Whats the cheapest place you know of in Thailand for rent or to stay for 3 months?

Question

Anywhere in Thailand, can you give me the name and rates of a specific hostel, hotel, apartment complex that you know is real cheap? I would want my own room but thats about all that matters. Fan or AC. Internet would be cool but not necessary.

Answer 1

Once you get out into the countryside, away from the tourist areas price can go down considerably - - Where I live, you can get a very nice Western style house for a little over $100 a month - one friend just rented a lovely 2 bedroom home on the Ping River - terrific views and a nice breeze for $110 - There are rooms for $50 but maybe a bit small and student oriented - but please understand that there are no western style restaurants etc - - you are in Thailand here.

You might want to try Chiang Mai which has many Western amenities and rooms that can be had quite reasonably - - google around under "Chiang Mai, rentals" -  

Answer 2

The best way is to go look with a Thai person who can help you.  Your find many places for rent but they are listed on for sales signs in Thai.  Your can find a number of places for rent.  In fact I know of a place in Ranong a town house for 3,500 baht a month.  In the northeast I am sure you could also find something cheaper.  Your going to get what you pay for.  No a/c, no hot water, fix me up type place.  Good Luck.
