As a bonus, these properties are an easy walk to 3 of Chiang Mais best and very affordable gyms-Muscular Lair, Go Gym, and Hug Gym. If you are ever in need of a vlog idea, I think a tour of these and other Chiang Mai gyms would be a popular subject. I don’t think any other vloggers have done this, to my knowledge.
That's true, I know 2 of them gyms. Maybe I could do a gym vlog in the future 👌
All good gyms 👍
7:14 spotted a nice squirrel or whatever wee critter it is just jumping off the powerline onto the 4 storey building opposite. Ahhh bless. It's amazing what value those rooms are. Makes me think that making a move there will totally be affordable for £1000 per month or less. Thanks Wayne
Probably a squirrel, they run along the lines all the time. One of the line exploded one day, because of the squirrel, we found him on the floor looking like toast. We had no electric for 2 hours . Yes, it’s still amazing how cheap it is here. Can find some right deals. Thanks mate.
I've been here 6 yrs, for £1k you can live well, if you don't hit the booze and girls you can stay here for about £400 (not including visas) if you are careful and cook at home/ eat budget meals and don't hit the pricey restaurants
Great video Wayne. Always refreshing to see the real Thailand and options available for travellers on a budget. Keep pushing the great content my friend! You have certainly inspired me
Thank you! Much appreciated.
Thank you! please do show more of budget stays. Much appreciated!
Will do!
Awesome budget accommodation there Wayne. Not a problem staying at any of them for those prices. My mate is venturing to Chiang Mai mid next year. I'll encourage him to watch this one. He actually mentioned seeing your video re Depression last week. Nice to see RUclips putting your video on his main home page. That proves that you are getting some exposure which is excellent news. Cheers Wayne 🤩
Nice one mate! This area is great for cheap rooms, so many to look at in these sois also. Not to far from town and the market near Santitham. 👍
A lot of very affordable rooms & hotels and a nice wander - Thanks WW 😃👍✔️👋🙏
Cheers Ant, mate 👍
Thanks for another engaging and informative video, Wayne 👍 The view of the brick stupa from the balcony at the second place was impressive. The room looked ok as well. If they catered for people visiting for a month at a time, I'd certainly consider it as a bit of a change from Nimman.
Great you showed where the soi was in relation to Chuang Puak Road. I knew at once where you were...I'm always grateful to have that pedestrian flyover when the road gets too busy to cross comfortably lol
Nice one Michael. Yes, that road is a bit crazy, so good to have the fy over .
Brilliant Wayne! Great tip you don't find other places. I like these shotgun accommodation videos, and if Thailand opens up for 90day visa on arrival, it might be possible to bounce back between Chiang Mai and Malaysia, and maybe down to Perth for a break from the heat.
Cheers Jack, always options for budget places around.
I was staying on Viangbua Rd just 100 meters south of your walkabout. It is a nice little area. There is Siri Wattana market nearby. A cheap place for local Thai meals. I loved it.
Yep, Siri Wattana and Santitham are not far away. Great area for real basic cheap rooms 👍
Does the Siri have AC?
Really enjoy your videos Wayne, keep them coming 👍
Thank you 🙏
That was a marvelous video! Thank you, Wayne.
Thank you buddy.
Great little area...used to regularly use the Post Office in Changphuak Road then nip up to Tha-Nin market for lunch. Great spot!
Nice! Yep, so easy to get to Thanin from here. Thanks
Enjoying your videos. Plans are underway to spend a year in South east asia
Thanks! That's a great plan, 1 year is enough to get a really good feel for SE Asia.
Hello, I have a condo in the area you were today.. heaps of accomodation in the area... almost impossible to know everywhere but, there are some great bargains and as you said.. very close to the old city.. cheers.
Great! Yes, so many cheap rooms in this area. This is one of the best areas for basic cheap rooms. Thanks
wow such a personable dude showing us noobs the way to stay in chiang mai on a tight budget ,i lived in many places in the us and philippines that were not as good as your showing here ,if you have a roof over your head a small space to cook and sleep and play on your laptop (hows the wifi situation in these places ?)do you need install ur own or is some come with free wifi .
Yes, this place would be ideal for someone on a budget. I think wifi was included with this place. It's pot luck how good the wifi will be though. Thanks.
