I had forgotten about a swimming pool. That would be an advantage for me.
I'm looking now at another option Vises Patong Hotel apparently its cheap for longer stays and has a pool... Can't seem to find contact details of any kind for it though.
Anyone stay there or know anything about it?

Just the other day I walked around inside the Vises hotel to take a look. The pool is big and looks nice. I was there at 10am and nobody was in the pool. They have a poolside bar but it was not open so early. The place is kind of rundown but they had people cleaning the lobby and the staff were all friendly. I did not see a room but many have balconies facing the pool. I might try it next trip. The only downside was there seemed to be a little bit of riff raff walking around - you know the farang tourist with half empty large bottles of Leo at 10am...those funny rubber clogs...the dazed look. Guess all the BG were still sleeping.
Sorry I didn't take any contact details for the hotel or I'd share it. (one think I remembered is they must sell beer in the lobby or restaurant and the listed prices were basically the same price as 7/11 or maybe 5 baht more - so might be a cheap drinking session at the poolside!)
