Bon hôtel mais mauvais rapport qualité prix

La réception avec bar et billard. La chambre était propre. Le personnel sympa et aidant. On a pu louer un scooter depuis l’hôtel et laisser nos sacs le temps de faire la boucle.

Mauvais rapport qualité prix. Pas de salle de bain privative ni de petit dej, pour le prix de la nuit c’est plutôt rare au Laos.

Okay, aber keine Empfehlung

+ gutes Internet + Wasserspender + Billiardtisch

- Geruch - Ausstattung: alles wirklich in die Jahre gekommen, entspricht leider gar nicht mehr den Bildern - unbequeme Betten

Nur für einen kurzen Aufenthalt

Nettes und hilfsbereites Personal. Großzügige Zimmer. Billiard umsonst.

Wir haben die Federn der Matratze gespürt. Die Männertoiletten waren ziemlich verdreckt. Man kann sich nicht unten in der Lobby aufhalten, weil da unendlich viele Mücken leben.

Alles zoals het hoort

Na de afgelopen dagen in harde, piepende bedden te slapen was dit bed meer dan welkom! Net. Alles zoals het hoort.

Juste pour une nuit de transit

L'accueil de Tian et son aide via WhatsApp pour réserver notre trajet pour Don Khone Chambre spacieuse, joliment décorée et la salle de bain très grande avec une véritable partie douche !

Le lit n'était pas confortable, vraiment trop dur. Les murs sont fins, on entend pas mal de bruit pensez à prendre des bouchons d'oreille ^^ Il y avait un cafard à moitié mort dans la salle de bain à notre arrivée ...

À passer

Nous avons séjourné à deux reprises dans l’établissement mais nous aurions dû changer. La première fois nous avions la chambre double avec Sdb privative ce qui pouvait passer. En revanche la chambre avec sdb partage non. Les sanitaires sont sales et c’était très bruyant

Sanitaires sales Pas à côté de la seule rue vivante (si vous louez un deux roues, allez plutôt vers Champasak c’est plus sympa et au moins l’eau vous repose)à Pakse il n’y a rien à faire

Good

The hostel offers a nice place to sleep. The staff is helpful and the location is fairly close to everything. Compared to what I've heard this is a good option to consider when going to Pakse.

It is not really the place to be if you want to meet a lot of people. The mattress is not really clean, but at least no bedbugs.

Nice stay for a few nights in Pakse!

We got a private room with shared bathroom and the rooms were clean, spacious and had strong AC. The staff are really nice and helpful. The lobby area is nice as well. Walking distance to lots of food options!

The bathrooms could be a little cleaner, but they are shared so only so much you can do.

Just no

Ok location. Water refill station.

Staff weren’t very welcoming when we arrived. We were lead up to our room and the whole foyer area leading up to the room smelt of damp, dog and had a musty smell. When we got to our room - which was relatively clean, as was the bathroom - we noticed that the air-con unit was leaking on to the counter top and was also draining in to the bathroom. The bed sinks in the middle and is uncomfortable. The bathroom had a sink hanging off the wall with a sign telling us to not lean on it. The pressure from the taps was non-existent and when in use this awful drainage/sewage smell came from the plug hole. The private room that we stayed in needs updating and needs to be more warm or welcoming for guests. The foyer socialising area was dimly lit and had no atmosphere. It had a pool table, but the felt was damaged. In the photos there are pictures of tables where people socialise. These aren’t there anymore and have been moved to the back side room and have been replaced with cheaper looking tables. There is a massive air-con unit in the foyer but it isn’t in use. The whole room gets so stuffy and hot due to there being no air flow. The doors to the building had to be constantly kept shut for the owner’s fear that their dog would run away, (hence the smell of dog in the foyer). The outside seating area is covered but there are flies EVERYWHERE. Washing down the patio could easily solve this problem. Looking at the pictures of the hostel, you could see that at one point it was a buzzing place to be and was constantly busy - however this isn’t the case anymore. I wouldn’t recommend this place at all - unless a stop over is a must, but you can find better places to stay elsewhere. Really, I would just avoid Pakse altogether.

Good for a Quick Stop

Thai, the front staff person, was exceptionally kind and helpful. She helped to organize a tuktuk to take us around Bolaven Plateau for 2 days

AC did not work well in the room. Not comfortable temperature for sleeping. Eating options were a few blocks away.

There was the only one ( not vegetarian) choice if you wanted to order breakfast.

Pleasant

The staff were friendly and helpful.

The place looks nothing like the pictures, these must be from 10 years ago. When we turned up i thought the place had closed down as it was so dark and uninviting. The shared bathroom was dirty & there was never any toilet paper.

good place for a quick stay

The staff behind the reception were fantastic in helping us with everything that we needed. the room didn’t have a window to the outside but we weren’t staying long so that didn’t bother us. Shower was good.

We booked the bus to Thakhek with them. we found out from other tourists on the bus that we had paid £5 more per person than them, so in total we paid £10 more as we were two people. We thought this was a big difference. if you want to save some money then I recommend looking elsewhere for your onward bus tickets.

Great staff (young man at front desk), but otherwise run-down and not a giid vallue cimparex with Guesthouses in the are

The young man who runs the front desk is delightful and helpful. He /they make a good effort to provide a nice atmosphere in the common areas which are otherwise pretty dismal!

We had a private room on the third floor which was very basic, uncomfortable bed, noisy (roof overhang flapped in wind) and the shared bathroom was on second floor. Found MUCH better value at a nearby guesthouse.

It was a bit more expensive than most places in Laos, but you get what you pay for. Really nice and modern facilities and probably the most comfortable bed in Laos I slept in. One staff member speaks English really well and was very helpful.

All great. The staff is fantastic! They know the city well and were very helpful with tours, booking to the islands, and cold beer and good coffee. HUGE special mention to the night staff, who really were incredible on the night that we stayed. I would stay here again.

Shared bathroom for private rooms, but it was extremely clean!
