I have stayed there. It is clean, comfortable and central. I sometimes feel a bit closed in especially around the pool. That's why I prefer the PP Villa because of the size of the pool and the open spaces. Having said all that I think you will be happy with Jed Pee.

I have never had a problem with the tailors. Look scruffy, unshaven and head bowed as you walk past and you can see them thinking "poor bastard, he wouldn't have a brass razoo. I don't want him in my shop" They don't even acknowledge you . . . Has worked a treat . . .

Australian Rules football was started around 150 years ago by cricketers trying to keep fit in the winter months. That is why it is played on an oval shape ground.

I don't think it is a big problem . . . because in approx. 5 years time he will be going and doing what he wants wherever he wants, so don't expect him to stay around Hua Hin or even Thailand for that matter . . . . . .
