As we had decided to head to Kanchanaburi for our next destination, a stop over was needed in Bangkok. So after a 7 hour VIP bus journey we arrived at the Southern Bus Terminal and headed towards Sukhumvit Road for an overnight stay.
We arrived late and the room from first impressions seemed adequate for a stop over, no window again, but you can't have everything. After half an hour we did start to detect a rather unpleasant damp smell, which we initially blamed on the a/c, so requested to have a fan instead. To cut a long and unpleasant story short the smell worsened, which meant sleep was not an option and our gag reflexes came into full play.
Strangely enough we checked out at first light, skipping breakfast and headed back to the bus terminal, occasionally being reminded of the smell, as it permeated our skin, clothes, backpacks and our very own soul!!
Only a 2 hour bus ride awaits us to Kanchanaburi, looking forward to getting to the countryside of Thailand.
