Good to know
Facilities are basic rather than luxurious. Guests who booked prepaid rates have reported that they were unable to obtain refunds and that requests to change rooms were not resolved to their satisfaction. Guests have also reported difficulty reaching the manager on site during their stay.
We were there for five days and stayed only because we pre payed. It was NOT worth the price. We tried to talk to the workers and they wouldn’t do anything so we tried to talk to the manager and he just declined our calls and wouldn’t answer to our messages. His workers said that he would come in 20 minutes every hour we asked and he just Never showed. There were bugs on the beds and when we requested to move to another room, we got even a dirtier room. They wouldn’t give us money back to go to another hotel, and there was no one to clean the room.
We had to stay in a dirty room with no water 75$ a night. Some days When we wanted to shower, there was no water. This happened in the morning and then when we go to the beach and come back, there was still no water, even though we begged they will fix it.
No matter what we did, they wouldn’t fix anything and there wasn’t a service in the hotel. It’s a shame because it is such a good location near the beach.
DO NOT STAY.
The staff are friendly, supportive, and easy to approach for any information, which makes the stay comfortable. The facilities are quite basic and not luxurious, but for a low-budget trip with a team or family, it offers great value and helps save a lot of money. Overall, I really like it.
The Koh Rong beach is beautiful, but dagerous for young children because of the jetski's that are continually sailing past and sometimes within +/- 10 metres of swimming from our children.
Complaind and spoken with the rental companies: I think the rental companies are still incapable to order proper safety measures to people that renting the jetski's Furthermore, i think the beach is unsuitable for jet skis because there are no lifebuoys, etc., present in the swimming area. This is just waiting for a serious accident. Making money on the water seems to be more important than safety of swimming children.
The location of this hotel is great — right in front of the beach. However, the condition of the room was very disappointing. The main door didn’t open fully, the bathroom was cracked, unclean, and had a bad smell.
We paid around $70 per night, which definitely didn’t match the quality provided. Also, the photos online are misleading and don’t reflect the actual condition of the property. Would not recommend unless improvements are made.
For location is quite okay. Room kinda so so, but got some insect and mosquito. Moreover, for the service is pretty low for service care & food beverage serving too long. Kinda feel rating 2/5 stars.
