Wayne, have you ever considered any of the D Condo's or Supalai Monte 1 and 2? I used to live in D Condo Sign and the gym and pool are world class. The room was a little small, but I lived in it no problem for 3 years. I only paid 6900 baht a month and that included the full use of the amenities and electricity was cheap. I'm not sure if those sorts of condos are your cup of tea, but I thought I'd mention it anyway. Great video brother. Keep them coming.

Hi Jason, I've never really considered the D Condos, but that's not because I don't like them, they are great places. I'm in D Condo a lot, many friends stay there, and I was dating a girl from D Condo. The pool is awesome and all the area around the pool.

Awesome review Wayne!!!

Agree with you Wayne. The two bedroom unit had an amazing view but looked pretty tired. Restaurants and traffic sewers don't mix IMO. That cafe on the main road is the last place I'd go for a bite to eat. Any chance of you checking out Chang Phueak area just north of Lanna hospital? Looks great on street view. Hopefully I will get back to CM later this year.

Good review Building appears to lack maintenance in some areas Prices not bad One bedroom unit to me would be considered a single unit without the proper separate bedroom, but I do prefer the layout of the one bedroom unit. The deal breaker would be no elevator

You always compare the places you tour to your current place. How about you show your current place, as you seem to make it cheaper and better than most of the other places you show(5 - 6.5K baht)?
