Description
With 60-odd rooms, Home Sweet Home does a big turnover of budget travellers looking for a cheap room. There's nothing particularly charming about the place -- rooms are clean and well sized, with cable TV and well maintained bathrooms, but there's precious little to distinguish this place from a cheap hotel. For the standard, prices are not unreasonable and if you're staying more than a night or two you should be able to wangle a discount pretty easily.

Total rooms: 27

Don't stay next door! -

We stayed next door at the Happy Guesthouse and were very unhappy there. First, we got food poisoning from eating lunch at the guesthouse. Then, we ran into problems with the very dodgy staff. We felt quite harassed by the staff, with one tuk tuk driver following us out one night, seating himself at our table, and proceeding to drink from our glasses of drink! Strange... So if you can't get a room at Home Sweet Home, don't settle for the seemingly nice guesthouse next door -- you've been warned!

Sigh... it's okay -

We stayed here for three nights, only because our other three guesthouse choices couldn't accommodate us. The room was fine, and the bathrooms were more spacious than others we encountered. We didn't have any noise issues with the hallways as others seem to have had. My main issue was with the staff. As two female travellers, we always felt as if we were being leered at. Add to that, the staff were never able to provide anything when they said they would (don't believe them when they say your laundry will be back in the morning!). For what it was, it was fine... but I don't think it was worth $15!


Great value -

We stayed here for three nights and found the place to be good. You can't complain for 12 bucks anyway. Clean, spacious and private. Staff were very friendly but the hallways are loud in the morning. The pizza place across the street does great breakfast as well.


Ugh -

Nowhere else to stay during high season! We spent three nights here, and grumbled incessantly about the lack of decent lighting in the "spacious" rooms, dirty sheets and loud hallways. Unfortunately, we were also duped into buying bus tickets to Bangkok from the hotel on what turned out to be scam buses. We luckily were able to escape the death trap of a bus and hitchhike to the border, at a loss of US$20 for both of us. Anyways, stay at the Two Dragons if you can.


5 Nights In Siem Reap -

Nice spacious rooms with vaulted ceilings. The location is US$1 ride to the markets and such via tuk-tuk. The family was friendly. The little Internet cafe on-site had much to be desired for, though. Luckily there are other cafes nearby.

European Guest House
566 Wat Bo, Siem Reap
Set on a back road in Wat Bo, backpacker-orientated European Guesthouse has quite smart, clean rooms in a two storey house. The rooms are well looked after and while the staff don't speak all that much English, they're all smiles and European had the vibe of a very friendly, family run guesthouse.... more
