Mon and Kurt's Restaurant and Guesthouse, on Highway 107 have clean, budget rooms for 190 Baht per night. They come with free morning coffee, soap and towel, free internet, UBC TV, fanand a hot shower. They also have clean, Western Style toilets. Nothing bad to say about the place, except maybe for the occasional rooster crowing at night. The food in the restaurant isexcellent and priced from 35 Baht and up. The owners are friendly and many local expats hang out there. Beer is cheap there, too, which is always nice.
