In the course of doing a bit of research I discovered that there is a hotel in Pattaya called Shagwell Mansions.
I just thought you would like to know.

Pattaya isn't in Phuket but in the Gulf, not far from Bangkok. I've never been there but I read somewhere that it is trying to shed its reputation as the sex caital of Thailand.

It appears to me that most Thai coastal places + Bangkok of course offer 'anything goes' sex. I find it too sleazy for words...smelly too...plus ugly men.

I was kidding actually... The seafood isn't that good, at least not if you are aiming not to lose an arm and a leg.
The beach is lousy. The go cart course just before reaching the town is the best thing it has.

I have never been, although I have read that part of it has been upgraded and cleaned up in recent years, as the locals finally understood that not everybody is looking for the same thing.

They got a new police chief a couple of months ago. He was transferred there from Bangkok I think and didn't owe anybody in Pattaya anything. So he's cleaning up now.

Perhaps he has a special sponge for cleaning the hookers.
