The Quay is a small boutique hotel run by the same group as the FCC Hotel. The little hotel is right on the riverside quay in Phnom Penh, which is one of the best areas to stay in if you want to be handy to restaurants and the sights.

I had a standard room for my one night stay. These are the smaller of the two room types available. They're also at the back of the building, so the only windows they have are small translucent panels that let in some light but no view. Despite this, the room didn't fee at all claustrophobic, which was probably due to the open plan and light color scheme. The bathroom was large, although it was a rather odd plan. There was a good sized walk in shower and the bathroom was separated from the sleeping area mainly by a large translucent panel. The room had both wired and wireless internet access for free.
The small hotel has a ground floor restaurant and a roof top lounge. There were several options for breakfast, including many unusual options. I went for something different, a large slab of toasted banana bread with some cream cheese and butter on the side.

Minuses: None, really. Note that standard rooms are in the back, with no view.
