big cheap place in Chiang Mai
great description of what to do on the loop
looks cool, but folks are riding the elephants, is that always bad? not sure
NEEDS TO BE RESEARCHED FOR ELEPHANT ASPECT
rent a car and go here? looks off the tourist trail. i like it.

about 40 a night, looks pretty nice, outside of town
about 25 to 40 a night, top rated, in rice fields outside pai
about 32 a night at high season, outof town a bit
