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

Can anyone recommend a few of these budget hotels (750 baht neighbor-
hood) that are close to a BTS skytrain station?

Thanks,
Elizabeth

Just the right budget for reasonable accomodation, so don't worry.

I often stay at Nana Inn, just opposite the Grace Hotel and next door
to the Bangkok Bank branch in Sukhumvit soi 3. Its a nice family run
hotel. Rooms are carpeted, and have TV, telephone, and mini-bar, and
cost 850 Baht a night. The food in the restaurant is good also.

Its within walking distance of either Nana or Ploenchit BTS stations.
