Convenient location to take the boat to Cambodia.

Perfect location to catch the boat to Cambodia. Quick check in

Not the easiest to find, location is not right on booking.com. Hard bed, weird plastic like sheets. Fridge didn’t work. But for 7£ I didn’t expect much Actual location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/YS54GDr9dEKUgGs7A?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy

It was very near to the speed boat station and also near to restaurant and supermarket

There was ants everywhere. The people that are managing it they don’t speak English ( is not a problem you can use translator) but they were a little bit rude. I asked for toilet paper ( because there is not in the room) and they told me that I have napkins in the room and I can clean with them ( also there was not in the room). Finally they gave us but in a rude way and shouting. I know that the room is cheap, but I sleep in diferent homestays in Vietnam for almost the same price, and they are totally uncomparable with this one.

The only good thing about this place is its location: just a couple of minutes's walk from the pier (in case you are taking the boat to Cambodia).

1. This homestay overcharged me. When I arrived, I said immediately that I have a booking from Booking.com. And I said it via Google Translate, so there was no problem in understanding due to lack of English skills. Having booked from the laptop and not having printed out or saved the confirmation on my phone, I asked the employee to remind me how much I should pay. She said “250.000 dong”. So I paid. Later that day, I double-checked my booking: it turned out that I had to be charged 219.000 dong. So, it wasn’t a mistake due to a misunderstanding: she overcharged me on purpose, hoping I won’t notice. The difference was refunded eventually, though. 2. The owners of this homestay are noisy. They had dinner at 9 pm, and one woman was shouted throughout the dinner. Crazy! 3. There was an unpleasant hissing noise at night, at a certain pitch disturbing to the human ear. I failed to identify where it was coming from. But only when I switched off both the AC and the fridge did it go away. Meaning I had to spend the night without an AC. Neeedless to say, given the shouting and the noise / lack of AC, I had a terrible night. 4. There is no reception. There is just a chair, and an old woman was sitting there when I arrived. However, after overcharging me, she disappeared, and no employees were seen again that day. Clever trick! 5. There are two big dogs in the lane where the homestay is. One of them runs around and barks at customers. The other one apparently lives at the homestay.

Tge staff

Woke up with tons of bugs in my bed

Everything was great

Ok

Nothing

Great location for getting the boat that goes to Cambodia (5 minute walk to the Victoria Hotel). Lovely, friendly owners. Simple rooms, good prices.

Location. Price. Staff. Clean. Room size. . Rooms now have electric kettle🙂

A full bed size sheet would be nice. But for the price I can go without.

Really nice and friendly staff, room was clean, well made and the hotel is in a great location, not far from the ferry landing, you can walk it in 5 mins. Also close to banks if you need to exchange money (not open if you arrive late from Phnom Penh - also don’t exchange from Riels so make sure you have dollars).

Basic but you get what you pay for.
