Vanny's Peaceful Guesthouse

Very welcoming and kind guesthouse family. The rooms were decent and spacious.

Friendly staff, free water

AC needs a bit of maintenance

Beautiful family, great location, quiet and secure and great value

Proprios très gentils, des espaces pour se poser. Propreté ok. Emplacement un peu loin du centre mais pour un séjour authentique c'est bien. il est situé dans la périphérie proche près du russian market, lieu de visite possible. Pas de clim et d'aération à part par une petite fenêtre alors il peut faire très chaud en période chaude (avril mai juin principalement) mais si vous ne craignez pas la chaleur avec le ventilo ça le fait.

The equipments advertised were there : fridge in the room, kettle accessible (in commun areas), AC. The bed itself was comfortable.

Our stay didn't start the best way. Since the morning, we were texting them to ask if a late checking would be accepted as we knew we were coming a bit late (between 10 and 11pm). They were only replying with generic texts, without answering our questions. At 9pm they started asking at what time we would come and again, the communication was very hard, probably due to English and language issues. In the end, when we were finally getting there and were only 5 more minutes away, at 10:50pm, they texted to enquire that we book somewhere else (this time in a perfect english ironically). As we were so close and there was nothing else around, we still showed up and called and hopefully they agreed to take us! We were very grateful for that but also had the feeling that this whole thing could have been avoided if they had replied to our request as we asked all day long. For the room itself, we were given a room with very low ceiling that had a very strong smell of humidity, gave the impression of being not clean (you definitely feel many things under your feet if you go barefeet) and had a door that was not going all the way to the top nor to the bottom. The automatic light in the corridor was even turning on when we were moving in the bed because the sensor could detect us through the gap between the door and the ceiling ! The bathroom is shared, which is not a problem at all for us, but the size and lack of cleanliness were more an issue. We stayed a couple of more days in Phnom Penh but didn't want to extend our stay there, so we left the next morning. For the payment, they also try to apply a higher conversion rate than everywhere we have gone (4050) which didn't make sense for us.

I love the atmosphere. It feels universal, "peaceful" like the name implies, and welcoming.

It can get pretty hot! But there are fans and ventilation.
