The Funky Village

Expectation/Reality: The rooms and the photos were pretty close, and you will get pretty much what you expect. The bed is a foam top which isn't bad. Security: Generally secure. No safe, and the key is attached to the bracelet, but the location and the space felt secure. Hygiene: Generally good. You may have to ask for fresh towels, but the space itself was clean. Hospitality: Quite good, everyone speaks english and is fairly competent. Social Atmosphere: WARNING this is a party hostel. Music will be playing until mid night, so if you want to sleep early you need very good ear plugs. There's lots of events and lots of people to socialize with, typically they are around 21-22 years old, but there are older and younger, generally a good crowd. The volunteers organizing the events are just OK and doing their job, not the most keen or enthusiastic, but reasonably good enough. Overall: Good value for a private room. Good location to see the touristy sights. BEWARE don't book transport through the hostel. It seems convenient but it not a good experience. You get picked up by a tuk tuk, dropped off outside of town and wait by the side of the road were no one speaks english to get into a jam packed into van with broken AC, and no one speaks english, the van left about an hour behind schedule and when arriving at Phnom Penh, it was a dodgy experience, getting into another van alone to be dropped off into the next hostel. It was an uncomfortable adventure, but I did arrive safe, but if i did it again I would book transport through a provider with more direct responsibility.

Great hostel I really liked it. Polite and friendly staff, guests are the same. Clean rooms, not expensive prices. I recommend to everyone

I have stayed in several hostels in Siem Reap over the years. I don’t bother going anywhere else now. If you’re scrolling looking for a place just book here now. Friendliest, kindest staff, great spot

For the price paid is value for money given the location. Will come again if on a budget. Nice hyped atmosphere and suits those travellers who wont mind a little noise.

Good location and good vibe hostel!

Excellent place and pool. Worth all the little money for nice place to stay Downtown Siem Reap.
