Passable

Friendly staff but beware of the roosters!

Host helped with booking tours and planning our transportation to Phnom Penh. Friendly staff.

Oh, those roosters. They start crowing well before dawn and just won't stop. OK for sound sleepers but for light sleepers (like myself) it will be a problem. I'm sure there is nothing Sam So Guesthouse can do about it (not their roosters).

Superb

Guesthouses like Sam So are the backbone of SE Asian travel. The staff were friendly, the room clean, shower hot, well located, but most important this place was value for money. Would not hesitate to recommend.

Very good

It's lovely to stay in a Khmer owned guesthouse. It's not fancy but has everything you need and is 10-15 min casual stroll along the river on the quiet side to Old Market/Pub Street and the area it is in is quiet at night (a huge plus in Siem Reap). We slept really well here, it has a calm energy. Mrs. Sotheavy (on front desk) was extremely helpful and full of good, easy to understand information. Gave us great recommendations including for the small local restaurant around the corner (20m away), great recommendation for massage (also locally owned), organised bus tickets etc. She also organised a very good rental motorbike at short notice, we were pleasantly surprised (we've rented some really bad ones in Cambodia). It was great to meet Sam So and we wish them all the best for these post COVID times. As someone who works in tourism I've visited SR many times and stayed in many different places and this one I highly recommend for an ethical budget traveller.

The breakfast was OK but would probably advise to go elsewhere. The coffee was sachet and with creama, not milk.

Exceptional

Our first choice! Excellent guesthouse!

As always it's a wonderful experience. The owners, the staff, the guesthouse, the service - - all are excellent. They treat you like a family and they have all the information to make your stay memorable. Very near to all commodities you needed, and best location to stay for visiting the temples in Seam Reap. We highly recommend! Thank you so much Sel and Samso. We'll definitely be back!

simple but clean with friendly owners

The room and bathroom are very clean, Wi-Fi works well, shower is hot and has good water pressure. The owners of the guesthouse are very friendly and keen to help book tours etc. For all the Italians out there, the husband speaks Italian very well and does tours of Angkor in Italian!

The bed is a little bit hard but overall comfortable.
