    Room was quite cramped and a little tired. Walk through dorm to get to room.

    On the front of the bay near all restaurants.. Nice balcony to sit and soak up the action at the pier. Food and coffee great.

    Although this is a small seaside village it's surprisingly noisy in the evening! Each bar has it's own competing sound system resulting in a bit of a cacophony. Bring earplugs!

    Great spot on the seafront. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The bungalows are set back from the main building a minute or so up the tiny main street. Bungalow very comfortable and spotlessly clean.

    The dormitory room is the entry way to the other room in the hostel, so it can be very noisy in the morning. A lot of mosquitos and the mosquito nets had a lot of holes. My mosquito net had blood on it (bed 2) 😟

    Great location- located directly on the beach close to the landing pier, hostel staff is friendly, very cheap, the balcony is great for relaxing

    I stayed in the shared place, while booking didn’t realise that people in private room will also need to go through the area you sleep at. There’s also no door where you enter so you’re quite exposed. There’s a lot of construction going on around and they start at 7am.

    It’s by the pier where you arrive so no jeed to walk long with bags, the staff was also super nice! Free water refill

    Room needs some basic maintenance. Broken toilet seat and curtains. To have use of the air-conditioning was going to cost an extra 20 dollars a night, so made do with the fan

    Location is good with a lovely view from the communal balcony. Nice food at the restaurant.

    there is no privacy and if the person in the bed opposite to yours decide to keep their bed lamp on until midnight the room will be bright. the room can be hot, thankfully we had a refreshing storm every night.

    I liked that the beds are all on the same floor so it feels very comfortable not having to get into a bunk bed or having something above your head - never seen this before but loved it, felt like at home or at a sleep over. there is a nice common balcony to chill and the staff is helpful and friendly and speaks good english. the food is great too

    Our room was a bit small and very hot. The one fan wasn't always enough and there is no mirror in the bathroom just that you know

    We lovved the location, it was right at the pier and everything was good reachable (as it is so small and you need a boat to go to the other beach which is 5$ pp and way). We ate every evening there, staff was friendly.

    the double rooms are tiny, but have everything you need. would feel too small for 2 people but just fine for me alone.

    great location right on then beach as you get of the ferry pier. full service restaurant on site. good value for the island.

    Private room was next to the shared dorm, fans were terrible (we had to take an extra from the dorm as no one was in there), windows didn’t have nets so couldn’t even open windows. Moved from first room as bathroom stank of vomit, 2nd room was about half the size. Room was not cleaned in 4 nights we were there so I was sweeping the floor myself. Barely slept due to the fan issue, staff were friendly enough though. No clue where the bungalows are

    The accommodation lost power on multiple occasions so we had no fan in our room to use. This meant it was unbearably hot. The bed was very uncomfortable and only had 2 thin sheets for us to use which were covered in stains. The shower only provided cold water but this was quite nice due to the room being so hot. Wouldn’t recommend

    Actually it was exactly what I needed, cannot tell what I did not like, all was good!

    The rooms are either new or very well maintained. Everything was super clean (clean room, healthy airconditioner etc.) and the staff were super friendly! The location is right in the center, but still it is calm! Restaurant and bar open early and stay open till late, which is nice, since the atmosphere at the beachbar wants you to stick around for a couple more hours. Honestly, one of my best stays in Cambodia!
