“DON'T STAY HERE”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 April 2011
2
people found this review helpful

Appearances in SE Asia, after eight months of travel, are what I've found can be most deceiving. What started out as a good stay became one of worry and annoyance. I came to Siem Reap to volunteer for 2 weeks with a local organization. Earthwalkers was recommended by them, and the hotel gave me a discount for staying so long. So, I thought well that sounds great. And it was. Until I discovered someone had GONE THROUGH MY THINGS to the very bottom of my bag into my tennis shoe and took fifty dollars I had stashed in there. The ironic part of this -- it was the money I had put aside to pay for the hotel at the end of my stay. I quietly spoke with the manager, a woman who had befriended me from the start, hoping to just get my money back and for her to speak to her staff on her own. Of course she was mortified and said she would give me the money back, but then she came to my door with her staff demanding I tell her who did it so she could send them to jail. I refused, I had no idea who had done it nor was it my responsibility to make that call. After that, there was animosity from the staff and the rest of my stay was awkward and uncomfortable.
Now, I know that you shouldn't leave valuable unattended. But this guest house is ran by a family who welcomed me in with open arms and I was highly recommended. I felt safe. The money wasn't out in the open. It was at the bottom of my bag in a shoe. My security was violated and the trust I had for anyone, even the lovely manager, was gone. Please don't stay here. I wouldn't want the same to happen to you.

Room Tip: Don't stay here.

“staff so friendly I enjoyed my stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2011

not the most luxurious place, but the nice staff and pool made up for the rooms that are a bit basic. didnt see cockroaches, although garden has frogs.
the pool is brilliant after a day doing temples. The (inclusive) breakfast but dull, but other food very good.

“Don't stay here...”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 August 2010

Stayed here for 3 nights on the recommendation of the lonely planet...BIG MISTAKE. The rooms were beyond basic,the rooms were filthy the bed sheets and towels were stained.The complex including the bedrooms were infested with flies and frogs...We used their laundry service and our clothes were given back to us wet.Contrary to the guide book the place is not ran by Norwegians it is ran by Cambodians.They organise tours and bus tickets....SCAM..we booked a VIP bus to phonm penh which we were told would be used by only backpackers would have ac and toilet.we paid 11USD.we ended up on a wreck of a bus full of locals that stopped in every lay by along the way. We were the only foreigners.No toilet no ac but there was karaoke...Please don't stay
at earthwalkers there is much
better to be found.we paid 22Usd per night which was to include breakfast...which consisted of 2 warm slices of bread(supposed to be toast) and tea or coffee.... which were accompanied by a family of flies....

“Nice place but too noisy and away from everything!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 July 2010

We had read that this was a very nice place a bit away from the center with a nice pool to refresh from a long day in the Angkor temples.
The place was nice, but the prices were a bit higher that we expected (their prices don't include VAT!!). Also the room was very nice, but at very early in the morning there is a wood factory just on the other side of the wall that starts really early making impossible to sleep after 6h30.
Also , because is fare away from everything, all they have is very expensive. And because you don't have any other place to buy it, you have no chance.
Anyway, the pool is really nice, but deffinitively there must be other "cheap"places in Seam Reap where you can find a quite place with pool.

“Great place for great value”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 March 2010

This is one of the best valued back-packer hotel. The location is not far away from the city, and you can go around by the rented bike with cheap price.
The hotel has a unique foot-shaped swimming pool. A veranda nearby to relax and chat and read books and have a drink.. The bar serves nice juice.
The room itself is very nice. we took a twin-bed room, it was nice and clean and tidy. The staffs were very friendly, we chat and they spoke good english..
