Comfortable and spacious bunks, with a cupboard! (All female dorm). Good and clean bathrooms separate to the toilets. Really cute cafe where you get a free coffee/tea/matcha every night you’re there! Good location too. Not much of a social atmosphere and no advertised activities.

Had a great time here, the hostel is super cute and social. They were really helpful in booking our buses for us and called to make sure there was aircon and toilets on the bus. Lovely staff, good coffee, and yum free breakfast would recommend !

BED BUGS!! and handled badly. I found & killed one, but staff dismissed it, saying it must’ve come from elsewhere and questioning why I didn’t report it sooner—at 2am, with no staff around. They just vacuumed & gave the same bed to someone else that day. I also booked a sleeper bus with pickup, but after waiting 30 mins, I found out it wasn’t included & had to pay extra $10 for a taxi. No one informed me, if I didn’t question it, I would’ve missed my bus. Overall, poor service & extr...

Nice hostel for a few nights (I stayed 2) I liked that the beds were spacious, the toilets were kept clean, staff were there for you but didn’t always seem very enthusiastic but I don’t judge haha, the cafe was nice and I appreciated the daily free drink. When I was there the bathroom sinks had a bad smell but for me wasn’t a big deal. Not really a sociable place although there are 2 common areas plus the cafe. Overall is not spectacular but decent place to stay and I was happy there!

Mooi, lekkere koffie, handige bediendeling. Minpuntje: hygiëne in de wc en gebrek aan wc -papier.

Nice for a short stay in Vientiane, super helpful staff! A bit disappointed by the private room, really plain. Lots of mosquitoes as well!

Eins der besten Hostels in dem wir bisher waren! Der 1920s Barn Style im Eingangsbereich und Café ist mega cool umgesetzt. Wir haben je ein Freigetränk im Café erhalten. Es gibt Frühstück in einer Küche, dass man sich aber selbst zusammenstellen kann/muss. Die Betten sind schon eher hart, dafür ist alles sehr sauber, die Türen sind immer geschlossen und abschliessbar, man kann den Rucksack gut einschliessen (eigenes Schloss nötig). Hier kann man auch easy das obere Stockbett habe.

A great hostel with a unique old-time feel in central Vientiane. The highlight of my stay has to be the attached cafe (included breakfast), and the amazing upstairs social area. The dorm rooms themselves were decent and clean, however unfortunately as the bathroom area is very open there were a lot of mosquitos. Not sure how to fix this, but maybe some netting over windows. Bar this, good hostel and friendly staff!

Loved my stay here! The rooms were kept nice and cool the AC and fans on. Beds were comfortable with lots of space, and the vibe in the main room/cafe was just perfectly relaxing. Also a free drink per day, was such a bonus! Laundry was very affordable to do there (20/kg), and my clothes came back perfectly, and the key cards into the rooms made me feel very safe. I also liked how the mixed dorms and female dorms were on separate floors. Will definitely stay again in the future!

Super vriendelijke eigenaren! Fijn dat je zelf je ontbijtje kan maken en je krijgt een gratis drankje uit het cafe. Kamers waren erg schoon alleen wat harde bedden. Zeker een aanrader!

it's a nice quite hostel. Close to all the main sightseeing places and 7/11. You could make your own breakfast which was nice and get a free coffee. it's not a very social hostel but chill.

Staff were so friendly, helped me book tours,etc. Free cafe drinks with nights stay. Dorms are huge but you don’t feel cramped. The bunks are so big you can fit the whole 50L bag on the bench with you by the mattress. Made for changing and packing really easy. Great location, short walk to most places.

I really really loved this hostel, i wish i stayed longer. The location is good, the whole vibe is 1920 - even the music and the clothes! You can get 1 free drink per day, the bed is big and the locker is right next to the bed. Everything was very clean and i felt very safe!!☀️
