The swimming pool is awesome to chill!

The swimming pool was the best! Large and there were many places to relax around the pool. The Hostel was very relaxed with good decoration with beach inspiration, very good to chill.

Nothing to complain about, chill hostel.

Overall it was fine. The sand from the "makeshift" beach outside does get into the rooms because everyone walks around barefoot, the hot showers are around the corner behind the pool, reception service is pretty slow since they're a new hostel. However, if you're a little patient and flexible, this place has a great social and chill vibe. Close enough to Pub Street but not so close that it's loud, even the hostel's music gets turned down about midnight. All in all, would stay here again.

run down hostel, with good vibe

The dorms are very packed. During my stay the toilete in our 20bed room was also broken. The staff tried to fix it 9am in the morning while shouting at each other. A/C only runs at night. The staff at the reception was quite slow/unorganised but mostly friendly. The best thing about the hostel was the good vibe. For the same price you can get much better places to stay in Siam Reap.

Great hostel, friendly staff

Very nice and chill place, popular among backpackers. Staff is great, really helpful and hospitable. They help you with everything and give you great advices. Only downside is that pool water isn't that clean and sand easily get to the room from the pool. AC is on during the evening and night. Overall, I'd stay here again.

Cheap hostel near night market

Hostel is a little hidden but location is ok. I really liked the pool and the service, if you can pay AC. Bring lnsect repelent and please call the hostel so they can send a tuk tuk to pick you from the airport, I got scammed by not doing that.

Very nice hostel close to night markets

You can’t expect a lot when you’re paying little but this one is an excelent option. After a day of visiting temples in the heat of Cambodia having a pool is very good. If you can pay for AC and bring insect repelent.
