When I went back and looked at TripAdvisor there were lots of tell-tale signs of the bogus posts. Lots of posters with no posting history, lots of East European 'expats' or locals with perfect English. When you go to the instyle store it is up an alley...its virtually impossible for it to come out #1 on tripadvisor without a thread fix.

I don't have any other HKT recommendation to make. I'd recommend BKK if you can get a couple of days there.
Thnaks for sharing your experience.

Unfortunately we don't have a lot of time in BKK this trip, so that is not an option.
