Funny Riverside Backpackers

Etablissement situé à 10mn à pied du marché de nuit et du Centre historique de Luang Prabang au calme. Cette AJ dispose d'une forte capacité d'accueil. Le niveau de propreté est bon tout comme le wifi. La disposition des dortoirs est bien avec suffisamment d'espace. 2 salles de bains et WC par dortoir. La piscine est petite mais rafraichissante. Les espaces communs sont agréables avec une vue sympathique sur un affluent du Mékong. Un service de blanchisserie peu onéreux et rapide (24h) est disponible. Un change (bon taux) est à 2mn dans la rue principale.

Le petit déjeuner présente certes 9 options au choix mais il est très léger. La serviette est payante. Le personnel manque un peu d'empathie.

Nice communal space and rooms. Room came with good AC. Bathroom was cleaned daily. Came with a basic free breakfast (eggs and bread, made to order). Has a nice view of the river although in the dry season the river shrinks a lot lol.

Didn’t feel very social and they don’t organise activities there (although you can book tours through them and other guests may also be joining so you can meet people that way). Overall, perfectly decent place to stay. Hostel is about 20 mins walk to centre of town which personally wasn’t a problem for me. You go through so winding narrow paths to get to the hostel - the first time might be confusing lol. A lot of aggressive dogs in the area at night, I felt unsettled by that. Hostel also has dogs that live there but they are friendly.

Great pool area, really nice breakfast and food to order.

The dorm wasn’t the best or cleanest, people were quite rude considering the aircon and the toilet area just wasn’t sanitary.

Staff was nice and the location was great ! Good breakfast.

Insects ! A lot ! Even in the bed.. not comfortable at all. And showers was not verry clean..
