OTS is our specialist, but I don't think either of us value a pool or gym that much. I try to move around to check out other properties. Most recently I stayed on Soi 2 at Aspen suites which has a small pool but not much privacy. They have a shuttle that takes you to Sukhumvit. Aspen is good for longer stays with a kitchenette and big refrigerator.
I also also stayed next door at the i Check Inn Ploenchit. I liked the room there better than i Check Inn on Soi 7/1. I find that hotel to be the best value for location if your a CIB regular. Maxim Inn has raised in price over the last two years. It used to be in the 30 AUD a night range and now the same room is in the 40 AUD range.
As for pools and gyms I guess you would have to look to pay more and stay at JW Marriot which is ladyboy friendly. Great reviews in this section on it. If you can deal with being further away on Soi 11 Lefenix is around 45 to 50 AUD and has a gym and a pool.
