This hotel is perfectly located close to old city and tons of dining and shopping options. The outside looks great but the rooms definitely need a retrofit. Bed/pillow made us wake up like we had just came from a marathon! Windows were so old that was really difficult to close them and the bathroom is too small and shower is not good and does make a mess in the bathroom when showering. A/C and frigobar was too loud overnight. Breakfast was really good, you have to choose between western (coffee/tea, fresh fruits, breads, eggs) or Laotian (coffee/tea, fresh fruits and pork sandwich). I’ve tried both and they are delicious and large portions.

We loved our stay here! We were here a while and it was great for a long stay. Very convenient to the night market and all the bars and restaurants. Great breakfast each morning and so nice to hang out on the porch and people watch. Next door to one of the temples too, you can tbeat this spot it was very nice clean and comfortable

Wonderful Stay
I arrived very early in the morning having booked on the day due to leaving another guesthouse down the road which was very unclean. I was greeted by a friendly man on the front desk (I'm sorry I didn't get your name) he allowed me to keep my bag in the office and helped me book a minivan to Vang Vieng. When I was able to check in my bags were moved to my room. I had room 100 with balcony overlooking the river. Room was spacious and clean, hot water avaliable and a couple of English TV channels including HBO. My room was cleaned each day, great location. All staff friendly. I wish I had booked here originally. Thank you all.

Loved the wooden shytters, iur street level patio, breakfast delivered as our room(100) was next to main reception. Is a bust traffic corner at 6am( very close to alms giv I ng) and 5 to 630pm(local traffic) but part of charm for us. Location/view worth it

We were here in 2019. We loved our street level patio looking toward the river. Fab deck delivered breakfast as our room is adjacent to the main area. Ask for room 100 if you can. The owner is very nice.

location was good
I should not expect too much for this price but it was a classic old inn. We only stayed one night, old shower room was very very basic one,neighbour's rooftop views and many mosquitoes from riverside bush were happy to attack me silently. I can't trust tripadvisor's rating system anymore!!