Awesome info Wayne. Thank you.
Thank you 🙏
I stayed at Gampanggham hotel last week for the first time. About Aud $35 incld breakfast aircon fridge and pool. Great staff. Highly rec.
Nice Phil, not a bad deal mate 👍
I will be there for three weeks in April. Your videos have been helpful. Maybe I will see you out walking.
Thanks buddy, hope to see you around 👍
Thanks for sharing! 25000 for a room? You can rent a fully furnished 1-2 bedroom condo for 6-13000 Bath or a fully furnished 3-4 bedroom house in the outskirt of the city for 15-25000 Bath a month! But that first room was a gem for the price despite the basic standard. I could easily stay there for a 6-12 months just to save up some money for a descent motorbike or small car. Or just to have enough money to travel around and have the room as a home base. There's always an option! 😊
Yep, crazy prices at that hotel. The cheap rooms was a great deal. Thanks
Merry Christmas and have a great New year...
Merry Christmas buddy.
Love your accomadation vlogs,nice content
Thanks Julie 🙏
Yeah, good budget options mate. A room for a month with WiFi and bills for less then my monthly council tax 👍👍 can’t complain with that 😎😎
Yes mate, crazy when you think about It really. Still loads of these cheap places about 👌👌
Nice one Wayne.
First place is an absolute standout. Cant complain for that price.
The second place was an arsh full... then there was the room. 😉
Take it easy
Haha, I was waiting for someone to comment on that 🤣. Cheers mate.
@WalkAboutWayne If it was going to be anyone it was going to be me... the channel Arsh man 🤣
i wish you showed the sign "Good things are coming" before the lady walked up the stairs.🤣😁😇😍 My bad!
🤣🤣🤣
Now now, be nice
Great stuff mate take care.
Thanks David.
Very nice! Great job...
Thanks 👍👍
After doing research this is the area I would want to stay. Maybe somewhat closer to Maya/old town. Would love more videos of this area.
It's a good area, you could move in behind more, closer to Santitham markets and Maya. Loads of great deals in this area.
google translate has camera access :). Chedi House haha.. I love your tours and tips/tricks to finding great places! I can't wait to move!
Nice one, I didn't know that. Google can just about do anything 🤣. Thanks.
Basic is the key word here, Wayne. Folks have to remember that no one does basic better than Thailand. Was half expecting to see the Artful Dodger and Oliver Twist pop out. One thing for sure is that you are not going to live the princely life for three thousand baht a month.
🤣 I wouldn't go that far buddy 🤣 Nice one Lars 👍
Nobody expects to Mate WTF are you talking about. 🤷♂
Watch out for those soi dogs 😂😂😂. Some great prices , except for the hotel. Couldn't fault the second room , glad it had A/ C 🙏
That dog frightened the life out of me 🤣. The Hotel place was way over priced. Thanks
hahaha "sit down and wash your nuts" made me laugh.
🤣🤣🤣
Nice places you found and can well understand the cheap price when i saw near temple hope you have good earplugs...ive lived next to a temple and i consider myself a very heavy sleeper (slept through an earthquake) and yeah 😔it would raise the dead from their slumber....
I live next to temple aswell, for years. Nothing major, few roosters in the morning, but I like that. No problems living next to a temple. Never far from a temple in Chiang Mai. Cheers.
@@WalkAboutWayne ah mine was in Taiwan different traditions i guess as twice a week 6 am extremely loud excruciating pipes music. (think bagpipes but worse)
Did you happen to do a walk around of your current apartment building?
No buddy 👍
First time in Thailand next week Wayne.... not changmai though ... Great vids dude
Thanks buddy! You'll have a great time Peter.
I got a room in Santitham for 2000 a month, I use it every time I visit the city because my house is out in the nature 25 min from the city.
Nice! Yes, I've seen rooms for as low as 1000. It's crazy what you can still find in Thailand.
Nice content 😊
Thank you 😁
I was in Tha-nin market last week, not far from those places.
It's great that you show what value can be had in Chiang Mai.
There used to be a good computer centre on the corner of the super highway near there.
