    A good honest review of the hotel, Ed 👍 Very unusual not to have a fridge, even in a fan room ! I would have thought you could get a similar room close to town ( with a fridge 🤣🤣 ) for about the same price as there are many hotels in Kampot. Great views of the river though 👍👍

    I would give that driver his normal pay and tip, then give him 5 extra usd at least. It looked pitch black out there lol Poor guy- we must laugh and it’s a good travel story once you get back home. It is easy to tip the cute local ladies a little extra. But the local guys are hard working honest men. Try to give a little extra for their efforts.

    Eddie, if you politely ask for the hotel manager, I'm 99% sure he would get someone to get a fridge for you from one of the rooms. Even if you have to pay a few extra Quid. Everything is doable in places like this. I am sure that if you were holed up there for a month or so, you'd have three or four Fridges in your room if you wanted them.

We were stuck in the middle of now whereon a dusty road and a young kid on a bike came past and the Tuk Tuk driver yanked him off the bike and gave him $2 to go and get a bottle of fuel. He kept the bike as collateral for the $2 and the kid ran for a few kms and came back half an hour later with fuel and got his bike (and tips)

Fast forward to later when a tutu I hired ran out of gas in Thailand. We pushed the machine together into a gas station. I paid for the fill up. Back in India, my arm was sore for a week.

It gets dark down that road . Priced a bit high though and breakfast should be included at that price . I stayed at Mama's Guesthouse last week for $10 and it was good value , can use the pool and restaurant on the river almost next door at the Kampot River Resort . I've often considered Villa Vedici now I know what it's like , good video .
