Nice enough place but i saw them spraying fabreeze on people's towels when they checked out and then giving them to new guests so use your own towel!

Nice staff, close to town, cheap, good bar, good common room with selection of DVDs, great place to meet people. Food half decent. They can also arrange Angkor trips and transport. The highlight has to be the lovely pool which is heaven after a day melting at the temples. Ticks all the boxes really!

Good hostel. Clean. Good staff. Very close to pub street. Only issue was thag the bunk beds were a little high and the ladder didn't quite reach the bottom, a slight problem for a short person like me. And disappointed that breakfast wasn't included for the price. But overall, good hostel.

Thanks for the kind words & glad you enjoyed your stay here. I see you score us a little lower for value - we reckon the dorms are the best around for $6 a night, a range of cheap options on the menu & 50c beers from 5-8pm- Value we think! I would encourage reviewers who've enjoyed the Hostel to maybe consider that scoring us anything below our current scoring will lower our ranking & anything above will raise it - after all, why do we chose where we stay as travellers? All the best. ;-)

Great hostel. Nice clean dorm. The a/c could have been a bit more efficient but not a major problem. Good for meeting new people. Had an oil massage there which was great after an exhausting two days walking around the temples!

Beds were firm, but not uncomfortable if you like that. Best value of any hostel I've stayed at so far. Bar and pool are really good, a/c works great, and the food was right on every time. I'd definitely stay again

Ordered food at the bar downstairs - they forgot my order so after 30 minutes I asked and they replied they had forgotten about it. Then 25 minutes after that they had forgotten again. No discount on my order. Also ordered a manicure and all they did was painted my nails clear. Manager is good but wouldnt go to again.

Not sure what happened here except the kitchen was falt out with one of the busiest days we've had this year - and were short staffed due to illness. I did ask for your meal to be hurried out to you but was dealing with another matter and couldn't follow up. Very sorry about that - this is not a common experience here -generally food is brought to you in 5-10 mins. Re the manicure - we are currently reviewing services as a result of your comments. All the Best

We loved this place, it has a nice bar, a pretty sweet pool, the rooms were amazing (6 dorm bed, with big and clean bathroom) and the staff is genuinely nice and very helpful. The Aussie owner told us what to do and what to see during our limited stay and (this is why I rated 100%) informed us about all the scams and rip-offs in the region. Best hostel to stay here. ADD: if you're travelling from BKK, do the trip yourself, google "travelfish bangkok to siem reap". Avoid the scam!

I really relly liked my stay at the Siem Reap Hostel. The pool was great for cooling off after the temples, the staff was very friendly and helpful and the food pretty good. Our tuk tuk driver for two days (Voy ?) was incredibly friendly!!

Problems with the AC that never got resolved, hard as the staff tried (which, to their credit, was really hard). Shelves in the shower wouldn't be unappreciated. Staff is so lovely. Pool is amazing. Great value.

I had a really nice stay here. The staff were really nice and helpful with booking buses and tours. The bar (with $0.50 happy hour beer!) and food were really good. And it was great that they had a nice pool when I came back from all the temples or walking around in the heat.

HI there and thanks for the kind words. Keep the great scores coming. Please! These scores help us run the Hostel at the very best level for guests and continue our community support initiatives. At present Hostelworld has a few issues leaving us unable to access some reviews for answering. To the comments of a reviewer on 29/4: The A/C wasn't quite as cold as it could have been but is fixed now, plus we have reconditioned another unit as a spare.

Friendly, efficient staff. Clean, spacious dorms and bathrooms. Great location, 5min walk to Pub St. I would stay here again!
