BKKSTAN,

is the hotel on the map ? i don't see it, if not, you wouldn' happen to know the soi its on ? thx.

nevermindn found it

I just learned that the Huan Li opened a new 6 unit apartment house ,about a month old,4000 baht,2000 deposit,month to month,1 br furnished! One unit still open!

Michael,

Fireballs have been and gone. Nong Khai is back to normal.

i just stayed at huan li and would so again if im in the area.

only at 400baht / night can't beat it. its very clean, good ac, lots of good channels on tv, good hot shower and water pressure,great central location, etc....only "con" was, if you are a lite sleeper might wake up from time to time, but the noise is from the hotel it self and voices in the hall, not from the streets.

thx to all members for some great info making things easier for a noob, now onto UT

Correction:Huan Li new apt is 5000 B per month ,not 4000

If you can't stay at the Nong Khai Grand, I suggest the Charoensri Grand in Udon. Its worth the drive for the cleanliness and comfort.
