On the flip side I moved premises and it took googles literally YEARS to accept our new location details. Annoying they also then moved it so some other random ( incorrect) address and it took us another load of months to get it shifted again "as I couldn't offer evidence of being located at the wrong address " - which of course was the whole issue in the first place !! So, yeah google maps, very hit and miss and I certainly never reply on ONLY their "opening hours' advice if specifically travelling somewhere because of that.

It's very hit and miss.
I very easily managed to move the Cupidol location from the previous site to Boyztown and managed to do some similar tidying up in the area.
They also quickly marked a coffee shop as closed in Hua Hin, after I sent a photo of it deserted.
I've even added some businesses.
On the other hand:
I totally failed to get "Classic Boy Bar" removed from the map in Pattaya.
I visited Bago in Myanmar and the Google coffee shop suggestions were shacks with no sign of a coffee machine. I tried to add the only 2 coffee shops I could find, with supporting pictures and it didn't work.
If Google had some proper algorithms for recognising genuine edits with GPS tagged pictures on an Android devices, they would have much more up to date maps.
(Slightly off topic, I widened my driveway a few years ago. I'd like to claim that was done before the building regulations changed to include such things, but Google maps has a dated street view photo that disproves this)

Once again, thanks.....even if it's a little unkind to show us what we cannot have! Interesting to note how Nice Boys has changed over the years.
By the way, the Mamasan in the Power Boys photo is "Joe", formerly a waiter at Throb, who has the distinction of playing an important part when I first met my Beloved . For that reason, he'll always have a place in my heart.

Time flows fast :)
10 years ago I just for fun made website for YaYa bar in Sunee, as I did for some other gay places in Pattaya and Bangkok. YaYa bar is gone, Ya and Barry are out of Thailand long time, even some boys are died already. But site still shows how it was at 2011.
Enjoy

Yaya bar used to be one of my favourite bars. Knew most off those staff and also Ya.
Don’t wish to be morbid but which ones have passed away?
