Reviews for VIBOLA Guesthouse

Review 1:Great location. Easy to walk everywhere in Kampot. Very comfortable. Twin room was very spacious with two full size beds and two full bathrooms! The pool was great and staff was friendly and helpful. Overall recommended!

Review 2:Staff werent friendly and manager had a weird hostile vibe. Room smelled of stale smoke.

Review 3:Pool nice for a quick dip on a hot day Rooms nice modern decor

Review 4:water draining from a/c goes into shower which is then wet all the time and shower isn't very strong or very warm

Review 5:Comfortable bed Good pillows Reasonably quiet Great natural light on the 3rd floor, plus you can see the river from the entry Balcony Great location off the street, but near everything Decent pool

Review 6:Building seemed new but was very worn. Pool rather unclean, slow wifi, bathroom poorly designed.

Review 7:Did the job but wouldn't want to stay there more than 2 days.

Review 8:Do not give them your laundry! It is worse than indonesia (white clotheswill turn black!!) The walls are also pretty thin!

Review 9:Amazing staff and good motorbike rental

Review 10:no safety box in the room and no cameras in the hallway therefore poor security.

Review 11:friendly and uncomplicated staff, nice pool, motorbike rent, room is not in newest condition but it's ok for the price

Review 12:You can see from our review score we were very disappointed with our stay here. The main reason was the Manger a very rude man who ruined our stay. When we arrived we did not get early book in as shown on booking.com. When we finally got our room 2 hours later we were shown to a twin (we booked a double). We calmly explain the situation and the manager was called, he asked us rudely 'do you need a double'. We were shown to a double room but realised we where meant to have a balcony. We asked the Manger about it and he was immediately defensive claiming we couldn't choose a room. We kept explaining that there is a photo on the room of a balcony. He claims that if you request a balcony on booking.com you can have one. He then said we could cancel and leave or he could chuck the current people out of that room for us. He basically over booked the room and he didn't have the decentcy to apologise for his mistake. To top it off we locked our bags in the wardrobe (no safe) with our cable lock. When we returned the lock had been stretched and some of the plastic worn away. Someone was very curious of what was in there. That made us feel very uncomfortable about leaving our stuff. The pool was also green and cloudy for the whole of our stay, we never jumped in. The shower never warmed up. The cover was a blanket and then a sheet on top (a bit strange not seen that before). We also had a lovely visit from a cockroach which we had to exterminate with their can of spray. The staff streamed movies or TV on their laptop all day that seemed to affect the WiFi.

Review 13:The location is in town near the cafes and resturants. The room is alright. The rest of the staff are nice but there is a obvious lack of training.

Review 14:The Pool was really filhfy green (compair it to the hotel pics) , I did not dare to swim there. The shower was not always warm. The rooms where clean, but the other area's where not clean at all.

Review 15:Price, airco, clean room, location, friendly staff

Review 16:No hot water Only one person at the desk speaking english Water in bathroom stinks Smel of the damp in the room Two day noise from wedding tent opposite

Review 17:Location Clean

Review 18:The hosting familiy is super friendly, but not all speak english very good. The swimming pool is really refreshing on a hot day, but the water could be a bit cleaner. When you sit next to the swimming pool in the evening every now then a small ant walks by, and stings you somewhere, nasty mother ducker.

Review 19:Great location, nice staff, very nice new hotel.

Review 20:Payment cash only. Pool was ordinary if your booking for that reason.

Review 21:Close to the river and eating places. Arranged a car to Phnom Penh and a scooter for us.

Review 22:We just think that with a few extra additions, this could be an excellent hotel. No water or fridge in rooms, blocked toilet, leaking sink. Towel rack fell off when trying to hang up the towels! The tiles around the pool are very slippery when wet. My husband slipped last time we were there and needed several physio sessions to ease the bruising. This time our grandson slipped and sustained a large lump on the back of his head.

Review 23:We liked the location, the pool and the price

Review 24:The guest rooms had signs telling the guests to be quiet after 9pm but there was still noise.

Review 25:The room was basic but nice. In walking distance to riverside. You can hire a moped for $4 a day here. Staff are nice and friendly ?

Review 26:Slightly out of the way, but this means it is quieter & still able to walk everywhere!

Review 27:Brand new hotel with big rooms (double room has 2 double beds & 2 ensuites!) Super clean! Great A/C. Really comfy beds & pillows! Nice clean pool. Friendly staff.

Review 28:Really friendly crew running this place! Rooms are spacious and immaculate, good showers, aircon, good security. Such a comfortable, friendly stay! A short walk to he river, restaurants, bars etc.

Review 29:Looked like they decided to open before all the construction clean up was done, No frig in the room.

Review 30:Staff helped me get my laptop hooked to WIFI, nice pool,good rooms with lots of light, overall a real kicked back kind of place.

