The hostel is a beautiful place; my room was spacious and super comfortable. The staff are wonderful and extremely helpful. I loved the sweet ladies in the kitchen who always made me delicious food. The tasks were clear and well-defined, and even though there wasn't much work to do—since there weren't too many guests—I had a great time. The only downside is that there isn't much to do in Kep.

I loved my time here. The people were super nice and welcoming. I would recommend this place to someone, wo likes a quiet time. I had a lot of time for myself, but it's because of low season. I met the best people while I worked with them and a few guest. During my time there was not much to do for work. I would definitely come back here, but next time in high season. Thank you for the time! :)

The hostel is a hidden gem. The owner and all the staff are genuine, kind and accommodating hosts. They helped with bike rentals, told me about things to see in the area and any errands or issues I had. It is a small team but super social and we would often drink or eat after work. For me it was the perfect time to relax and recharge after some hectic months of travel. This was the perfect spot, I could practice my hand stands in their pool, chill in the hammocks by the fish pond or take a bike and explore Cambodias caves, temples or national park.

From the first day, the whole team were so welcoming and I felt like at home. Everyone was so friendly, tasks were easy and communication with host was always clear. They prepare fresh food everyday and they even customise some dishes for me. When I was not working, I had plenty of time to explore the area and get immersed into the khmer culture. Will definitely recommend to everyone!! Thank you so much for these two weeks in the hostel!!😊

Lidia was amazing person. Very outgoing individual and got along with the team so well. Learned quick about the Kep area and the amenities our hostel had to offer easily.

Anyone who will hire Lidia will be grateful!!

I had such a good time at the hostel. The staff at the bar (Ponlue, Doll, Nat, Djo ) are such heartfelt and funny people. The host Rada was super nice and often checked in with me if I needed anything. The girls in the kitchen (Sophal, Sophea) prepared the best food, there were so many vegetarian options. I stayed in the female dorm which is very spacious with comfortable beds. I was really encouraged to explore Kep and the area around which was soo much fun. I read so many books while I was there because it was low season, so good to relax. Would definitely recommend going here!!!