Yes, Thanin is just a stones throw away, could easy get to that area. Cool, not sure if I knew that computer place.
very nice for the price! I like it!
Yes, this is a great deal.
Wayne you know anything about home stays with locals?
Not really mate. Accommodation here is so cheap, no ones ever really talked about home stays. I'm sure there's lots here though.
Nice video. The 3,300 baht place said Chao Sa Chedi ....
Nice one! Thanks 👍
Santitam is close to the tourist spots and it's cheap, I'm surprised that there's no falangs there, maybe there is but when I walked around I didn't see any.
Santitham great, but it's over run. This area a little more Thai 👍
I'm like you, I prefer to be where there's not many farangs, which makes us more of a novelty
Nice!
Thanks!
Good on ya mate.
Cheers John 👍
Ya some of those are quite cheap, maybe around $50-$75 if you speak Thai. No plans on going to Thailand until they go back to 90 days. Don’t think that will happen though until the war ends. They are trying to control the number of budget travelers from Far East Europe.
Yes, you could get them a bit cheaper I reckon. Hope you can come over soon buddy.
Heading back to Thailand soon...Will check it out the area...Thanks
Also do u know if the ones u saw was month to month or contract?
Locations are in the description 👌👌
The most important thing is a decent working AC, not the price of apartment.
That's a good point, always try the AC before renting.
I would really like to find a cheap good room. Can you help me what airport to choose in Thailand from Dubai? I'm relocating asap.
Normally Bangkok buddy. Depends where you want to go inside of Thailand though.
@WalkAboutWayne I'd like to go in Chang Mai is this where Lampang province located ?
Hey Wayne , is there a minimum rental period ? For these places . Are they advertised or must you do walkabout to find them ? Normally visit in June July and would assume lower prices?
The first one I showed was month to month, but things can change at any time. Prices would be even lower at that time, yes. You won't find many of these places listed, just walk around the area and you'll find many. Thanks
Thanks that’s great . I intend to visit next year again and view it from a retirement perspective. I can’t wait until you review the burning 🔥 season . To get perspectives on that .
Still looking at Hua hin and 27km north is Cha Am and Pran Buri to the south . Some good places over there . Would be nice to find somewhere like ilfracombe in north Devon with nice views and tasty treats !
การขอบมากฯ.
Thanks 🙏
I have a nice room, fridge included on the edge of oldtown for e 100😮
6,000 baht
At first I thought it was the deal of the century at 100 Baht 🤣. 6000 sounds good buddy. Not bad at all 👍
How do you support yourself ?
Same way as everyone else buddy 👍
What is the road called Wayne for this cheaper accommodation?
Chediplong Road
@@WalkAboutWayne thank you Wayne have you stayed there before
I have question Sir , I'm gonna back to thailand soon but always I've been in bkk , this time I'm on budget so this kind of price like $80 , $90 is absolutely affordable. Do u think it's easy to find this kind of room if i change my destination from bkk to chiang mai ? I'll be greatful if you advise me on this
Yes, it will be easy if you don’t mind looking outside the city centre. 👍
@@WalkAboutWayne thx 🙏
Won't pay that much for a studio, but I may stay at that hotel one night just so I can sit down and wash my nuts! Maybe soap the seat up and slide around to wash my butt while I'm at it.😅
Sounds good buddy! 🤣
Are you still in Chiang mai?
Most of the time, yes.
I need your help will to give you something for your help
Help with finding a room? Just hit the streets buddy, you'll find many.
You augt to get a sponsor.😮
That would be nice 👍
25000 a month 😱
3000 a month 👍
Stop saying MAN. 😃
No
So cheap
👍👍
Why on earth would a normal person want to stay in that shi7e pit, how can anyone be comfortable in day to day life, they cannot. (1st room).
Someone here on a budget for a month or 2. Jeez loads of people staying in worse than this . I agree the first room is a bit shabby but nothing wrong with the second .
Ah I see you put 1st room. I would agree, I wouldn’t stay there but cheap
@@WalkAboutWayne it's a short-time room where the locals service their mistress lol (you know, you see it all over Thailand), not picking holes, I'm an avid follower of your channel.
@@btkindonesia137 🤣 No mate, these are student rooms and low end budget rooms. People live here . Cheers.