Review 31:Young guy in reception speaks very little English so has to make a phone call each time so takes a while

Review 32:Rooms were very spacious, booked a double an got two doubles and two bathrooms! Location right next to the river so close to bars and restaurants Walking distance to where bus drops you off Pool refreshing but no space for loungers

Review 33:Staff had next to no English, but great smiles. More like dorm accommodation. No fridge. Very hard to find, walked past it a couple of times.

Review 34:The pool was a plus. Lots of good street food places very close by for excellent noodle soup breakfasts. Walking distance to markets, river and restaurants. Friendly staff.

Review 35:The thing I would say but just being picky is a kettle but then when I asked they gave me there's to use to take it back

Review 36:The rooms where perfectly clean, comfy bed, good power shower and location is perfect! Couldn't believe what you get for your money especially having a pool as well little bit of luxury for a traveller couple price! Staff were all extremely friendly and helped arrange bikes and tuk Tulsa to view the beautiful kampot!

Review 37:The hot water cut off or night

Review 38:nice rooms with WiFi and air con and hot water. Staff were nice and pooL was a relief from heat. motor rental for $4 and the staff explained how to ride them

Review 39:No hot water as solar not working properly. No safe. Rooms were roughly built.

Review 40:If you are staying a night or two for a bed this is the place. For $19 a night we weren't expecting anything too great but it had air con bathroom tv rooms big. Was more like an Upmarket backpackers place.

Review 41:The stuff doesn't speak English too much, Wi-Fi didn't work at all, room was kind of clean but the shower was smelly maybe because the silling was weate and the toilet papear was weate too, we didn't like to stay in the room...

Review 42:Good location

Review 43:No safe in room,and no card facilities .

Review 44:A lovely little hotel with the best staff. The owner invited everyone staying at the hotel to his daughters Ist birthday to try real Khymer food and drinks. The rooms are clean,the pool inviting,close to the river,the staff cared for our passports And all was well We would recommend

Review 45:Really nice and clean for a really cheap price. Twin room more like a hotel room than a hostel/guesthouse. Comfy beds, good pool and cheap motorbike hire.

Review 46:Rooms were a good size and clean, although they did not provide newlinens or towels during our 3 night stay. Location was perfect - easy towalk anywhere in town. We rented motorbikes that were only $4/dayand were able to cover a lot of ground outside Kampot. Staff wasfriendly but English wasn't spoken well by most.

Review 47:the entrance of the hotel could be better. It feels like a garage entrance but once inside it is lovely.

Review 48:Staff were very friendly. The location was very near the river and especially the "firefly" river cruise I loved to go on each night for on 5 dollars for a 2 hour ride.

Review 49:Sometime communicating with the staff was a challenge. they forgot to tell us our rental was there and we ended up waiting 30 minutes for no reason.

Review 50:The staff was very nice and the room was lovely. The pool was fun. It is in a great part of town.

Review 51:dogs barked throughout the night which seemed to be right next door and there is a rooster early morning. I didn't have any hot water but other guests did. Wifi didn't seem to work either in my room. I stayed on the ground floor.

Review 52:The pool was nice. Good location. Just around the corner from rikitikitavi which has good food

Review 53:Nothing.

Review 54:$19 a night for a lovely room, strong AC, excellent clean bed, satellite TV, swimming pool, great shower, spotless, strong wifi nearly all the time. Great place. And a tidy little balcony to smoke or watch the rain

Review 55:Courtyard is very narrow, so keeping the curtains open in the room allows everyone to see in. Still, not a big deal, as I didn't spend much time in my room anyway.

Review 56:Looks to be brand new, and only a stone's throw from the river.

Review 57:Still works in the hotel. Dirty rooms withs lots of dust. Windows don't close properly due to bad finsihing of the facilities. Cheaply finished hotel, connected with what you pay for it.

Review 58:Price, swiming pool & Location

Review 59:the construction in the building was still on going. so much noise from early in the morning. and the pool is right outside of your door.. you wont be able to sleep cuz of the splashing noise from the pool since they dont have policy to stop people swimming in late times. water in the shower was sometimes too hot and sometimes just cold. it was hard to control. and it's newly built..so expect to have paint+glue smell in the room burning your eyes.

Review 60:good location. they let you park your car inside of the gate.

Review 61:The plumbing's a bit of an issue - sometimes you have to wait 5 minutes for cold water to come on (some weird pump system that doesn't do the job very well) and there was a sewage small in the bathroom. Hopefully these are just 'teething problems' since the hotel's so new.

Review 62:Everything was really clean - the pool looked great (didn't get a chance to use it unfortunately) and the staff and their family are really friendly and helpful. The room was big and really nicely laid out.

Review 63:No breakfast. Noisy AC. Dirty pool.

Review 64:Nice central location. Comfortable but basic rooms. Excellent value for money.
