We stayed at Comfort House for two nights at the end of November 2013. Our room on the 3rd. floor was spacious and reasonably equipped.There was no lift and no assistance was offered with our luggage.||||The bed was comfortable but a little hard.The view(No view) from the small balcony was of the outside staircase to the adjacent building which was an apartment block and approx 10 feet away. The occupants of that block could see into our room.The balcony was full of pots of plants and so was unusable anyway. || ||The location of the hotel was poor with little of interest outside, but it was easy and about $2.00 to get a tuk tuk to the centre of Phnom Penh and to the Riverside where all the action seems to be. It took us approx 45 minutes to walk to the riverside area for the most part along the Confederation de la Russie.How we survived that waIk I do not know as there were hundreds of motorbike and scooters using the same pavement too. Most travelling in the opposite direction to ours. Definately not to be reccomended.||||Back to the hotel.||||The breakfast was poor compared with other hotels we have stayed in that were at a similar price. The Omelete looked as if it had been moulded into a tube shape. I dont know how. On our last day the tea at breakfast was stewed. I asked for a second cup and on checkout was charged an extra $1. The dollar charge was negligable but it made us feel that our custom and satisfaction was not really valued. It was penny pinching,especially considering that we hadn't used the tea or coffee that was provided in the room on our last morning anyway.||||We thought Pnom Penh was a great place, with plenty to see and do.Shame we only had two days there.||||Would we stay at Comfort House again,...
Read moreFor my last weekend in Phnom Penh, I wanted a hotel located closer to the airport area (family there) and found this new guesthouse at a very reasonable price. The reviews were right, and I did get my huge twin room with balcony. My family could visit me; there was a sitting area in the bedroom, plus the dining table in the back (fridge and complimentary coffee, tee, and water), and the chair on the balcony. Clear TV and good AC. This was the first time that I had a bathtub in the washroom during my three-weeks stay in Cambodia - didn't use though. The room was well lit and I felt safe staying there on my own. There's a big school across from the guesthouse, so it's quite lively during the day.||There's also a market a couple of blocks away, selling food and services to the local clientele. Good experience for tourists! Hotel had arranged for a tuk tuk to pick me from the bus stop, although the $ 5.00 fare was a little high for the short distance. Free laundry and free breakfast are included. Free room service if you need. Tuk tuks are available around the guesthouse or they can call one for you during the evening. I did book the room directly with the management and they were always quick to respond. My only disappointment was the dark washroom: high ceiling and only one light. But there's a table and mirror next to the balcony for putting make up on....
Read moreBooked through Agoda and got cheaper price than what the guest house charge for walkin customer ($20). The buildings are very old, hot water runs but can't fill up a bathtub. Shower water stream was also not steady flow but enough pressure to wash hair and body. Towels and sheets were fine, everyday changed. But cleaning room wasn't done well and coffee cups weren't washed, the desk top was dusty. Refrigerator and electric kettle worked fine. You'd bring in your tea or coffee. It offered just few strips of black instant nescafe. Aircon worked with remote but no remote for tv. As for charging a phone, electric outlets are provided by the bed.|Neighborhood had many Karaoke massage places along with many homes and restaurants, but it was very quiet at night time. The location wise it is near Royal Phnom Penh University and in walking distance. It's just 50 meters there were good Taiwanese restaurants. This and cafe we're easily accessible and made...
