Is it a good time to visit Thailand given recent restrictions on hotels and amenities?

@Jon **********

my phone is locked to my network in the U.K.. Cost, 8000 baht to get unlocked as it’s the new IPhone 13 and on O2 network. Made more sense to just buy a pocket wifi that comes with a Thai SIM card.

submit again, they mess up sometimes. Otherwise you can call this number:
