I am thinking of staying at Babylon for a few days when I arrive and I noticed the room rates have gone up. They are high enough to make me wonder if the average Thai guy would waste so much baht to rent a room there to meet foreigners?
I am 60% sure that I will take the risk and stay there for 3 nights, but I will change my mind if it has become too expensive for the average Thai and is now home to Non-Thai travelers.
The last time I stayed at Babylon, I met a group of Thai guys who shared a room. They said they lived 2 hours outside of BKK and would rent a room for the weekend for fun once a month. Maybe guys are doing more of that to meet the rate increase?
I would appreciate any knowledgeable input.
