Luang Prabang

On the plus side the rooms were clean, there was soap and shampoo provided in the bathroom and free tea/coffee and a cool water dispenser.
However the overall feel of the place was one that lacked care or any customer service at all.  There was little in the way of information for things to do in the local area and the guy behind re eption was constantly on his phone and looked like he couldn't care a less. We stayed for 6 nights and on the 4th day had to ask for our room to be cleaned and the toilet bin to be emptied.  The stay itself was OK but the lack of attention from staff somewhat let it down. 

Lack of care and attention

Location is excellent, right in the centre of Luang Prabang. The owner and staff are very friendly and helpful, and they assisted with recommendations, renting a scooter for a day and booking the slow boat to Huay Xai. The rooms are a tad small for two people but nothing to complain about whatsoever. The shower is hot and we were provided with all products. Wi-Fi works excellently and we were able to FaceTime our families. Beds are clean and comfortable. There is free filtered water available 24/7. Absolutely recommend staying here!

A very pleasant stay in LP

The guest house is located along Khong River while the road in front is the key road the all major destinations such as pier, night/morning market, Wat and cafe. It is an absolute stay for a backpackers who can travel by feet. I stayed at room 201 - a small room with big bed and rest room. People here is such a perfect host Khun Ampai she helped me a lot for my first visit at Luang Prabang.

Cosy and Convenient Stay in Luang Prabang

It's a perfectly small guesthouse located in Luang Prabang, very clean and quiet. The staff is hospitable and professional. Eric, the manager is great, he always advised us and helped us when we needed it. He's always in a good mood and smiling. We highly recommend this guesthouse, go with your eyes closed!

It's perfect in Luang Prabang.

It was a perfect stay - the staff were some of the kindest I’ve met. The room was clean with an amazing hot shower and the location was perfect for exploring all of the town and night market. The puppy was a nice extra haha.

Stay here

I  stayed here for 6 days and had an overall great stay. It is located on a quiet street overlooking the river. There is a restaurant of the same name and staying guests get 20% off dining there - the food was really good and I ate there at least once a day :)

The room was small but very clean and had most things you needed. There is no hairdryer or kettle but there is a water dispenser on the first floor so you can refill your water and save the earth by not using plastic bottles. The French manager and his staff are really lovely and helpful - they helped me with laundry, taxi etc... They own 2 cats and a dog which are very tame and sweet too. 

My stay was almost perfect except for noise: there were noisy guests who kept slamming the doors loudly early morning and night. The management has posted notices in each room about keeping noise levels down but it depends on your neighbours to adhere to them. Towards the end of my stay, a French couple next door spoke loudly outside my door daily at morn and night and slammed the door so hard as if they were angry?  My toilet sink was slightly clogged but it worked fine mostly. 
Overall, I would recommend this place and would stay again. If you're a light sleeper, use ear plugs/white noise :)

Great clean place, friendly hosts except minor issues

I stayed on two occasions and both times the rooms were clean and well appointed,  if a little small.  The guesthouse restaurant across the road had superb views of the Mekong and offered guests a 20% discount. But the best aspect was the friendliness and helpfulness of the manager and his staff. Would recommend for solo travellers.

Lovely place

The service was just excellent from Eric and his staff. He made sure you knew all the best ways to see and do what you wanted. The hotel is right near the river and restaurant attached looks over the river.

Great service 

We stayed here on and off for nine days and loved it!It has an excellent location by the Mekong and close to everything else in town. The rooms are small but very pleasant and impeccably clean (!). They have one front room which is bigger and has a balcony facing the street and river. It is slightly more noisy but we loved it. All the rooms have comfortable washroom and plenty of hot water. Good wifi connection. It has a very homely ambiance. Eric the manager is very nice, friendly and super-helpfull. It is very resonably priced.
They have a very good restaurant with lovely river views and a good variety of tasty dishes (20% discount to hotel guests).
Highly recommend!

Great place to stay

The hotel room is small but ok. The bed mattress is very good and the shower as well. The towels are old and tight but seemingly clean. The highlight is even the attendance of Erick, who besides being nice and funny, is very helpful in helping guests in any need in Luang Prabang. Breakfast at the front restaurant, which is not included in the daily but has a good discount for guests, and is reasonable. Restaurants also on the river bank and a few meters away offer better options and at the same price (although considering the discount).
