Earlier this year Citi had a special going on where they gave you $50 off every hotel night stay, so I booked about 40 nights with that. Most places were just slightly over the $50, so that was about 40 nights that were damn near free.

Even $20 goes far in Cambodia. In Siem Reap we stayed at a place for that with a pool and breakfast.

I typically book through hotels.com these days. They have started doing the whole VIP thing that Expedia has been doing, and it's usually the going rate, plus you get free upgrades, etc. And you still get 10 stays = a free night of equal value. And an extra 2ish % back as cash if you visit ebates.com first, which is a shopping portal that shares their affiliate money with their customers.

We stayed at a resort for about $50 in Siem Reap, and because it was a VIP hotel, we got a free upgrade and a bottle of champagne. I was still probably most impressed with the top notch breakfast buffet with bacon, lol.
Hey Mack,

If your staying over 10-15 nites, isn't it more cost effective to get an apartment? if you can get an apartment for 250- 300 per month for 1 or 2 months --- you get privacy, your own space etc..
just seems like to pay 20 bucks for over 10 nites, you can get an apartment for a month
Can you get an apartment for only 2 weeks? I thought the minimum was at least 1 month.
I think your right but so what.. .if your paying 20 bucks a nite and staying 2 weeks-- thats 280.... if you get an apartment and pay 250-300 .. u stay 2 weeks and i guess u lose out on the other 2 weeks but u still save money and have privacy,,and ur own space etc
and would have a bigger space as well

Ok I understand the logical but...

you are right, it does work out cheaper, SHV used to be easy for doing that, things like AirBnB do weekly/monthly discounts too (never used airbnb though tbh)
you just need to find places that allow month by month leases with only one month deposit, not so easy to find now i dont think

Hi Jamie, do you have tips/recommendations for Sihanoukville? You seems to know SHV very well.
I've been there 1 week last years, used booking site.

You're not that much of a baller.

It was $50 off any two night stay and you booked a bunch of successive 2 night stays at hotels that cost $26 a night.

Haha, that sounds right!

I posted about it here, I just forgot the details:

general-chatter/free-hotel-stays-two-ni ... 19464.html

I remember now that you told me about that promotion, and by the time I realized you could book unlimited 2-night stays for free, it was already getting late, and I stayed up until around 3AM trying to book an entire summer vacation, LoL.

Citi is lucky that I didn't figure it out until the last few hours, otherwise I would have booked rooms all over the place for a year straight. I even managed to book a couple reservations for other people with that promo.

If they run it again I'm pretty sure it will actually have a long list of terms & conditions.

Recently I had two nights stay Phnom Penh 4* hotel's. The VMANSION boutique hotel deluxe room with full breakfast.
Then two more nights at the High Sky Hotel with full breakfast.
Both hotel stays l used the air miles from the flight over, so nothing more to pay.
In recent years I have stayed in some right dives in Asia, you know what it's not worth it.
