We stayed at little hostel crossing the Thailand border into Laos for one night before we caught the slow boat. It was clean, the staff were friendly and the beds were excellent. The best night sleep we had in weeks. It was quiet and the perfect location, although there is not much going on in Huayxin.
CanadaNoke is great! She is caring, informative and helpful. I forgot a piece of my gear there and she found it, remembered where I was going and arranged for another backpacker to bring it to me.
IsraelThe room was clean, and the shower and toilet were clean as well. The lady who worked in reception was very nice and helped us purchase tickets to the slow boat in a fair price. Very close to the gibbon experience.
IsraelGreat accommodations for an overnight stay - very clean and owner is incredibly friendly (she also speaks excellent English). Communication before arrival was very helpful, saved me money when bargaining for tuk tuk from bus station because I was given expected cost which was over half what I was initially offered. Restaurant next door had amazing food for dinner. This hostel is very close to pier and they had the best prices for slow boat. I heard a lot of not so great things from people on the slow boat about where they stayed so I was very happy that I booked here.
United States of AmericaStaff was really friendly and helpful. It was a great location
United States of AmericaThe staff is incredible! Very nice and helpful Incredible value
United States of AmericaYoung lady at Reception was friendly, helpful and diligent. She speaks English very well, and let me move in before checkin time. Just 1km walk to Slow Boat Pier. I thoroughly agree with the dorm aircon being switched off during the day time. (just used for sleeping time) OK - it's quite basic designed hostel - but you're not paying Hotel Shangri-La prices!
AustraliaAmazing Staff. Amor is such a wonderful help. She is awesome
United States of AmericaThe woman at the desk was so sweet and kind. And it was a great location
United States of AmericaThe hostel was very comfortable. Comfy beds, privacy curtains, AC. Amor, the receptionist was AMAZING. Very genuinely kind and informative.
