Have you rented a condo in Bangkok? Was it a good or bad experience? Reddit — Thailandtv.news

Sawadee kap fellow Thai and foreigner Bangkok sub members, hope you are all doing well.
If the mods allow my post, I would really luv to hear your awesome and your nightmare condo and apartment rental experiences within Bangkok.

Have you rented a place in Bangkok for 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or longer? If so, can you post a comment in this format?:

I am currently in a neighbor SE Asian country, but will be coming to Thailand soon and staying until after New Year or longer, and I have been looking online on Renthub site and Thailand Property site and also FB for a basic studio condo that is modern and maintained well in a good and convenient location (near BTS or MRT, malls, restaurants, and nightlife).

Needing something renting for an affordable or even budget rate, since I want to save as much as possible for future travels. This might be between 7k and 12k baht a month.

The problem is that it is very difficult to tell, in that price range, even with reviews and ratings, if a place will actually be comfortable and suit my needs, and not have some hidden defect or problem with the actual room or the management or staff or whatever.

Did anyone else also put a deposit on a place from outside Thailand only to arrive in Thailand and find out the place is not what you thought? I’m trying to avoid this scenario if possible.

Please respect my post. Depending on your level of wealth, you might think I am cheap. But please don’t insult, troll, or call names. I would prefer to save and use my money for other things, as I am ok with minimal and basic apartment as long it’s clean and not scuff or has hostile staff or security or other things that might ruin my stay. Thanks for reading my whole post.
