The staff was very nice, friendly, and accommodating. The food options weren’t limited, but delicious. The property looks a bit more tired than pictured, but it was clean and spacious. I would stay here again.
Away from the main road an average hotel but arranged taxi or tuk tuk when needed. Dinner was reasonable.

The hotel was a good deal for the money, but not near downtown. There was AC, but it wasnt able to cool the room below 80 degrees F. Food was good at a fair price. Good budget option.

The hotel is nice and the staff is helpful and friendly. The pool is great although the long chairs are quite old. The only major disappointment was that it is far from the downtown area so we had to order a Tuk Tuk to take us there or walk for about 30 minutes.
This moderate hotel was a good value for the price, especially the huge 2-double bed room. It had the expected amenities: AC, fridge, big bathroom, big open air dining area (much more agreeable in the daytime) and booking service for on-going travel (minivans to Doh Det in Laos.
The only thing I didn’t like was the location, a tuk-tuk ride or hot walk from the older French colonial part of the city on the Mekong River.
The place is a great stay for a couple of days. You can easily go to see the river dolphins from here and enjoy the town.
The service is great. They even offer free Rikshaw drives to town. They also change dollars and help you organise cheap bus tickets to other towns.
The food was great too here and the happy hour ensures you get nice cocktails for very little money.
The pool could be cleaned a bit more frequently and the property in general could do with a little more maintenance but for this price, an amazing place to stay!
With the expectation that you're staying in rural Cambodia this place hits all the marks- big room, working air con, hot powerful shower, clean, working toilet, adequately comfortable bed, good value for money. Very lovely and helpful staff who speak English.
It's a bit of a walk into the main part of town where the bus drops you off and main restaurants and amenities are. Tuk tuks aren't plentiful so be prepared to walk which we didn't mind.
It's a little run down and could use some renovations but overall a good stay.
Our Beds were dirty and we hat mouseshit on them. The tapwater was sometimes brown and smelled. We had no towels and when we asked for some, the said, the runned out of towels, maybe tomorrow. The next day we got st least one towel with big holes. The Pool was the best of the Hotel, it was nice and clean but only 10 sunbeds for many guests.
We eventually found the entrance - through a long lean-to for parking motorbikes.
On arrival, due to being less able, we were placed in a ground floor room -
The bed head had graffiti. Instead of bedside cabinets there was a single shelf between the twin beds that was at an angle such that no glass of water would stay put. The lighting was very poor. The towels had seen better days. The bathroom was very basic with duct tape around the shower tray/wall and dirty. We had to close the curtains as on arrival someone was defecating in the adjoining back yard!
The pool did not look inviting.
The breakfast was ok.
Would we stay again? The answer is a definite NO.
For only 5$ more per night our next travel stop was one created for Kings (absolutely beautiful) - so it was not the price!

Ok for a one night stop, far from bus station and waterfront, people swimming in the pool in full length jeans, hallways and stairwells not cared for, room looked nothing like the photos, over priced for a budget stay
Malgré le prix bas, il est inadmissible que notre chambre soit proposée à un autre client pendant notre absence alors que nos bagages étaient dedans. Aucun contrôle effectué par le personnel présent et le client en question s'est permis de fumer dans la chambre..Heureusement rien n'a disparu
Hotel un poco viejo. Agradable piscina. Personal que habla muy bien ingles, te gestionan autobuses y tuk tuk. Buen desayuno menu por 4$. En el restaurante se cena bien por 5$. Aceptan tarjeta de credito. Esta a las afueras, dificil de encontrar. Mala conexion wifi.
