When you know nothing about the place you go, usually you search web for all information you might need. Unfortunately, your own experience might be different from everything you're read before.
I've chosen Centerplace Guesthouse Chiang Mai for their daily and monthly rates, from 200 baht/night or 3500/month. However, after a brief examination, I've decided to look for something else. WiFi is 50 baht/day or 350/month extra, renovated rooms are fine, but cheapest one is old, gloomy and very small.
Next stop - Le Bateau Ivre. On my request I was told that room rates start at 290, but it turned out they had only one cheapest room, and by my arrival it had been occupied. Moreover, this room didn't have a private bathroom. And it seemed to me that most of their rooms shared bathrooms, although I'm not sure.
I've checked about 20 guesthouses, cheapest price - 180 with shared bathroom, 200 with private.
Same Same Guesthouse is a backpackers paradise. I had a feeling that it was exactly the same room as Leo DiCaprio had in The Beach movie)) From 200bht with fan; WiFi is only in the restaurant.
Chada House became a stopover for me. My room was big, furnished with a wardrobe and a bed side table. The price was only 200 baht with free WiFi working very well. The owners are really nice, the place is reasonably clean (if you're not too picky), and there's a really cheap place to eat nearby. Minuses - rooster start yelling at 6am, so forget about late sleep; my window was 1 meter away from another building, so i could hear my neighbors scratching themselves))
The lattest - Kristi House, 14/2, soi 5, Ratchadamnoen rd., (053) 418 165
This is the place i loved most. Probably because of my lovely spacious room with a magical view)) 250 per night including a small fridge, mirror table, TV with many channels in English, 2 fans and wide comfortable bed))
