The food was good
The bathrooms in the rooms smelled awful. They made the whole room smell terrible, and it was hard to be in the room with that odor. The owner did not seem to be phased when told about the bathrooms and didn’t seem to care to clean it or make the situation better.

Great location
My least favourite Big Easy do far! Stayed in Siem Reap and Phnom Penh. The dorms feel very run down, one of the toilets in the doorm didn’t flush
3.6
The staff was very nice and the location very good, just on the beach.
The rooms are so dark, very small space, and the cleaning is definitely not the best. But it’s fine for a short stay. The value for money is ok.

Location on Saracen Bay cannot be beat. Bottle refills for 2000 riel. Easy access to trails around the island. Close to Mr. Nice Guys BBQ, best value meal on the island for $7 with a drink included. The snorkel/fishing/sunset at M’pai Bay/bbq/and phytoplankton tour was EXCELLENT and should not be missed for only $16.
I asked about drink specials when happy hour rolled around and thought it was 2/1 for all cocktails. It is only their house cocktails that are on special, fyi, even though the drinks we ordered were less complicated than a mojito. Staff didn’t clarify until I got the bill. No ATM on the island and the hostel only accepts cash! The sheets looked like they had cigar burns in them and the fan in the room did not work but the AC did and the bed was comfy so it was okay.

Property was in a good location. Right on the beach. We stayed in the private bungalows. The owner was very friendly.
The room wasn’t the cleanest. The staff were 50/50. Some were really lovely. But some felt like they didn’t care and were just trying to make money. We were told we would be dropped off for free to the port i think by the owner and then one of the guys tried to charge us. We also were charged for water refils even though we were staying there which we werent made aware of. It just felt like some of the staff didn’t care or acknowledge we were staying there. This isn’t aimed at (i think) the owner. Or some of the staff because they were very friendly but overall we had mixed feelings about the stay.

The dorm was really clean, the bar staff were amazing, and they had the best food on the island by far. The beach parties were great, and the pub quiz was also one of the best I’ve attended.
3.6
Beautiful location great accommodation.
Food in restaurant was delicious
Paradise each time you step on to the beach which is literally meters away from your accommodation
3.6
The location is amazing, you’re walking out to one of the best beaches I’ve seen in South East Asia, pictures do not do it justice, there are small fish that swim around your feet as soon as you go into the water. There’s wifi in the dorms which is nice, and they also have lemongrass oil burning in the evening to keep it smelling fresh. Their rice bowls are so SO good (my fav was the gyros bowl) they also do a really nice coffee frappe and frozen passion daiquiri.

Bed was vrij comfortabel. Goede ligging tov andere hotels/hostels. Je kunt hier ook eten en dat was echt super! Meerdere dagen meerdere keren per dag gegeten
Badkamer! Heel veel schimmel aanwezig, muffe ruimte.

I booked 2 nights but ended up staying a week! Wifi was good in the room (perfect for those stay in late days). Absolutely loved the bar staff ra and linda was so friendly and attending, helped me arrange boat tickets to the next location on koh rong. Steve is the man but will not play pool against him again unless I gain bit more skill. Everyday there is a event going on so there is something to do and not sit and ponder what to do, they have killer pool, live dj, quiz nights, beach parties and more! Cocktails are smashing and the big easy bomb is a killer (get your country on the score board)

Party hostel. Good people
3.6
private room was comfy and clean and in the perfect location to be on the beach front where most the activities are
there wasn’t much on socially
3.6
Best place on the island from what we saw. Very lively while still being laid back and the staff were very kind. Also the best food on the island I'm pretty sure
Thin roofs made the top bunks quite hot even when the AC was on
3.6
Staff were great and very helpful. The beds were bigger than single and comfortable and the dorm was clean. The food and drinks were on point. Would definitely go again.
Nothing.
3.6
The food, atmosphere and bar were amazing. Nice clean dorm. Very close to the pier so did not have to carry my bags far. All in all amazing stay
I could only spend one night here
3.6
location and food
the staff are not very welcoming. we asked for glasses with ice for the water because the hot weather is unbearable and the staff would not agree to provide any without buying new drinks.
the toilet in our privet room won’t flash. we asked many times from the reception to fix it and the said they don’t have materials because of the new years holiday, so we stayed with a broken toilet during the stay which is under any expectation.

Nice Location Directly on the Beach
Staff really unfriendly. Tried to charge us more when i tried to extend my stay for be More Night.
There are cameras in the Dorms. So no Privacy!
3.6
- Food was editable.
- Staff were very hospitable (with the exception of the female manager who was anything but polite).
- Cheap place to sleep if you're not planning on staying around the property.
- Toilets had toilet roll and had been cleaned.
- No sign of any rats or cockroaches (as you can see, I'm trying to be positive but the property was just so poor!
- The island itself is slowly becoming a wasteland due to an ongoing dispute between the government and local resort owners which has prompted the government to literally bulldose surrounding resorts and spray graffiti over their walls and premises.
-Even at 9USD per night, the dorms were overpriced and substandard relative to other parts of Cambodia and SEA.
- Very poor WiFi connection which didn't work from the dorms/bungalows. Also, could not pick up an 4G signal.
- The property was not particularly clean and furnishings were outdated.
- Had to ask for my bed linen to be changed and when it was changed the second linen was still unclean (I didn't ask a third time).
- Female Manager at reception was not friendly or welcoming, she was very rude & unhelpful.
- Door to the dorm did not work so people were often locked outside even with their key.
Overall, a very disappointing experience and I would not recommend this hostel.

Fun place to chill though.
Facilities could be cleaner. Staff was nice, but not too friendly. Location very very very far from the pier.

location, food and the fact the beds had curtains, and the beds were comfy
toilets didn’t flush so stunk of wee, and the showers were ice cold

good location
wasn’t clean

Very good service. I had to check out last minute and cancel my last night’s booking due to weather conditions, the reception accepted the late check out and even gave me a refund. Highly recommend
3.6
Great location right at the beach and friendly staff
Bathroom is dirty, shower with cold water only, both toilents didn't flush which is why there was an awful smell, wifi only in the restaurant and no internet access in the room (cellcard)
3.6
The food and restaurant service in general were great.
The rooms are not comfortable. The AC is noisy, and the metal plank beneath the beds make noise everytime one moves. Mosquitos, light bulb was not working, and no wifi, no internet service.
3.6
Good location in beach and tasty food
It's better clean bathroom every day
3.6
Good location at Saracen Bay, close to the path to the Lazy Beach, lovely staff, good menu, wide bed with curtains.
People you need to clean the bathrooms! The bathrooms and sink in the dorm was so dirty that people was so dissguest so everybody was using toilet next to the restaurant. Taking shower was a nightmare. Mold and dirt. Dirty sink and mirror. Super smelly. How it's possible that toilets next to the restaurant is cleaned everyday and dorm showers like... never? This need a renovation and deep cleaning.
Prices of menu was bit expensive.
