The style of the hotel has evolved a lot, there is a lot of free space now. The rooms with several beds are very well organized. Good value for money. The standard and deluxe rooms are perfect for accommodating a child and two adults (my son is always happy to come and sleep and play in the hotel every weekend). The YouTube option on the television is too good!! (Be careful of the electrical outlets in the bathroom above the sinks, they are very dangerous with water) it would be good to put electric kettles for hot water in some rooms. The hotel is very clean. The cleaning team is very well organized for the complete cleaning all day long. The bar team is very friendly and professional. The night reception team is very friendly (thank you Seth for your smile, your advice and your listening to my many questions). The reception day team is very friendly and professional (thank you all for your good work) and thank you Benjamin for the many changes to my room reservations and your kindness with my son). The pool is very good. Very happy for this trip. I will come back next year without hesitation.

A very good sociable hostel. I had a private room very comfortable and extremely clean. It was a good price for the area. The tours and organised events were really good fun. Tin Tin who did our sunset walk was fantastic information. I really enjoyed this. The trip information and booking facilities were also fab. I found it a great way to socialise and meet people I would definitely return to this hostel. The food was also very very good.

Very modern and clean hostel. The 24/7 reception allowed me to checkin at 2:30am which was great. A Grab car from the new airport was around 17$. Wifi was good and strong both downstairs and in the room. The pool and common area is nice and also a good place to work (maybe a bit further away from the bar as the music is usually quite loud there). The room was clean and comfortable and the AC worked well. Universal socket right next to the bed on one side. The location isn't central and you pretty much have to take a tuktuk anywhere (usually 80c-2$ per ride depending on where you go) but there was always one available over Grab. In the area there are some coffee shops, many food stalls, pharmacies and supermarkets. It was generally quiet and I couldn't hear the music from downstairs in the room. However the doors and walls are thin so if you have loud room neighbours you will hear it. The staff was friendly and spoke good English.

Amazing stay, we really enjoyed the Kick-boxing (khun Khmer) training that they offer and that we highly recommend, a transformative experience. It was so good that we prolongued our stay for one week. The hosts are extremely inspiring and have a great energy! The staff is amazing, the room is big and the beds are very comfortable. Everything was very clean and tidy. Also good location, well connected with the tuktuk to the city center and there are great local restaurants nearby. In conclusion, if you are depressed save yourself the psychologist and come here to get a training!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

This hostel is perfect if you want to meet new friends and fellow travelers. It's clean and comfortable, providing a welcoming atmosphere. While it's a bit far from the main tourist attractions, getting around by tuk-tuk is easy and convenient. It's truly one of the best hostels in Phnom Penh, and I can't wait to come back! Highly recommended for social travelers!

It is a super clean hostel, and with plenty of common spaces. However, I think it is for young backpackers with a high budget, because it is a lot of party and the hostel restaurant is expensive, I paid 8.20 USD for a breakfast that consisted of a double espresso plus two pieces of toast with avocado, tomato and one pouched egg... it is expensive.

The hostel has a great location near the riverside, it is rather cheap and the beds are solid and not squeaky. The common bathroom was clean enough.

The onederz hostel is the best destination a solo and small budget traveller could ask for. The hygiene is really good, the beds and bathrooms are really clean. The beds are big and there is free shampoo and soap in the bathrooms. I have been to the onederz hostel everytime I come to Phnom Penh for the week end (around 10 times). It is absolutely amazing. The rooftop is breath taking and the food is good and cheap.

This seems like a luxury backpacker's hostel. A dream for those who want to keep the budget, but at the same time want maximum comfort. Staff speaks good English, attentive, and explain everything clearly. Everything is very clean and it seems you're in a 3 star hotel with a pool, except you share your room with other travelers
