Had a great time.
I enjoyed almost everything of this hostel. Most of all, the staff: all of them always gentle and helpfull. The dormitory well organized with comfortable beds. Breakfast vary and good and coffee and tea always there, ready to be prepared with hot water. Comfortable common space in and out the structure. Just two step from the hostel e super market....for low budget meal!!!

Clean, good location, service lacking
I only stayed for one night but the hostel was clean and the rooms were comfortable. The hotels website said there was free water but when I asked where I could fill my water bottle they said they had bottle water for sale. I try to never buy and use plastic bottles so i was a little disappointed in this. There is hot water available for coffee though so i just filled with this and then put my water bottle in the fridge that is available for use. Also when I checked in I saw them give 2 other people checking in towels but when I asked for one they said there would be a deposit, as I was only staying for one night I didn't bother because I was leaving in the morning and didn't want to bother with getting a deposit back. They also do have an included breakfast in the morning, but I had to leave before it was available. I did ask the day before when I checked in if I could get it to go before my bus came at 8am and they said no problem they would have it ready for me. When I went down at 7:30 the next morning they did not have it nor seem to know what I was talking about. I asked then if I could get it and they said yes, 8am rolled around and still no breakfast. I ordered it again and said I would really appreciate it to go if I could and they said sure 2 minutes. At 8:15 when my bus showed up I still had no breakfast. So not the end of the world but a little irritating since I had been asking for 45 minutes, and the day before and assured it was no problem.

Jade. I know your time for breakfast was valuable and you were disappointed and inconvenienced. Staff normally starts preparing breakfast at 7:30. As for towels, we stopped charging deposits. Now we have the honor system for them. Lockers are the only thing that need a deposit now. About the water. We are now in the process of finding a way to have less plastic use to help save the environment. After our new bathrooms and Coffee shop additions are finished later this week, we will focus on this ;-)

Great Party Hostel
Very clean and right in the center of town. Can get noisy at night, but with ear plugs I had no trouble sleeping. The bar is really expensive though, so beware.

Hi, we have no bar here. But we do have a lovely Coffee bar with the best Espresso and Lao coffee. The only noise we have is the Roosters crowing in the morning. All guest have to be quiet after 9pm in the rooms. We have an area downstairs or outside seating to chill and hangout after hours. Glad you liked your stay.

Budget, Simple, Can be improved more
The dorm is simple and budget. Cleanliness is acceptable. Staff is helpful and friendly. There included simple breakfast every morning. Suggest to add on more bathroom, as now there is 2 only which is not enough for so many guests. The water pressure for water heater is very bad and slow. Hope to make it better. The bed hope can make it with full/complete curtain, which some bed have some don't have and some is too short. The lamp on the bed is spoilt too.

앱보단 현장결제가 저렴해요..전 앱으로 해서 돈이 조금 더 들었네요..ㅋ 호스텔 내에서 공항 툭툭이나 꽝시폭포 투어를 시내 투어사와 같은 가격으로 하고 있어서 편했어요 ! 침대도 넓고,대신 사람수에 비해 화장실은 좀 적은 느낌? 아침은 안 먹어봤는데 조식도 나와요!

Os meninos são uma gracinha. O lugar e as camas são bem limpas. Nunca falta papel higienico como falta em outros lugares. Consegui fechar o transporte para o aeroporto e o passeio das cachoeiras no proprio hostel. Barato e ainda tem um cafe da manhã simples. A localização é ótima.

Yes, we make it our mission to fill the Shower soap and Bathroom rolls daily. We know what it's like to be in the shower or on the toilet and have no soap or paper. I'm happy you enjoyed you stay. Many wonderful changes happening here, Hope you visit us again!

水回りが綺麗になれば問題なし！
スタッフは（若い男の子しかいなくて少し驚いたが）とても親切で、愛想も良い。チェックイン前にシャワーも浴びさせてくれた。朝食付きでランドリーサービスもある。アクセスもいい。ベッドも下段にはカーテンもあり快適。部屋のクーラーが強くて少し寒かったが…。タオルも貸してもらえた。しかし、水回りが汚かったのが残念。トイレ、シャワー、洗面台が綺麗だったらわりと問題のないホテルだった。洗面台はすぐに詰まって使えなくなっていた。

Hi Yukiko, I'm happy that you enjoyed your stay and our incredible staff! The bathrooms and sinks sometimes have issues due to the fact of people ignoring our signs and flushing toilet paper down the toilets and not using the bins for it. We now are adding 3 new showers with toilets. So a total of 6 Showers and 7 Toilets. They are being cleaned twice daily now. So no messy bathrooms :-)

조용히 보낼 여행자를 위한
야시장에서 멀지 않지만 반대편에 있어 조용하고 위생, 청결 상태도 나름 괜찮습니다. 조식은 평범했고 서양 여행자가 많으나 파티분위기가 아니기 때문에 조용히 지낼 사람들에게 좋겠습니다. 유토피아와 가까움
