Review

The unit is extremely compact (around 21 sqm), basically a shoebox. It is fine for one person who is never home, but if you work from home all day, you might get claustrophobia.

Since the building is literally on the main Sukhumvit road and next to the BTS station, it is never quiet. You can hear the skytrain announcements and traffic rumble if your window faces the front.

The built-in furniture is smart; the stove and hood work well. The washing machine is usually on the balcony, which is standard here, but clothes dry very fast in the heat.

Thailand is tropical, so ants are a constant battle if you leave any food out. I haven't seen cockroaches in the room, but you have to be super strict with crumbs.

The location is the killer feature — 0 meters to BTS On Nut. You also have a MaxValu supermarket downstairs open 24/7, which is incredibly convenient for late-night snacks.

The lobby and pool area are kept clean despite the insane amount of people passing through. The management team (Juristic) is professional and handles packages well.

It feels like the United Nations. Lots of young expats, teachers, and tourists. It’s very transient, so don’t expect to make lifelong friends with neighbors in the elevator.

You pay government rates for electricity (unlike in apartments), which saves a lot of money on AC. Internet providers (True or AIS) are easy to install and super fast.

On Nut is the best value-for-money area for expats. You have a huge Lotus’s supermarket across the street, a cinema, and a night market with cheap street food.

Unbeatable connectivity. You are right at the BTS stairs. Motorbike taxis are everywhere if you need to go deeper into the side streets (Sois).

Sukhumvit Road is a parking lot during rush hour. Taking a taxi anywhere between 5 PM and 8 PM is a suicide mission; stick to the train

On the main road, it’s fine. But if you walk deep into Soi 81 at night, there are packs of soi dogs. They are usually chill, but it can be intimidating if you aren't used to it.
