Art Guest House & Massage

Popped in for a $6 Khmer massage, which is the cheapest I've paid. Good massage, by a masseause who was obviously trained and experienced. Khmer massages are really different to traditional oil massages- they are not relaxing, but do feel like they're really good for your body/muscles. (Oil massages also offered). I might have thought it was a little weird if I hadn't had one elsewhere, but the standard of the massage was pretty good, and followed exactly the same method of others I've had. This one was particularly good for my super-tight calf muscles, which I suspect she identified and worked on further. For $6, it's a no-frills Cambodian experience. A mattress on the floor, with a slightly stale smelling pillow, and the masseuse didn't speak any English at all (her helpful son does, to get things started). But, for $6, I'm happy with that. Veranda Resort further up the road probably have a great proper spa, but you'll pay through the nose for it. Anything more complicated than lighter/stronger might be worth communicating beforehand with her son. There's none of that laborious 'washing feet in a tub of water' beforehand, so either go in with fairly clean feet, or use the shower in the adjoining room before things start.
