There were NO hot water as advertised and sometimes you could not use the pool because they said you get skin problems. Staff were annoying trying to sell you extreamly overpriced tuk tuk rides. Dont stay here....close

staff was quite friendly & helpful, rooms were minimal but adequate, breakfast was decent, being outside of town was not an issue as tuk-tuks are readily available, as hostels go it was really nice, would stay again.

Overall, great place to be, and the pool was a definite plus! The bed and pillows were always a bit musty and damp feeling (pillow was not really usable due to the smell).

Would definitely recommend Earthwalkers! We had a really fun time and would go stay again if passing through Siem Reap again. Great staff, fab pool and good local knowledge! Thanks for everything.

Actually, I am rating Jasmine Lodge. When I tryed to book at Earthwalkers, Hostelworld was showing rooms that did no exist. The staff from Earthwalkers was amazing and found accomodation for us anyway!!!!

very difficult to rate as the hostel had not completed its renovations. Staff were good and i can see it being great when it is finshed! it is out of town but for the money you pay a pool is a bonus!

His name is Mr. Sang Kimleng and he has a website (although I havn't tried it myself) - bestoftogo.com You can ask for him at reception I think.close

You must install an aircon in the rooms. It is far too hot and even hotter than outside.

The rooms were very clean and of a decent size with a good sized bathroom. The meals are very good value for money and great quality. It is a bit far out of town but you can get into town for $1 on a Tuk Tuk. Additionally there are plenty of other restaurants nearby but they tend to a bit more expensive than those in town due to the number of expensive hotels close by. All in all a great stay!close

This place is awesome! The staff is unbelievably helpful and friendly! They tidied our room, as if it were a hotel. The only downside was how UNBELIEVABLY hot it can get on the top bunks, as the fans don't do much.

It's all the more better because so much of their projects and proceeds go to local charities. Rock on Earthwalkers!close

A quiet little place to relax after a long day in the Angkor. A home away home. Relaxing environment, friendly people makes you want to come back again. Thanks for providing us a short stay at Earthwalkers. We enjoyed it much. See you guys again someday somewhere around the world. All the best...

The downstairs bar and pool table room are very nice, and there is a beautiful balcony overlooking a cow pasture behind the rooms. The staff was also extremely pleasant and helpful in arranging all our transportation and entertainment. The only two minor drawbacks are first, its about 1km outside of the main town. This was actually kind of nice, because its off the main road a bit, and there were cows and chickens around, as well as tons of croaking frogs at night. Also, it only costs 1 dollar to take a tuk tuk in to town. The second drawback is the bathroom, which had a very weak shower that smelled, and poured directly next to the toilet. Neither of these two drawbacks would keep me from going back in the future though, especially for that price.close

Good place to stay but quite expensive compared with similar. Also when booking trip found paying more than everyone else a sure sign that comission comes into the deal. For that reason would not return as feel if taking more than others on transport deals what other extras are they taking.

Even packed up our breakfast to take on the bus the day we left! Very clean and simple guesthouse, location is a bit out of town but take use of the free bikes Earthwalkers offer and ride into town! Lots of fun! Please note that if you are coming from home pack as many old clothes you can because you can donate through Earthwalkers to orphanages - a great cause. Thanks again!
