Yea right...buy the book and apply a coupon to some obscure date at a hotel that most likely won't honor it. Remember if it's to good to be true.......
It's not like it's .50 cents of a hamburger coupon...why would some company apply a $200.00 credit to your card based on a $70.00 bill. Come on!
Scam...scam...

The voice of knowledge ....
The guy who runs the site has a history of identifying good deals, he probably get a commission if you you go through his links but hey, he's identified the deal - YOU on the otherhand have done nothing to prove it's bogus.

Sorry to have offended you! However this thing has “stupid people apply” written all over it.

I have done ..... twice 
Although I have now recalled it was £600, still very enjoyable, the onboard chefs were particularly good but I guess you're used to that sort of thing ....

There is also a motto in the UK you may have heard "There is no such thing as a free meal" That is usually true, but there are also bargains to be had.
Why be so sceptical about a BM posting a bargain. Follow it through and it may save a lot of money. No need to bad mouth it if you don't like/agree with it.

well its a pretty good 3 star hotel with a small pol which has a swim up bar....rooms are OK but doubt whether you'd get a bigger upstairs room for that price.....good family style hotel right on Soi Kepsap which is famous for its massages and very close to beach and shops....about 8 minute walk to bangla rd....
they do have overnight guest fees but will generally waive them if you are staying a week or more (have done for me on two stays) and ask politely at the time of booking.....
Think I paid about Bht1200 in low season last tiem I satyed....but that was 3 years ago
