Receptionist was so obviously high on something (other guests confirmed), he tried to book me into a bed that was occupied, checking in took over 30 minutes as they kept sending us to the wrong beds, then after one night/day I return to find someone in my bed, the receptionist was confused, offered no solution, just mumbled excuses, I then demanded a refund, packed my stuff and left. appalling service, no keys, no security, I don’t think they have a clue who’s even checked in at any given t...
we were forced to go into a guesthouse down the road on the first night, as the room wasn’t ready. We then couldn’t check in to our proper room until 3pm the next day. We were given free breakfast tokens as compensation… which ended up being a slice of bread and 1 egg. Pool also looked terribly unclean, so even if we did manage to stay here properly, not sure we’d have ever used it.
The bathroom and pool were not clean. You could hear everything from outside while in the room. The staff seemed annoyed and were very unfriendly. I paid for a female dorm, but a man was staying there as well. After raising the issue with the staff, they did nothing to resolve it and instead came up with poor excuses. Breakfast was not tasteful and limited, as not everything was available. Will not come back here!
Sehr schmutzig. Es könnte schöner sein, würden sie einfach mal putzen. Überall ist Dreck. So schade weil echt eklig. Die Matratzen sind aus schaumstoff. Ein Nährboden für bettwanzen, weil sie den ganzen Schweiß aufsaugen. Kreuzschmerzen sind vorprogrammiert. Das Frühstück ist schlecht. Außer Pfannkuchen können Sie nix. Dafür war der Kontakt zu anderen Reisenden toll und das Personal tat sein Bestes. Ich würde trotzdem nicht mehr dort schlafen. Zu schmuddelig, keine Bettwäsche, kein...
It could be more beautiful if they just cleaned badly. Everywhere is dirty. So bad because really disgusting. The mattresses are made of foam. Ein Nährboden für bettwanzen, because they suck up all the Sweat. Back pain is pre-programmed. The breakfast is bad. Except Pfannkuchen you can't do anything. For this the contact with other travelers was great and the staff did their best. I wouldn't sleep there anyway. Too dirty, no bed linen, no handbags.
The bathrooms are not clean at all and the pool is quite dirty. They make up charges if you try and extend through them saying you have to get breakfast for a cheaper rate, but you can find better and cheaper in the morning market. DO NOT RENT A MOTORCYCLE/SCOOTER from them. They require passport and then hold you hostage for Kip. Pointing at scratches and dirt that were already there or just superficial. Then once you pay the company they pay off the staff in front of you
This hostel is quite overpriced for what you get. The bathrooms are not in great condition, and in the shower area there isn’t even a proper divider between two of the stalls, which makes it feel poorly designed and lacking privacy. The bunk beds are fairly average, and while the atmosphere is okay, it doesn’t really stand out. The staff experience also wasn’t great. The person at reception seemed unsure and ended up placing me in a different dorm room than the one I had booked. When I r...
Pool was super gross, nobody swam in it, my beds railing was rusted and fell off, rooms were very bare minimum and if it was cheap it would be fine but it’s more expensive and don’t feel like I got what I paid for
Die Mitarbeiter waren sehr unhöflich, wenig hilfsbereit und völlig verwirrt (wirkte als wären sie auf Substanzen). Im Badezimmer stand 10 cm hoch das Wasser und es wurde erst einen halben Tag später danach geguckt (um Mitternacht im Frauen-Dorm) und dann im übel riechenden Abfluss gestochert. Alles in allem war es halbwegs okay, ich würde es aber nicht nochmal buchen, es war nicht sonderlich sauber.
The staff were very rude, unhelpful and completely confused (acted as if they were on Substances). in the bathroom the water was 10 cm high and it was only checked half a day later (at Midnight in the Frauen-Dorm) and then in the foul smelling Abfluss gestochert. everything was half okay, but I wouldn't book it again, it wasn't particularly clean.
C’est la première fois en bientôt 4 mois que je laisse un avis plutôt négatif. Les douches / toilettes sont vraiment sales et les soirées jusqu’à 2h, impossible de dormir même avec mes bouchons d’oreille …
This is the first time in almost 4 months that I leave a rather negative review.The showers/toilets are really dirty and the parties until 2pm, impossible to sleep even with my earplugs ...
Not a fan of this hostel, beds were very uncomfortable, showers a bit grim, and a weird vibe to it

pretty good
Good location, I stayed in a private room that was next door. Not much going on at the hostel but you can book tours with them and the breakfast was made to order, choice of eggs and pancakes / toast
Love this hostel, such a easy going vibe, the front man on the desk is a legend, also beds are so comfy
A nice hostel! The pool was cool, breakfast was simple but location is very good mid in the center! :)

