Minimalist rooms for minimal cost

What we say: 3 stars

The Dara Reang Sey boasts rooms with hot water bathrooms and air-con, and is just two blocks from the river, but that's where the good stuff stops. The place has a bit of a reputation for hosting single foreign men in search of companionship. Rooms in the older building, on the south side of Street 118, are small and worn. The singles are suffocating, and for a decent-size room at either location, you'll have to pay extra. Request a room on the north side as they are the same price. If only those on the south are available, look elsewhere. The doubles in the new building are worth the price, with tile floors, a fresh paint job, air-con and cable TV. The titular Miss Dara gets high marks from Travelfish readers for her warmth and hospitality, but some of her staff can be surly. We've also heard reports that air-con and hot water can sometimes go out. For a few more dollars, you can stay on the riverside, though this is a fine alternative if you want to distance yourself (relatively) from the street noise while still being within close walking distance to the action. The food in the adjacent restaurant is overpriced and uninspiring.
