Came for nightlife, left disappointed, bars close early and most places cater to students. Not a party city.

Liked the slow pace, markets are alive at dawn, but public transport is sparse so plan rides. Good for a relaxed weekend.

Eat at the student canteens near the university after 6pm, full meals for 30-50 THB. Avoid the central market stalls for cheaper real flavors.

Quiet town with friendly people, street food is great, 2 days enough unless you like temples, hot afternoons but pleasant evenings.

Weather was brutal in April, bring sun protection. University vibe keeps things cheap, food is great if you avoid tourist spots.
