    Back in the day, the Charoen Hotel used to be a nice place to stay a couple times a month for years. Very good restaurant open early morning to late evening, and then the Yellowbird Lounge. Based on contemporary photos of the interior, it looks like they've maintained it well. Staff was always great. Very close to your train station (about 600 meters). Get a deluxe room or the grand suite. Live a little. Or get a cheaper economy room. Have room safes and lifts to all floors. The Banbua Grand Udon was also nice. Perhaps a few baht more.

I have a zip less samsonite case which I keep all my valuables in, you would need a chainsaw to get into it, been using it for years and never had a problem 🙏😊🇬🇧

    I take it Udon is different from Udorn?
    There used to be an American airbase in Udorn during the war in Vietnam.
    Thailand tried remaining neutral and was pretty successful.
    I met a guy in Japan 50 years ago who had a bar in Udorn with his Thai wife.
    He apparently had gone AWOL and was brought back to be - prosecuted before returning to Udorn.
    I often wonder what happened to him.
    He knew what he wanted out of life which isn’t usually the case with young men.
