wait to next video food looked nice

Thanks for the tour Eddy! The Wombat Kiwi bar is great. The food as you stated is exceptional and of high quality. The owner Steve does a great job, place is really clean and the girls are easy on the eyes.

Looks nice in Jomtien never been there the food looks nice as well, thank you for the video my friend. 👍

Thanks Eddie, great vid. Jomtien seems like a pretty good option these days.

Loved this video Edd, food looked very appetizing 👏

I am no snob and stay in Pattaya three months a year but that room you’re staying in would depress me, cheap it may be but with the wiring outside the balcony etc I would have thought you could find something better!

To have the best life in Jomtien, where your staying is so important. Once you’ve found accommodation that is comfortable, it makes all the difference to your lifestyle! Having traveled to over 50 countries and lived a long time in a few, it’s hard to beat in affordability, convenience and ticks all the boxes 😊

that room looks a dump ,sorry mate ,wouldnt be suprised if it had bed bugs

Jomtein is an excellent place to live. 120 baht for the taxi to central Pattaya or if you want to cheap out 10 baht with the bus yeah.

Good to see youre back in Pattaya hope you enjoy it as much as i would 😉 cheers🍻

Eddie looks a little weary. Get some rest mate. You’ve aged years since leaving the King’s land.

Congrats on 50K subscribers!!!

👍👍👍 Another enjoyable show. Congrats on reaching 50k

I've never been there, but I always think it looks very nice there. Your hotel looks great. I'd need earplugs though probably :) Like the nice chill out music you use in your videos. Haven't had time to look at youtube recently, but will be checking in more in the future. All the best !

Good stuff, Eddie.

Jomtien is my place now. Don't stay in central Pattaya anymore. Great cheap food and beer. And some other cultural activities that an educated gentleman like me pursues.

Congratulations! 50k subs well deserved. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Love these little mooches good to see Ed

Hi, Eddy. Glad you went to the wombat. And Kiwi bar. I'd also been there on my last trip to Thailand, Good food, good service. Cheers Eddy 😊

ed i bet the ladys where impressed with that room you stayed in lol

Eddie's Hairdo is brilliant 😂

Congrats on the 50k mate.

Hats off to you Eddy, you definitely a mentally tough guy living like that, I will stick to working and holidays

Eddy every time I hear your voice it brings a smile to my face. Love watching your videos.

That little place you stayed looks ok Ed. Id stay there. Just don’t touch the wires 😂 I made the mistake of staying a bit too close to where the massage boys are when I was there 😂

Better there than here eddy ; would love to be there in the sun , enjoy my friend .

9:58 Ed finally reveals his secret identity!😂😂

Have a good time in Pattaya Ed. Hope you pace yourself with the ladies.

do they still fold the beach chairs two days a week ?

those steps would put me off, but the place looks very nice indeed, but the roadworks would put me right off staying there.. also the food looks fantastic.. cheerz eddie

You deserve a better room, mate! 🙏

Ahhh, hands down my fave kind of Steddy Eddy Video - the classic hotel room review.

Very very very efficient room. Very nice kettle. YES. Everything you could need. And everything works as it should. Brilliant Eddie 😁

I always stay at Jomtien when I visit Pattaya. Very laid back and relaxed. Lovely beach. Cheap hotels. Pattaya only 20 mins away.

Yes. It's a great place for retirement and a stone throw from Pattaya.

Congratulations on your 50000subscribers Eddie. Glad you enjoyed jomtien.

Eastern Economic Corridor. Speed train, U-Tapao airport expansion. Look what they are demolishing & what they are building new. Change is coming fast & be interesting to see how it looks in 5 years.

4:00 you should go to that barbershop Eddy only cuts the hair that he can see.

I stayed on the edge of Jomtien back in the Fall and quite enjoyed it.

Went over to Jomtien for a day for the first time when we were in Pattaya last January , really impressed with it 👍

at 8:32 I was just waiting for Eddi Reader, she of FAIRGROUND ATTRACTION, to start singing ".....from the top....of the bus...." lol. Check out her brilliant song Patience of Angels, dead-ringer for that haunting bass-line. Anyways......Jomtien....smashing place. I've always considered it as a potential base for semi-retirement giving you the best of both worlds with Pattaya just a hop skip and a jump away....if you'll pardon the pun. I've stayed in rooms like that, perfectly acceptable, but I do try and go a wee bit upmarket, like THE HIDEAWAY or the now defunct BOOMERANG GUEST HOUSE( which was fantastic and well-run.)Luv the vids EDDY keep up the good work mate.

Nothing wrong with that hotel Eddy. Hot shower, roof doesn't leak, no bugs and A/C whats not to like. May give Jontien a whirl next time around.

Wishing you good luck for saturday eddie, sure youll be back making videos b4 u know it💪💪

Good video Eddie. I need to spend a bit of time in Jomtien myself. Wombat bar is good and is well run and friendly. Re the beach at the top end, yes I believe it has traditionally been a hang out place for gay males!.

Do you think everything will get better ?

Get yourself down to only fools and horses bar soi 11 bukhaou tonight, nice complex of bars😂

Land at a new condo in couple days in jomtien 🎉 keep missin out bumping into u for 🍻🍻😂

Nice clip Eddy, feel better soon. Notice ya did not have your hat on, sun might of got to you pal

How's the heatwave Eddie?

