The only problem is the place is pretty boring for a big city and has some of the worst weather in the country. Plenty of rain, the odd typhoon and stinking hot when the sun comes out. That said it has some of the best price/quality accommodation to be found anywhere in SEA. Last year I was paying 11 bucks a night for a new, spotless room with cable TV, good wifi, hot water, AC and big comfy bed. Also came with a pretty disgusting breakfast but as I don't get up early enough to eat breakfast I wasn't fussed.

Not a fan of Phuket. I like my beach quiet. In the paper yesterday an English guy was murdered in the centara by a norwegian after asking him to keep the noise down.

Yes, and this won't do anything to help keep hotels quiet.

Vietnam is major shopping and medical tourism place for lower middle class khmer. Less hassle for them than thailand and they get special rates on medical treatment. manycancer patients wind up being treated in nam due to lack of facilities here. Westerners who suffer trauma will go to super expensive thailand, but khmere usually get shipped to nam
