I have book and paid for the bus tickets early in the morning but i get the last seat because the staffs do not go the pick up the tickets at the bus service counter. Besides, i have book the room with breakfast through internet (USD 20). However, the staffs said that i cant get the breakfast as booked because they said that my booking is not exceed USD 25. I feel like cheated since they do not mention in the website!! And on my booking reference, there is stated that \"room with breakfast\".

Staff was helpful in organizing a day trip and taxi to the airport but their English could have been better. Small and charming place, but not particularly social. Good location in the old town a short walk from the night markets and temples/palace

When we arrived the hostel had given our room to someone else. The reception staff didn't speak English, so gave us no explanation or apology. We had to find our own alternative accommodation. The place looked nice, but they didn't honour our booking.

It's a good hostel. It's near the Mekong river. Normally hostels near the river are more expensive. The price of this hostel is relatively cheaper within the area. The boy at the reception speaks a little bit english. He is friendly and smiles when he does not understand. The breakfast is okay. There are restaurants around and easy to get to the sights. They offer bike renting and laundry services. It's very quiet and not that fun. It's comfortable to sit in the chair and to enjoy the sunshine.

Nice staff, but very limited English. I got the impression that their reluctance to say no led them to make unrealistic promises. Or maybe they are just confused. We had reserved ten nights, but they had us down for only two nights, and not in the room wecheck poked. We we happy to check out after two nights because the room had hardly any natural light and a mildew problem. We found a very. Ice place for the same price half a block away.
