Tuk-tuks at the bus station

The bus pulled in to the central station where there is a large square and a market. Several tuk-tuk drivers were soliciting the white folks for rides to the hotel. The hotels are around the corner and these folks got suckered pretty badly. You don't actually see the hotels on the way into the station, but trust me, there are plenty of accomodation options adjacent to the central bus station and you don't need a tuk-tuk to find them. Save your money.
