Pich Kiri Guest House
Oldest and the best
What we say: 
Madame Deu is the hostess with the mostess as far as Sen Monorom is concerned. The petit woman speaks English well, and the sons who assist her in running the guesthouse are energetic and eager-to-please. Pich Kiri Guesthouse was the first lodging house to set up in Sen Monorom, and as of mid-2009, with a large, 47-room expansion, it is now by far the largest place to stay in town. She says the customers fueling her growth are mainly long-term NGO workers staying in the area as well as travellers. There's also a restaurant on the grounds that was built in 2008. Rooms are very clean, though the size of the complex and the lack of furniture give them a dormitory-like feel. Each has a TV, cold-water shower and massive, intricately-carved wooden chairs and bureaus -- so heavy the rooms were probably built around them. The twin beds in the double rooms are large enough to easily sleep two comfortably.The bulk of the rooms are in a couple of concrete row houses near the restaurant, but there are also cheaper wooden rooms for those on tight budgets. The restaurant is pretty good and a handy place for meeting others. Motorbikes can be rented here and trekking and elephant riding can also be organised.

Pich Kiri Guesthouse
My wife and I stayed here @ Pich Kiri Guesthouse in Sen Monorom, Cambodia for over a week. We absolutely loved the place, we met so many fun travelers, the rooms were clean and only 5 dollars. The owners were friendly especially Dara (the daughter in law) she worked so hard at making us comfortable, she was just a joy to be around, if you go to Sen monorom, my wife and I highly reccomend Pich Kiri Guesthouse. tell Dara, Carly and Jason says Hey, and ask Dara's husband to break out the rice wine...!

Rooms fine, owner unpleasant, tours unreliable
Everything started off great: the room was fine but I was told the TV didn't work -I didn't care- but they offered to discount $1 and move me to another room with a working TV the next day, which they did. Hardly anyone who was regularly around spoke much, if any, English though. The restuarant food was good value and very tasty and it was here that I started overhearing others complaining: a group set out in the morning for an elephant tour and I heard one say ''The guide knows we are on the overnight tour, doesn't he?'' Oh, yes!'' came the reply. I was somewhat surprised to see them return, incensed, late that afternoon! They had come up from PP for the tour, paid for an overnight tour arranged by Pich Kiri and got a one day tour instead! I was chatting to the resturant man later and he said that he leases the resturant from Pich Kiri and problems like that happen all the time, and, as he is the only one who speaks English, he has to deal with it all as the familiy doesn't care. My own nasty incident came on checking out: I was charged for a hot water room when I'd asked for and stayed in a cold one. I was told brusquely that I'd stayed in a hot water room so $21. I refused to pay and was told over that I'd stayed in a hot water room. Fianlly, I said ''Let's go to the room and check the water shall we?'' to which the price changed to $15. At this point, I jokingly mentioned the one dollar TV discount and was screamed at and told that that had never been said to me! The owner stomped off and the resturant guy apologised! Regarding elephant tours in Sen Monorom, I didn't take one, but several tourists were disappointed by day tour things like the guide leaving you to watch the elephants munching grass while he has a sleep for an hour!
