I picked the most wonderful hotel, the River Ping Guesthouse. It was a very old teak (native wood of Thailand). They only have 6 rooms and it turned out that we were the only people who stayed there all the days that we did, which was sad but nice. It also had the highest rated restaurant in Chaing Mai (tell me I know what battles to fight) and it still cost NOTHING..... you can't spend money if you try!!!
We went into town, with umbrellas up the keep the HEAT away. We went into the Walled portion of Chaing Mai and saw a Wat, dying in the heat, we accepted a air conditioned taxi for the rest or the day from a really nice Thai man for like 10 dollars. We like the air conditioning so much we hired him for the next day for seeing some things outside the city.
That night we ate at the restaurant at the hotel, the best one in Chaing Mai (remember) it was wonderful and the staff was too. They even brought us mosquito coils while we were playing cards looking at the river.
