Spent 3 nights at this hotel and it was a great experience. The hotel is on the older side but the room is huge, the ac is cold and the wifi works great. For the price of a fast food meal in the west, what more could you ask for? The best part of the stay is without a doubt the hospitable owner Michael and his wife. Not only were they friendly, Michael offered me many great advices and even treated me to a wonder dinner his wife prepared on my last night. Overall, for what you are paying. The hotel offers everything you would need. If you are looking for a luxury experience, go book a 5-star hotel. If you are looking to travel on a budget with a large room with all the basic accommodations and a wonderful owner, than look no further.

My recent stay at this hotel had its pros and cons. On the positive side, the owner was friendly, and the bed was comfy. However, the negatives were hard to overlook. The shower consistently had cold water, and the bathroom had a persistent odour. The reception area had a strong cat urine odour, with about 4 adult cats and 3 kittens. A less-than-pleasant surprise included encountering cat faeces on multiple occasions in the lobby and hallway. Contrary to expectations, there's no pool, and breakfast options are basic, limited to toast, bananas, and instant coffee. The wifi was also subpar. While the owner's hospitality and a comfortable bed were highlights, the drawbacks might make you reconsider this hotel. It's worth exploring other options in the area.

Run by a friendly man from Singapore, this is a perfectly acceptable budget hotel.

Truly a “haven” in the midst of a busy town! The open air reception, the hand carved wooden tables, the smiling staff and owner … all charmed us and made our stay lovely! After hours of kayaking and traipsing thru the downtown area, we enjoyed warm showers and a relaxing, spacious room. The location was perfect: an easy walk to many restaurants and yet a quiet place to retire and recharge. We are definitely going back to this hotel!

We Had booked 2 nights in Vangvieng but stayed 18 hrs. The town is a dusty dump, filled with silly Chinese tourists renting noisy motor boats going up and down the river, and driving DuneBuggies on the city roads. The hotel is falling apart, even the somewhat new building part. Bathroom is dirty and repaired with a piece of plywood. On one side, The backpacker hostel next door is noisy until late; on the other side there is a construction site that’s in operation 12 hrs a day. The internet doesn’t work on room floors despite multiple routers. Only the lobby and pool ones are reliable. The only positive was a decent mattress (still firm but not hard) and fresh new nice smelling bed linen (amazingly). If your budget is low, it beats an hostel, but for few dollars more you can find better. And keep in mind they don’t provide breakfast (easy to find on Main Street). Left early the next morning to go to Vientiane...

Ok hotel. Quite good value for money. Sentral. Functional aircon. Like mentioned before the owner has many cats. I observed Cat pop around the reception area - that was not /removed within the next day...

Would reccomend this place. Good location and having a pool is good touch. Our sink was leaking and they fixed it when they cleaned our room without us having to ask or even tell them that it was leaking which I thought was very thoughtful
