Phnom Penh Pool Hotel 24 USD M Residence
Property in good location, apartment was a little tired, didn’t quite live up to the photos online, swimming pool was the highlight, never been to a pool like it. Front desk staff could have been a little more helpful.

Chaiya Palace Hotel
Staff were very kind, restaurant food was reasonably priced and delicious, rooftop pool and seating are lovely and offer great views of the city. Room was very clean and spacious. Easy to get around everywhere via Tuktuk but not a ton to do within reasonable walking distance.
