The Big Easy Koh Rong Samloem

This has been the greatest hostel we’ve stayed at so far. The dorms were nice with really nice restrooms. The only downside was that there was no hot water. The staff, especially the owner, was super nice and made us feel very welcome and taken care of. We ate at their restaurant for all our meals since the food was so delicious and also cheaper compared to the other hostels and resorts nearby. I would definitely recommend this hostel.

This is a very honest review. The big easy is a friendly hostel, with a great location (1 min walk from onederz which is where most stuff goes on), and good facilities. They have the basics nailed down - AC, curtained dorm beds, private sockets, and a functioning shower. They host a great pub quiz night on Wednesdays which boasts a $150 prize to the winning team, with free shots and rounds of beer given out to the winners of mini games. It’s in the beach where you want to be - saracens bay - as you can take day trips to the other places but here is where the action lies. However, i did get bed bugs on my second night here and, after informing the staff, they changed my sheets but did not take the mattress away (bedbugs live in the mattress). If you go there I would avoid dorm 4 bed 6… I also booked the bus through the hostel. It was $22. I asked one staff member why it was $14 online and she said it included transfer directly to my hostel etc and was much comfier. I paid $22 but ended up on the same $14 bus my friends got which admittedly was funny but I was annoyed that the staff member had lied to me knowing she wouldn’t see me again. However, I must say that the staff were generally very kind and helpful and the breakfast roll is delicious. My one piece of advise is dont book the $22 bus from the hostel but the $14 bus on 12goasia. It only means you have to walk an extra 2 mins instead of getting picked up on a moped.

Id say here or Onederz best in KRS, the social is very good here and is also minutes walk to Onederz, food is decent, rooms are decent, good location.
