I stay there sometimes, and I get CDs there, cheap books. Many good places to eat, including food carts. I like to watch the people. They have a Burger King at one end, and you are near many tourist sites, and the lovely River Taxi.

Always jam packed at nite. Full of tourists with many street vendors selling local foods (padthai, springroll), local souvenirs, tshirts, etc. Plus unusual things like fake ID card and exotic fried insects.

There is probably no place in Bangkok less representative of what Thailand is all about. It is filled with backpackers sitting around talking with other backpackers and surrounded by vultures wait to prey upon the innocent.
