  • Electricity is the big extra. The places here charge 6–9 ฿ per unit; with air-con every night in the hot season (March–May) that adds up to several thousand baht.
  • Water is usually a flat 100–300 ฿ a month, and Wi-Fi is free in most of these buildings.
  • Moving in usually means paying a deposit of one or two months plus the first month up front.
  • Photograph the room, note the meter readings and keep proof of every payment.
