Thailand: 750 baht / night?

Is an accomodation budget of an average of 750 baht reasonable? I'm
getting some mixed results. We don't need luxury, but don't want to
sleep with cockroaches and rats either.

Thanks.

Where in Thailand? You won't be sleeping with cockroaches in Bangkok for
that. Many places on the mainland are cheaper than Bangkok, some islands are
more expensive though.

Thanks. We plan to start in Bangkok, then up to Chaing Mai (sp) then
down to the islands. We'll be avoiding Phuket and Ko Samui for sure
(I hear they are upmarket).

You'll find a variety of accommodation on Phuket and Samui to suit all
budgets. I've been to both and loved them but they are very touristy.

You can sleep in reasonably comfortable guesthouses for 250 baht/night. Or
less, even.

I agree.. 750 baht/night would just about get 5 stars

- Bangkok is accomodation 250-750B a night in a guesthouse
Hotels from 500B and up

- Chiang Mai have plenty of acc. and theres a fight for guests
I guess for about 150-350B is some resonable to find
don't use a Hotel here.
I learnt the stuff here is unfriendly and a worst service.

- In the touristic places at thes costs and ilands is around double prices
as Bangkok.
