I stayed there last about 2 years ago and there were so many guesthouses to choose from, and again to suit all budgets. We found a real nice place with AC, cable TV, good restaurants next door. Once you get into the old city walls it's very easy to find accommodation.
I havnt been to KSR since the 90's,they have some cheap accomodation there but most of it is well over priced as you can get a hotel room in the city for the same price!

If I was on my own though I would also stay at KSR its a backpackers mecca in BKK and would find people to travel with no problems.

Den.
