Quick question for the Cambodia regulars — has anything changed in the last few months?
I was there last year and had a great time but I've heard new venues have opened.
Worth going back or should I try somewhere new?
Cheers

Adding my experience from last month.
The scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: better quality overall.

Not sure I agree about that area. I found a different part to be better value.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the pandemic. Current prices are about the same than what's described here.

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

I'd also recommend downloading Google Translate before you go. Essential.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try using a different site next time.
