Spent 10 days in Patong and I've got to say it was way quieter than I've ever seen it before.
Stayed at C&N - 800 baht per night, good professional staff, great location.
Tried MTB this trip and found the staff really friendly - there's a girl there named Mem who is gorgeous looking, ended up talking to her for ages (not so easy as she doesn't speak English and my Thai is less than perfect).
Felt sorry for anyone who has invested in the bars at Nanai Road end of Soi Sansabai - drove past a few times and the area was totally dead.
Spent the rest of my time in Trang and Nakhon Si Thammarat, went to stay in a Muslim village on a little island ( Koh Sukorn) for the end of Ramadan, very different from Patong!
