You could also take the skytrain to Terminal 21 or to Paragon, MBK etc. and not have to be subjected to the street vendors. The whole purpose of having the BTS access for the SGS/WGS is to allow people convenient access to the rest of the city. It is there, use it.
If you are going to hit the river with the family sure it makes sense to hit the ROS, but if you stayed on Suk. it isn't like painting a picture of child abuse for what you are subjecting them to. So either way would work, but the ROS is more convenient.
The area around SGS and WGS is fine during the day, but at night it gets raunchy wild.
Let's face it , within half a mile perimeter from these 2 properties you have 3 of the biggest sex markets in Bangkok : Nana Plaza, Soi Cowboy and Thermae .
