I hear that in some places at SNV they have Trivia Nights. And at Victory Hill they have Spelling Bees.

thats correct i usually stay at the same places so i dont even need my passport i can leave it locked up at home,Anchor Moy wrote: ↑Tue Jun 20, 2017 4:34 pmPhotocopy of your passport. A lot of small or mid-range places ask you to pay the first night on arrival, and then generally you pay as you go, every couple of days or once a week, or even when you leave.hanno wrote: ↑Tue Jun 20, 2017 2:04 pmBut I do guess you have to leave some sort of guarantee?Jamie_Lambo wrote: ↑Tue Jun 20, 2017 12:50 pmwhy pre pay for a room anywhere? do people actually do that?
i nearly always pay when i leave
If you have a regular place to stay, then they know you, so you don't even need a passport or ID - this is Jamie's case I suppose. There is a lot more trust than some people seem to think - everyone is not out to rip you off - and that goes both ways.
Guesthouses, you usually pay when you leave, but they will have your passport copied. Mind you, that doesn't stop some people obviously.
why pre pay for a room anywhere?
During holiday season, or because you want a particular room kept for you, or because you can negotiate a discount for cash upfront are good reasons to prepay. But paying for a room in advance sight unseen can lead to bad surprises. Why should they make an effort since you've already paid ?
and usually book via email to get a decent rate, and because i dont often know how long i actually want to stay they just book my room and keep it reserved until i leave no problems
but yeah that was my point in your last bit, meaning pre paying for your room before youve even turned up,
no matter what country im in, when im booking a room on Booking.com,
i always go for the rooms that say "Free cancellation, Pay when you stay",
if i was staying anywhere for more than a few days, id check the room out first before paying if they wanted me to pay up front

Re: Snookie Sucks... so far
You're a bit out of date, they burn through Shv city and head to Otres, then go out to Sanloem. I went to this STA meeting, out of nosiness and partly from being mislead, a couple of months ago. Anyhow I spoke to the guy who manages Speed Ferry Cambodia, and he said Sanloem was where double his Koh Rong traffic now went. Occheuteal pier in the high season was almost totally Sanloem boats, you had to get the bus for the Koh Rong boat. It was certainly noticeable in Koh Tuich village this year, the main one on Koh Rong this is, NYE and KNYE the last couple of years were manic with back-packers and the village was busy until July. Not this year, very few turning up all season, used to be a load of Westerners working on the island throughout the year, not this year. The Koh Rong boat now does three other beaches further up the coast, Coconut beach looks quite plush and the bit on, is it lonely beach, the one just up from the village over the river, is now fully developed. And Sok San is growing, too. But overall they're now giving Koh Rong a miss.frank lee bent wrote: ↑Wed Jun 21, 2017 12:24 pm most people under 30 probably stay one night at occheteual somewhere like the Big Easy and then go to Koh Rong.
