Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel boasts a fantastic rooftop pool that adds to its appeal, and the staff were truly wonderful and attentive. However, the room I stayed in was a bit small, and some amenities lacked, like adequate storage and hot water. Overall, it offers great value for those on a budget, but there are definitely areas that need improvement for a more comfortable experience.
During my stay, I enjoyed the beautiful rooftop pool with stunning views of the city, and the staff were very polite and helpful. However, the location was not ideal for nightlife, and the prices for food and drinks felt a bit high for Cambodia. Overall, it was a pleasant experience but with some room for improvement.
I had such a wonderful stay at this hotel, with a fantastic rooftop pool that offered stunning views of the city and river. The spacious room was clean and comfortable, making it a perfect retreat after a day of exploring. The breakfast options were quite good, but I wish there were a few more choices. The only downside was the limited number of sunbeds at the pool, which meant it was a bit crowded at times. Overall, it was a delightful experience and great value for money.
I had high hopes for this hotel, but it fell short of expectations on several fronts. While the staff was attentive and the rooftop area offered stunning views, my room was quite basic and poorly maintained, leaving me feeling underwhelmed for the price. The breakfast and location could also use some improvement to justify the costs, making it hard to call this a great value for money.
