I think you'd like a rental unit at Center Condo, So Pattaya
I post this in the belief that many other readers might enjoy renting a unit at Center Condo as much as I have in the five years I have been there.
Two 50 sq mtr units are available in Center Condo now for rental.. A friend has two condos available for rent in Center Condo. One is on the 15th Floor (Top floor) , 50 sq. meters in size, "market view", 15,000 baht a month. The other condo offered is on the 8th floor, and is available for 12,000 baht a month, after Saturday of this week. Landlords of both condos seek long term stays. For more information, call Marie at 01-940-1600 -- a most helpful lady. Though Thai, she speaks excellent English.
I firmly believe, based on having lived in Center Condo for more than five years, and still enjoying my rented unit there, that Center Condo is one of the most convenient, centrally located condos one could want, two blocks from the sea, within easy walking distance of Pattayaland and BoyzTown, Sunee Plaza and Day Night areas, and only a block from the main line up area of buses to Jomtien.
Gay welcoming. "You are not alone -- a lot of us live there.". No problems with bringing "of age" guys to your room.
Center Condo is located on South Pattaya Road, right next to Wat Chaiyamonkrol, across from the "fresh market" and 7-11 store, and just behind Krung Thai Bank and a Family Mart store on same side of South Pattaya Road. Good security, large parking lot usually with adequate parking for condo tenants. Center Condo is not readily visible from South Pattaya Road, being behind a row of builidngs (Krung Tai Bank, Family Mart and others), but it is readily and easily accessible, walking, by motorbike taxi, or by car.
If you're interested, please call Marie at 01-940-1600, and feel free to tell her that Allen recommended you call.
G.P.
Sorry, but management blows at CC
Reference Center Condo.
First looking over the property and location, I was happy to find a joint that was close in and not to expensive.
I was shown a couple of units by the staff and noticed on both floors that there was major construction going on. The Jack hammers///the dust////the noise all day long.
The staff assured me that the construction would soon be over. (Lying Bitches)
I placed a deposit and returned about a month later, a few days before I was to move in and pay all first/last and deposits.
Horrors !!!
The construction had not only lessened but increased. The noise was the same with whatever power tool they use to break up the tiles. I was not only disappointed but angry for the staffs indifference to thier lies.
As usual, I tried to get my deposit back and explained that my apartment had not been detailed as promised, the construction had not finished as promised.
Now all the management staff has that blank look on thier faces and can't understand a work of English.
Of course they refuse to refund my deposit.
If you don't mind being cheated and lied to by these sweet and honest looking Thai staff.....by all means rent at Center condo.
I agree that the place is not even close to western standards, but this is Thailand. But with the smiles of a used car sales man, those staff people are a disgrace to thier own country with thier bold faced lies.
I will never ever rent at that place and again, for the 100 time I have learned (I hope) not to believe Thai people when it comes to money.
123 sq meters and ocean view
I and many friends have lived at Center Condo for years (most over 4 years). None would think of moving since the location is perfect. The individual units are also well maintained and spacious. it is true the elevators and halls are not well decorated. But the security is very good. There is also a nice pool. My friend is renting one that is maybe too spacious for some. As Allen mentioned there are several 50 sq. meter units (approximately) for rent. They are nice units and reasonably priced.
However, if you want one of the few large corner units (123 sq. meters)with mountain and ocean views, fully furnished, with marble floors, modern kitchen, 2 bedrooms and 2 baths call AKE at 07-128-8688
