Quite dark and dingy, but for the price we didn’t mind - until we found bed bugs!! 12 bed dorm by the pool, bunk 9! I got bitten all over my body. Told reception in the morning, we were moved into an 8 bed dorm, and they did my laundry for free, but only because I asked. No sign of bed bugs in the 8 bed dorm, but I still felt itchy and it looked unclean. The en-suite on the right stank so bad of urine, we discovered the liquid on the floor leaked out the base, as you use the toilet.Cockroach t...

It's basically a mediocre restaurant and bar with overpriced food that has dormitories and rooms in the back. The staff are extremely not helpful as well and expect you to just flip through binders of information to answer your own question. Not a social vibe at all.

I was a little bit disappointed with my stay. It didn’t really feel like a hostel to me and wasn't very social. It was a good location though and the staff were friendly. I also did one of the yoga classes which I really enjoyed! The bathrooms were flooding for the first day I was there but the staff prompty fixed the issue. Overall okay experience but probably wouldn't stay again.

Owner and staff do not seemed to be interested in making people feel at home. They do care more about the Restaurant and guests from outside as well as the ones that are booking private rooms. When staying in a dormitory it seems like you are just a tolerated annoying necessity that has no right to feel at home like a hostel is supposed to make you feel. If you consider yourself a real traveler do not stay there. Other places are a lot more welcoming then this place.

Mould in the dorms. It says it’s been refurbished but was really old and worn. The showers would flood every time you used them. Not a clean hostel at all. However we had good scooter rental through them.

pretty average rooms that need a deep clean. bathrooms need cleaning and bedroom floors etc. hostel itself was good with good food and outside of the rooms it’s lovely. not social more of a quiet getaway.

The showers/ bathrooms in the room smelled weird. Towel included! Pool area was nice. Not the most social but I alr had friends there so it was okay.

The outside of the hostel is quite nice; but in dorm 1 there was about 3 cm of standing water that didn’t drain from the en-suite bathrooms (both of them) meaning that if you wanted to shower or use the bathroom you had to wade through dirty bathroom water.

The place is nice, good location, it looks clean and the pool is nice. Would have been even better if there had not been a cockroach under my pillow though. Otherwise no complaints.

We had a lovely time here, so accessible to different tourist attractions. Great facilities, lovely pool, very relaxed vibe. The staff were so kind, I was unwell whilst visiting and they kept checking up on me and making sure I was okay!

Good location, has a nice pool and spacious dorms. Our dorm was advertised to include 2 bathrooms but it’s actually only 2 toilets and one of the toilets has a shower which was fine for us.

Sehr gute Unterkunft in Kampot. Auch wenn sie auf den ersten Blick sehr social wirkt, war sie das aber leider eher weniger. Lage aber wirklich top und bei dem Preis kann man nicht meckern

The staff was super friendly, attentive, and helpful. The room was okay, but the bathrooms weren't very clean. Great location right across from a scooter rental shop and close to downtown. See you

Really loved it here. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Kou he made sure we had everything we needed. Rooms are very simple and showers are pretty much cold. But there are lovely social areas, restaurant with great food, great pool, and very good location. We booked a tour from the reception too so it was just a good experience.

Great value for price. My biggest complaint would be it was still quite hot in the room in spite of there being AC. Also, top beds in dorms have no where for you to place items to keep with you while in bed. Staff were super helpful with all things booking!

Nice hostel, but unfortunately a lot of old people in this hostel, not the best vibe for young traveller
