Great location and clean hotel. Hotel noise from the building (not from guests) was annoying. Not many choices for breakfast. Staff was kind and check-in easy.

Reasonable and good hotel. For the price it was ok, although the breakfast was a bit sparse. Rooms are big enough and everything is there. Close to the river Mekong and close to a lot of restaurants.

Really nice small hotel located in a side road off the main road running parallel with the river. Our room had a balcony overlooking the street. There were three choices of hot food for breakfast, plus bread or toast and fruit. There were free hot drinks available in reception. We booked our minibus to Luang Prabang with the hotel and were collected right outside. The only negative issue was that the toilet in the lobby/breakfast bar was out of order and locked up.

Good place.
The hotel is located in a cool area in a walking distance to many attractions. The only problem we had was with a bad smell in our room, but they moved us after we complain. However the room they placed us was very smaller but that was ok. The breakfast is good and staff was super friendly.

Nice little hotel, staff very helpful and accommodating. Room was clean and bed comfortable, basic toiletries also provided as well as slippers. Breakfast was nice and enough to get you going in the morning. Hotel is very central to markets and points of interest. Easy to get a Tuk Tuk at the end of the Street if you don’t fancy walking in the heat. Would definitely stay again if visiting Vientiane. Many thanks for our lovely stay.

Secret gem
I’ve try many guest houses in Vientiane and this and this one is the best overall for my needs. Paid $30 a night during my stay in December 2017. Room is clean and modern. Bed is comftable. WiFi is ok. Toothbrush, toothpaste and small soap was provided. Safe box included. Location was very good. 2 min walking from all the main center. The downside is that there’s only two choices for breakfast. Eggs with omolette with sausages, bacon, salad and fruit. Also there’s no elevator so if your on the 3rd floor, you might do some exercise. The staff is young and need to be improved but your in a 3rd world country. For $30, don’t ask for Luxury or a 5 states services. Go down the street at the Dhavara where they charge do I over $100.

Hotel was very nice. The room was clean and modern. The balcony room was a nice treat. Staff were extremely helpful. The location is only a few steps away from the night market.

This was a good place to stay, but you can find places right down the street for 2/3 the price with breakfast. Here they only have tea and coffee in the morning. Internet was a bit weak and intermittent.

Alright.
I stayed here a few nights 3 I believe. It has a good location close to the mekhong river. It's 26 usd or 32 after hotels.com taxes. It rained all day and night so I never got clean towels. No breakfast just tea and coffee. I paid 70,000kips to go to vang vieng from here when normally it's 40-50kips.

대체적으로 방비엥 넘어가기에 좋은 숙소입니다.
우선 숙소 자체는 깔끔하고 청결합니다. 화장실을 중요하게 생각하는데 방 3개 모두 깨끗했습니다. 또한, 리셉션 직원들도 매우 친절했습니다. 조식은 그냥 방비엥으로 떠나기 전에 배를 채울 정도였는데 방값 생각하면 만족합니다. 다만 하나 아쉬운 점은 방이 생각보다 넓어서 에어컨이 좀 약한 느낌이 듭니다.

可もなく不可もなく。値段相応。これ以上の金額ならまず泊まる事はない。ルームメイクの際に忘れたのかシャンプーとリンスがなかった。備え付けの小さい石鹸で洗髪したから髪がゴワゴワ。部屋のドアに隙間があり薄い為、他の部屋の音がうるさく感じる事が多い。特に夜中の性交渉の声は本当に勘弁してほしい。立地はいい。スタッフの接客も近辺の他のホテルに比べたらいい方。
