Good luck finding a place at that price- a lot of hotels and apartments have been bought by Chinese. Every week we hear about more people being kicked out of their buildings.

In mid December, ‘17, I’ll be looking for a serviced room in Sihanoukville for a year. I posted about this before, but the post has disappeared!

I was told the landlord wants you to move in Immediately. Is it true? I’m insomniac, I need to be sure the area is quiet. So I like to give the place a ‘trial run’ before committing.

I had a fairly large room before, full size fridge, AC, fan,en suite bathroom, flat screen TV near Sumadera market for $200 monthly. Is that a fair price, if not, how do I find a fair price?

Electric utility- What to do? Demand to see the electric bill? I was paying $20~$25 monthly, but the first month I stayed I used the AC a lot, electric was $180!

Deposit- How to handle that? I paid $400 (2 months) in 3 installments, and when I moved out, there was a lot of song & dance, b.s. etc., and I wound up getting only $30 back. I had the receipts.

Thanks for reading! If you reply, please tell me what you know, not what you *guess*!



How do I manage the deposit so that I’m being treated fairly?
