To beat the notorious traffic jam around Sphan Taksin and Wong Wiang Yai , I arrived there early ( I mean TOO early )
I didn't know what time actually they would open . There is no sign or anything at the door or at the reception .
They actually open at 5PM on weekdays .
I was not the only one who arrived before their openning time .
Unlike other 2 Thonburi saunas , there was no big shopping centres around ( even no coffee shop ) to kill your time .

The promotional door charge of 19 Baths and 50 Satans ( or Satangs whatever it should be spelled ) is NO MORE .
They charge 100 Baths regardless your nationality or age
But if you come with your pal ( s ) , they have special of 139 Bahts for 2 ( 129 ? ) and 159 Bahts for 3 .

They have a daily theme .
Yesterday was , I don't know what it was , but they provide a batik like sarong ( quite sexy ) and a small towel ( Well , nowadays , not many gay saunas in BKK provide FULL SIZE BATH TOWELS , don't they ? )
Due to my limited Thai reading ability , I couldn't understand the differences between the daily themes ( Please ! Help us , ICON ! )
But ONLY I understood is Saturdays are NAKED

*** FACILITIES ***

1st floor = reception , spacious and empty TV launge , toilet and staff room
2nd floor = small store room and a locker room
They have about 210 lockers ! Is this because of their optimistic nature ???
3rd floor = private toilet , basin & shower room , bright gym AND a dark room with glory hole cubicles ( where I saw no one )
4th floor = private toilet , basin & shower room , a very dark private cabins area ( about 11 rooms ) all rooms are different from each other . They have toilet tissues and lube , but NO condom . And also ORZY bunk bed
5th floor ( YES ! They have 5 floors ! Bigger than MALE BOX ) =
a very bright common shower room , a small steam room , a dry sauna room , 2 private toilet ( a bunk bed over them ) AND non-air conditioned large WANK VDO room ( I like this area best in this sauna )
The lighting is quite dark in most areas ( just like MUFFIL )

The clientele ? There were less than 20 customers ( no farang customer ) Age between early 20's to late 30's .
For the most of the customers on that day , it was the first time visit , I guess . They just came to see how the new sauna was like , beside one former COA regular . This is a convenient location for FANTHON residents . It's actually not far from SAM LE
post office .

It became quiet around 7:15PM already . I left before 8PM , as I saw no new customers came in .
They stay for very short time .
If you come after 7PM ( on weekdays ) , probably you will miss all hot actions .
So , WHAT TIME SHOULD WE ARRIVE THERE ?

Thai guy Only in English .
But there is a quite large banner at the pak soi ( and facing the main street ) It is written " EDOK " about 20 times on it . So , you wouldn't miss it .
You can see some smaller flags in their car park (a few blocks down ) , so , ICON can drive and park there .

Actually EDOK is not a right next door of SHAPE , but it's obvious that they are under the same management .

By the way , SHAPE has a quite few massage boys now ( I guess )
Some came to EDOK . Many guys are young twink type , and they are good looking .
