Why can’t guests access balconies at some ASQ hotels in Thailand?

The conversation revolves around new regulations imposed by some ASQ (Alternative State Quarantine) hotels in Thailand, which restrict access to balconies for guests during their stay. Several users share their experiences regarding this rule, expressing frustrations with late notifications from hotels and questioning the necessity of such measures. Some suggest that the rules might vary between hotels, with some allowing balcony access while others enforce strict compliance. The discussion also touches on the application of ASQ certificates for visa extensions and the perceived over-cautiousness in health protocols.
