Cost of budget stay cheaper by abt 30% in P n cleaner newer rms.
Food cost slightly higher, 7-11 abt 30% higher necessities n toiletries costs.
Motor taxi worse than trike in conning new tourist, normal charge abt same.
10 baht Songtaew or jeepney must familarise w route for newbie, best use a map.
Massage cheaper by 50% super value 100 baht per hr thai massage.
FLs at beachroad seems quality so much better in weekends 30% i would consider taking, weekdays only 10%. rate 700-1k baht ST is what i gather.
Language really a problem if u wanna converse further than negotiating the deal only handful speak fluent english.
I did some barhop in WS , quite a nos of topless bars w some fake big boobs, Sensations agg impressed me most w quantity abt 80 girls n quality , seems 70% looks ok to me.
I would say generally P W st % of attractive girls in a bar abt 30% more than in AC W st n an important factor is they r more slim n fairer while AC more porkchops n darker.
But the more than 50-100% cost of LT would deter me to frequent barfines as i m not sucker for looks.
One very distinct advantage is u pay bf to the P bar n then the girls' money after the deed which reduces the chances of a runner as in AC where u pay everything upfront to bar.
Soi 6 has older n less % attractive girls than AC perimeter is what i feel on my trip.
The other scattered bars same as Soi 6 but i definitely saw quite a few gems which is usually the one dancing to attract customers.
When i was w my girl in WS n beach rd, several times she waited at a spot n i went to buy some food n drinks from 7-11. When i returned i always saw she was approached by men, some asking her to go barhop w them n one asking to go hotel take pic as he is photographer seeing me quickly asked for her no which she gave a fake.....opportunist aplenty i presumed.
Weather was hotter than AC, wasted that i only went out daytime once on a cloudy day to the beach. Overall a good break from AC , next break will be in Cebu in 3 weeks.

Walking Street is for eye candy and discos...... only newbies will barfine from there
Beach road FL scene has seen better days and is going the way of the DoDo.... I am surprised you still manage to find FLs there.
Soi 6 is the Blow Row of Patts..... cheap and no hassle quickie release.
Soi Buakow is the cheap Charlie's hang about and the bars and AGGs cater mainly to them.
LK Metro is the place seasoned cheongsters go to now.... it is growing and in time to come will be another Walking Street...... so until that happens.... enjoy yourself there.
For the adventurous and AngMoh inclined....... Jomtien is the place to be.
You'll be at home with the mainly AngMo crowd there...... especially the Russkies.
