was Sukumvit Soi 1. It turns into a river when it rains hard.
\n<\/a>
\nIt\u2019s full of hawkers plying their wares near open sewer grates on really small sidewalks so you\u2019re forced to walk in the street.
\nBut on Soi 1 is the Number 1 Guesthouse, Bar, Internet Cafe. Take your pick, it\u2019s all the same place. Check out the journey to my room.<\/p>\n


\nWalk into the cafe part.
\n<\/a>
\nThey make food here and have DSL access for 1 baht\/minute. If you stay here and log in off peak, you get 20 minutes free. It helps.
\nWalk to the back and hang a left. Go up these stairs.
\n<\/a>
\nThen these.
\n<\/a>
\nUp ONE more flight!
\n<\/a>
\nUp yet ONE more flight!
\n<\/a>
\nNow you\u2019re in an area where there\u2019s a common bathroom area. Walk into the building next door. And go down these stairs.
\n<\/a>
\nMake a U turn and you\u2019re in what was once known as a \u201cstabbin\u2019 cabin\u201d. a bunch of rooms that was part of the Number 1\u2019s bar back before it\u2019s current ownership.

\nYou know, meet a girl at the bar, need a place to go? Rent it by the hour!
\nHow did I figure this out? First off, the big ass mirror over the bed.
\n<\/a>
\nYeah, I can see myself snoring from the bed! Second, there\u2019s a big note over the bar that says \u201cwe dun sell rooms by the hour, period!\u201d. And lastly, there\u2019s a set of stairs that go down into the bar. That door is usually locked.
\nI picked this place because they have cheap, decently fast DSL, the place was cheap and it was near Duker\u2019s place, just 50 metres or so down the road.
\nInteresting…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
