With so many apartment buildings in Bangkok I am wondering if any kind souls would be willing to share any great places they have found over the years.

I am looking for something near a BTS/MRT station, excellent internet connection, and quiet.

Price Range, 10-20k per month.

Thanks for any input,

Well at that price range and serviced, look at Victory Monument, VP Tower look at about 13k dependent on room size and how long you stay, they also can offer a wifi service at about 1500 a month if I remember, they do have a web page, google it and Im sure it will come up

Is there anywhere with "excellent internet connection" here in Bangkok, Thailand??

It sucks everywhere even in the hi-so places.

I think both VP tower and the Victory are dumps.
VP Tower; bad cleaning, bad airco, bad laundry, bad maintenance and low quality bathrooms, lots of people mid length stay who made a lot of noise the mangement wasnt inclined to do anything about, sordid atmosphere, gets rundown; buiding in a quiet soi though, but 13500 + utilities quite overpriced.
Victory looked at a few rooms, aaaargh.

I stayed at the Victory for a month in June.
It's not a dump. Not unless you are used to staying at the Oriental. The rooms were okay as well as the bathrooom. Very conveniently located near the BTS.
As for price not sure you will get something there for 20,000 but definately worth a look.
One thing to watch out for; i had a studio and got a bill for 6,000 bht for electricity!!

Man, I live in a 2BR now for 14000, electricity and water 2000,
300 m from MRT station Lumpini.
6000 hb electricity for one room is enough to
not recommend this place. And the rooms they showed me were pretty ugly.

Start at Ekkamai and work your way along to On Nut, theres probably 100 new buildings around there and i'd imagine there struggling to fill them..
