The one night we spent in Phnom Penh, Cambodia was at the Nice Guest House.   It was $10 for the night.  The room was fairly close to the Royal Palace but we did catch a ride instead of walking.

The hotel claims internet, overseas calls, motorcycle, bicycles, laundry service. All rooms have a window and some have a balcony. Cable TV, AC, Fridge, fan, hot shower and private bath.

You can see that the bathroom is a water closet.  The shower head is there between the toilet and the sink.  The toilet paper has a little cover over it so that you can’t get it soaking wet.  Wearing sandals all day your feet get dirty so if you use the toilet after a recent shower you end up with muddy feet and a dirty floor.  You also can see the little white hose next to the toilet.  I didn’t use this - if my bum ever needed a rinsing i just hopped in the shower.  Hot showers, while a luxury usually worth paying for, are probably not too necessary where the ground temperature probably doesn’t dip below 60 and your shower is half to clean yourself and half to cool off and stop sweating.  On-demand hot water heaters (the little box on the wall behind the shower head) were prolific in Vietnam and Cambodia.