As instalações são boas, a piscina é um plus porque faz muito calor em Luang Prabang, mas poderiam ter mais cadeiras e espreguiçadeiras. O pequeno almoço podia ter mais variedade, mas o staff é muito simpático, divertido e prestável. O serviço de lavandaria é super rápido. O ambiente é bastante de festa mas maior parte dos jovens está em grupos e por isso é difícil de integrar, o que se torna desconfortável. Existe um restaurante a 2 passos do hostel que serve pratos típicos d...
The facilities are good, the pool is a plus because it is very hot in Luang Prabang, but we could have more chairs and armchairs. The breakfast could have more variety, but the staff is very friendly, fun and helpful. The laundry service is super fast. The atmosphere is quite festive but most of the young people are in groups and so it is difficult to integrate, or it becomes uncomfortable. There is a restaurant 2 steps from the hostel that serves delicious typical dishes.

The beds were comfortable and had a storage locker above the bed but not much other place for your bags so it felt cramped. Toilet door in the room was a struggle to get locked. More chill vibes than party. Showers were not the nicest here either with a lot of the over head ones being cracked and trickling down on you.

L'hostel est très bien situé à 5min à pied du night market. J'étais dans le dortoir pour femmes et une sbd dans notre chambre ce qui est top après la propreté dépend des personnes dans la chambre. La piscine était un vrai plus même si l'eau était un peu trouble... Ce qui nous a marqué négativement c'est le comportement du staff à l'accueil très (trop) à l'aise. Il s'est permis des commentaires sur le corps d'une amie, faisait des insinuations sur le fait de rester dans notre cham...
The hostel is very well located 5min walking from the night market. i was in the women's dormitory and a sbd in our room what is top after cleanliness depends on the people in the room. the pool was a real plus even if the water was a little cloudy... what struck us negatively was the behavior of the staff at the reception very (too) comfortable. he allowed himself comments about the body of a friend, made insinuations about staying in our room...
L’hostel est pas mal mais ne vaut pas son prix. Les deux premières nuits on a pas eu de AC dans la chambre parce que le mec de l’accueil a « oublié » de passer dans la chambre l’allumer. Il a essayé de me scam avec le poids de la laundry. Il y a une salle de bain/toilette par chambre qui devient vite sale. Mais le ménage est fait toutes les aprems. La piscine est cool mais tout à l’ombre à partir de 15h.
The hostel is not bad but not worth the price. The first two nights we didn't have air conditioning in the room because the receptionist forgot to pass the light in the room. He tried to scam me with the weight of the laundry. There is a bathroom/toilet per room that goes on sale quickly. But the cleaning is done every afternoon. The pool is cool but all in the shade from 3pm.
we were forced to go into a guesthouse down the road on the first night, as the room wasn’t ready. We then couldn’t check in to our proper room until 3pm the next day.

Great hostel, great Staff and great atmosphere. Breakfast was pretty standard, but it was included so I still think it’s a good deal! The rooms were clean and comfy , nothing to complain about . The pool was a great touch as well and a nice social area to hang around ! Recommend!
Staff started out being friendly but unfortunately that changed. Also, I asked several times to extend my stay with one night and rhey kept saying "we don't know if we have availability, come back later". Fair enough, that's alright of course. when I asked the third time and then got told they didn't have any beds so I booked in elsewhere. Ten(!) minutes later I passed through reception and overhead how three people just got told they could extend.They easily could've found me by the pool.

Left my towel to dry on the balcony, came back later on and it had been taken. Asked the staff member he just shrugged his shoulders as if it was a regular thing
Pas de gel à disposition ni de claquettes pour la douche
No gel available or tapes for the shower
