This apartment will cost around 500 usd a month , based on yearly rental, but if contact owners directly outside airbnb through facebook groups, real estate sites in bangkok you can easily have deals for monthly rental..bangkok is a renters market..nearly every single apartment building in bangkok above 300 usd a month has a pool and gym

Told-ya-so on the bag. :) Building looks like one of the Urbano group's places. Same fixtures and finishes, basic design/layout, and you're right--their security is excellent. Not trying to doxx you or anything. I live in one of their buildings over on the Thon Buri side. (Here, I'll semi-doxx myself: My building is in the sunrise shot looking across Sapan Taksin.) Nice modern places without being the usual tiny shoe boxes that most modern Thai condos are. Good pick. Yeah, the jet lag on a 12ish hour time zone change is no joke. Not sleeping at night even though you're exhausted is just how it works. All you can do is suck it up and *not* nap during the day. (Well, maybe you could try dosing yourself at night to sleep, but I'm pretty anti-that. Up to you.) By day three you should be back to almost normal. Enjoy your stay in the City of Angels.

Been there, too. Now only travel with a carry-on! Be safe in that big city and careful not to share too much info on KZfaq. That's the dad and protector in me. Lol...

I'm informed about the protocol (vaccination, flight, etc.) but I am a little bit anxious about all the ride for ZAP. So, any advice ? Finally, I thank you, you and Loyd, for your videos and have a nice week alone in Bangkok. It will be great. André

Some of the Thailand rent websites you can find places much much cheaper than a $1,000 usd that rent monthly & bigger. The only thing I was told to watch out for is electricity (make sure it’s government & not private). And just keep in mind I don’t live there yet but from my research the MBK mall is a good place for deals on the ground floor & the 3rd floor. For the sleep melatonin. Sorry for all the advice Mandy, just the dad in me.
