Nope. I've heard many good things though.

Have you? I know aussies love it there..

Yeah I've been there quite a few times. Usually we use it as a stopping point if our flight came through Bangkok before heading to Koh Samui. A week might be a long time to be there though as it's an actual city as opposed to the more beachy, partying type places but it's close enough to Patong for it not to really matter much.

If you get bored though you can always head to Koh Pha-Ngan for a night or two. That's where Mushie Mountain is and the full moon parties. Place is crazy. I think it was something like $10 for a mushie shake but they have all sorts of other things on the menu if you want something stronger.
 
Cambodia is an interesting place. Shooting a person would be fun. http://blog.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/johnnynomad/latin_america/1157459340/tpod.html

"only in Cambodia where it costs $200 to buy and shoot the cow with the rocket launcher."

"What's quite fucked up is that there's a few places where you can pay to shoot people. You pay them the $500 asking price, they go an abduct someone from the streets (usually a prostitute) and line them up to be shot by your hand. Crazy fucking country."

"When I pointed out that it's pretty immoral to kill someone, he replied "it ok, she has aids, she die anyway!" with a huge grin on his face, as if that makes it ok"

"When I came downstairs this morning, I was greeted with the sight of a guy plucking a bunch of chickens and ripping out their guts with brutal efficiency. That was pretty awesome to watch as I sipped on my coffee. By the time I finished my first cup, the guy had a row of featherless, gutless chickens sitting all in a row in front of him. "

"Cambodia is FUCKED UP. A huge percentage of their population was wiped out under Pol Pot's regime, and they've never recovered. Land mines have really fucked them over. If you go there, you see amputees on every street corner. You'll see more people missing limbs in one hour in Phnom Penh than you will in ten years in most other countries."
