Sleeping
Siem Reap now has more hotels and guesthouses than temples and that means there are
hundreds to choose from, from simple shacks with shared toilets to sumptuous six-star
suites.
Many places offer free pick-up from the airport, port or bus station: email or call ahead.
Commission scams abound in Siem Reap so keep your antennae up.
