"Good value hotel, which needs a little updating but in general good. Rooms are good size and hotel location central to many attractions. Have stayed in this hotel a number of times and would continue to use if the price doesn't rise as there are now many new hotels now in Vientiane at just a few dollars more."

"Pay attention if you want to rent a car through the hotel.
The breakfast is really so so.
They said offering free airport pick-up service, but I called several times (the last time even after my arrival at the airport !!) to finally meet their car."
