Why go to Ekkamai ? They have buses from BKK directly to Pattaya and Jomtien every 2 hrs and they drop you at your hotel - 250B (https://www.belltravelservice.com/pa...dTransfer.aspx).
Yeah, I've thought about trying one of the direct busses. If heading to Pattaya mid-day, I'm usually in no rush and may stop somewhere for lunch on the way to Ekkamai.
