While I understand the frustration of not being able to get an easy "yes" or "no" answer to your question, I hate to say it, but there will always be mixed opinions.
Your question may be simple, but I think the way the question is posed is too simplistic to obtain an answer that is to your satisfaction.
Maybe you can provide the growing conditions in which you would like to grow your Phals, and you'll get a better answer. Then based off of the answers you get you may see just how much of an easy or difficult time you'll have in growing them.
To get a much better response to your question about whether Phals are easy to grow, please do mention what kind of potting media the Phal you purchased was in, and how you were growing it prior to its demise.
There are 2 general aspects of growing a Phal, (or any other orchid for that matter), that you must take into cosideration:
1. A species Phal's habitat. Once you understand this, you get the framework for what makes your Phal hybrid tick. As an analogy, consider this the "constant" in the equation.
2. Horticultural practices. As an analogy, consider this the "variable" in the equation.
