Prices checked September 2026, in US dollars. Cambodia runs on USD; riel is used for change under a dollar. Rates are per night and vary with season and availability.

Before you book

There is a bar directly below the rooms, and it stays open past midnight.

That is the reason the hostel is social, and it is also the reason light sleepers should ask for the 12-bed dorm or a room away from the front. The bar opens at 7am and runs late, later still for football. If you want quiet before midnight, our island property on Saracen Bay is the better half of the trip. We would rather say so here than have you find out at 1am.

Room questions

Are the dorms mixed?

Yes. There are no female-only dorms at either property. Every bed has a privacy curtain and a locker.

Is there a lift?

No, stairs only to the rooms. Worth knowing if you have heavy bags or difficulty with steps. Bags can be left at reception.

Can I check in outside 2pm?

Reception is open 7am to midnight and will usually work around your bus or flight. Message us in advance rather than assuming.

Can I pay by card?

No. Cash or KHQR, which works from any Cambodian bank app and from partner banks in countries including Vietnam and Thailand.

Do the private rooms have their own bathroom?

Yes, every private room has its own bathroom. Dorm guests share bathrooms that are just for the dorms, separate from the ones the bar downstairs uses.

Can I book a whole dorm?

Yes, for groups. Email us rather than using the booking form, and tell us your dates and numbers.

Is breakfast included?

No, breakfast isn't included in the room rate. The kitchen downstairs serves breakfast all day, from 7am until 10.30pm, and you pay for it like anything else on the menu.

Is there a curfew?

No. Reception closes at midnight but you can come and go.