With all of Ed's KZfaq wealth I am surprised at his lower priced accommodation's. I think he does it to appeal to the rest of us common folks

U r a legend ❤

Eddy, to get the baht bus to Pattaya you've just got to walk up to Thappraya/ Jomtien 2nd rd.

Nice looking beach

I prefer Rhyl….nice beach and there is an Aldi now..for cheap beer and the beach is opposite..

Do you pay cash or a card for the room for the whole week in advance?

omg Ed you pick some shitholes to stay in ffs there is better by a mile for the that money. your money your choice. traditional sunday roast really? well ive never seen a baked tomato on a sunday roast before

Jomtien is where the boys go, been that way for decades.

Will it go round in circles?

Jomtien for me is like the smaller version of Pattaya so usually a few weeks at Pattaya then another few in Jomtien to chillout and far better place to swim in.

When we went to Pattaya we never went to Jomitein and I’m sorry we didn’t it looks nice.

The balcony is alright

How much AC did you need to sleep? How much per unit?

I use to stay in rooms like that but not anymore. I've stayed in some great apartments via AirBnB for £30 per night in Portugal and Morocco recently.

Thats defiantly the Boys Town soi in Jomtien even though I am not a visitor to that location. Soi 5 and 7 are the usual haunts for girls and Rompo market across second road. I do like the Wombat and Kiwi bar too. Give me Jomntien over Central Patts any day.

i went to the Bullet Bar in Jomtien, lively little scene

Ed enjoying your travels and looking forward to your settling in Siem Reap, one of my all time favorite places in all of Asia. As a published author and man about town, think about springing for a better quality higher resolution camera. Otherwise it cheapens your Vids and makes them less watchable. Just saying.

so where do you get the baht bus back to pattaya now its a one way street

Good One.

Whats the condition of the beach ?

Missed u by 2 weeks Eddie, jomtien walking street? If u turn right halfway down u will be in no doubt if it's boys town or not.😅. Nowhere near as busy as I remember, heat was oppressive, I in Chiang mai now @ weather very good now,2 days of rain have transformed the place. 😊

U still of the beers eddy went Bangkok few years ago didn't sober for two weeks absolute waste ko San road only place I seen 😀

It’s low season now… not much going on. See ya in November 😊

I stayed right next door last year to that guest house you’re in Eddy, The Thai Orchid, was fine and similar price, I was fortunate that there was no hanging cables outside my balcony and I didn’t experience any noise but too far away from Soi 7 and decent nightlife and with that Baht bus one way be a nightmare, only one Go Go in Jomtien I believe and that’s The Viper opposite Country Road.

Same old same old Price of beer food,hotels girls Come on give something different These type of videos have been done to death😉

It’s a dump

Really Jomtien and Pattaya are effectively two different towns. I've spent time relaxing on the beach in Jomtien and found it so relaxing after the mayhem of Pattaya. I'd consider retiring there if my circumstances allowed. Not sure I'd be eating sunday roasts in 40c heat though Eddy. Nothing wrong with Hotel California by the way!! ;)

Nothing wrong with the room. I’ve stayed in a lot worse. It had everything I require. Massage shop over the road. Price is great. Near the beach. Baht bus to central pattaya. Perfect

Jump on a baht bus to Pattaya=stay in Pattaya. Easier just going there for an arvo for a look instead. Jomptien doesn't do too much for me but you'd get sick of Pattaya as well. They are both relatively cheap for a tourist areas, and no doubt you could find somewhere nice a few streets back closer to the hills. All pretty close by either way, easy on the baht bus or walk. Always good to book one night only, then can confirm the place is acceptable and in a decent location.

Beautiful stuff Eddy. Nice little hotel room, massage places for a bit of rompy pompy on your doorstep and plenty of dining options and nightlife. What more does a man need.

Looks good Eddy, you should give Koh Chang a few days.

I have ONLY stayed in Jomtien. For 20 years. Never ever tried staying in Pattaya. But I got fed up, to be honest.

How long is the one way system in place mate

Cheers pal

The room had a nice kettle 😂

Hi mate, i wish you had said you was in Jomtien we could have met for a few beers, Jomtien is 100% the place to live, cant see me going back to Pattaya to live again

Hello Eddie i have never stayed in jomtien but i like to visit for a change of scenery and its reasonably easy to get to with baht buses. Plus i like to visit Jade House Hotel for lunch and R and R . The beach is nice for a relaxing rest. I think its quite well known it has a gay scene there also. The room was fine i don't do luxury hotels. Have a great time in pattaya 😊

What is hotel called Ed thanks

They are doing the whole road will be 18 Thai months which means a lot longer lol

Can you please display prices in pounds sometimes Eddy! You are English and you have a lot of English followers. I have recommended your channel to dozens of fellow English men and women, so it would be nice to see the odd price displayed in pounds please. I NEVER see an American displaying pound prices on his or her videos. Americans have smart photos just like we do to convert currencies! Thank you!

Keep it steady.

that dinner was tremendous

The hotel you stayed at is typical of many of the soi's around here typical 2-3 star accommodation cheap and basic. I stay in a better furnished and much bigger room a couple of soi's down from soi Welcome for 7000 per month plus electricity and water. My hotel has an elevator better than walking up 3 floors 555. My take after year here is that Jomtien has everything for an expat on a budget. Wombat & Kiwi my regular breakfast place typically for 200 baht for eggs, bacon, toast, juice, tea, toast and latte to finish.
