Did you end up getting an apartment? If not, where did you end up staying? Have you got any advice/tips from the time you were over there? Most importantly, did you have a good time?!! Many thanks in advance, Lexi  our_planet_rocks Jonny Lewington Post Count: 5 Msg: #3 677 days ago, August 26th 2007 | I would suggest staying in lakeside or nearby - its probably the friendliest / cheapest backpacker area. If your going for a guest house, try sister no. 9 as its cheap, clean and offers discounts if your staying for a while. If you really want an apartent I suggest asking your NGO to find one for you before you arrive. | my only other tip - the last friday of every month is a major party at 'elsewhere' - it'll probably be in you first week and its absolutely awesome...

I had a terrific time in an amazing city. As for accommodations, I ended up staying at the NGO office but many of my colleagues were able to secure short term apartment rentals (i.e. 2- 3 months). The only drawback is that they were rather large apartments and it makes more sense to split it between a number of roommates. I think the going price is around $150 per month per room + electricity/garbage removal in a safe neighbourhood. Lexi, if you are interested, a friend of mine (male\French) has an awesome 3 bed-room apartment with a large roof-top terrace near Manivong and Sihanouk Blvd. and is looking for a roommate. I'll be more than happy to put you in touch with him. Stan Number of Users: 3 | Number of Posts: 4 | ||||||||||||
