Guest reviews
"Perfect if you want real privacy. They say the mattress is hard, but I like it. You have to keep in mind that it depends on each person; they have their own tastes and needs. The owner is friendly and direct. Do you want the place to be central? But the owners are fake."

"Owner is very nice and helpful ,very good place stay in Phnom Penh"
"Important Note! The Phnom Penh airport changed locations in October last year, so this is now about 40 min - 1 hr away from the airport. This is such a wonderful hostel run by truly wonderful people. I was very comfortable in my private room, the bed was so cozy and there was a TV, air conditioning, a mini fridge, small toiletries and a clothing rack. There is so much love and care put into this place and I truly felt like the owners cared about me having a good experience. They even made sure I woke up on time in the morning for my flight! I would stay again if I came back. It's not right in the middle of the city center, but the hospitality makes it so worth it."
