You'll be fine. No need to use chopsticks

I was in Kingston suites at the end of December. IMO the hotel is not as good as it used to be. The rooms are getting older and some of the facilities aren't working as they should. If you think you are getting a good deal, sure go for it. But personally they're no longer one of my go to hotels.

I just stayed 2 nights there. The rooms are modern and clean. Convenient to nana. The roof top bar makes a tasty cocktail and has decent views. Worth checking out if you can find a good price. Fyi the check in is separated, the lower rooms are for ibis and higher rooms for Novotel. For now they share a breakfast area though. Lastly, there's no business lounge which is a shame.

Oops my bad, must've been rushing and only saw Sheraton. In any case, Sheraton is fantastic and I would recommend wholeheartedly.

Excellent hotel, super convenient for soi cowboy. the room I stayed in previously overlooked lake ratchada. Girl friendly also.

Agree with others, either renting the whole apartment or not at all. No need to rent just a room for somewhere as cheap as Bangkok.

Can try calling/emailing/showing up at the hotel to book direct, but there's no guarantee. You'll probably have to settle for a worse/more expensive hotel.

Staph infections are no joke, they absolutely can kill people if left untreated. Sorry to hear buddy.

What is the "standard" price for a moto between SC and NEP? 40-50b?

Unless you're going to taxi to/from your hotel every time I would suggest the hotel closer to sukh road. Girls aren't going to want to walk that far. Hotel gyms are pretty terrible in terms of weights anyway. I would suggest Kingston suites. Great rooms, large bathrooms, walkable to sukh road, can use the (crappy) gym of an affiliated hotel next door.

Use a rubber. Do NOT take antibiotics unless a doctor tells you to.

Jasmine city hotel was quite nice a few years ago

I've always used dtac, no complaints. Ais seems reasonable too.

I've stayed at of of their suites for a week a while back. Rooms are perfectly acceptable but the property is a few minutes away from the main road, meaning girls won't be thrilled walking there, and since it's a one way street cars will have to drive up soi 5 and loop around.

Yes its a good choice for your first trip. The clientele is almost entirely mongers so zero problems with staff, breakfast was provided when I was there 18 months ago, and in some rooms you can literally see the nep bars. It'd be perfect if it was cheaper though.
