Vang Vieng is a paradise for outdoor lovers. Vang Vieng is a small town, more than 2 or 3 kilometers away from the high-speed rail station, and you can walk to almost everywhere. AD Soksay guesthouse does not face the river or the street. The main entrance of the courtyard is in an alley next to the main street, which is very quiet. It is very convenient to take a car to eat on the main street. Looking at the dark road at night is a different scene during the day. It's not far from the river. Just a five-minute walk across the pedestrian street is the iron bridge over the Nansong River. Very close to the night market, three minutes away. There is a large open space at the back door of the B&B, and parking is very convenient. Although there is no scenery and only distant mountains can be seen, the color of the sky is very beautiful in the evening. Laos is equivalent to China in the 1970s and 1980s, and most of the hotels have a sense of age. Only a few hotels in the town are newly built, while the others are renovated residential buildings.
The rooms are very large, with more than 20 square meters. There is no decoration or design, and the furniture is not new and very inconspicuous. The water heater in the bathroom is a simple instant-heat type like most hotels. Apart from the racks for suitcases and clothes and the large bed, the room still has a lot of space. Although the room is simple, it is very hygienic. It is not damp and free of ants and mosquitoes. I saw that the Laotian aunt was very serious when cleaning. There was not a single hair on the floor. The aunt was barefoot when she entered the building to clean. She would not change her habits just because the guests were wearing shoes. The bed was very wide and the bedding was very good. Neat, the bath towels are fluffy and clean. The mattress has two layers, with a thick latex pad on top. It is very comfortable and I slept very well!
The price-performance ratio is very high. The bed price in the youth hostel here is really great to be able to live in a large single room of more than 20 square meters. You can't find this price in the center of the town. The cheapest room in town.
The courtyard is very ordinary. If it weren't for the B&B sign at the door, I would have thought it was a rural courtyard of a Laotian house. The courtyard is composed of two double-story buildings adjacent to each other. There are ten rooms and two stairs. So even if the house is full, you can't feel the presence of neighbors. In the early morning and evening, you can see paragliders and hot air balloons flying in the sky in the public area on the second floor. There is a huge tea table in the yard. It is very cool to enjoy the breeze downstairs when you are free.
It's safe here! The boss is from Sichuan, he is very Buddhist and very patient. In addition to live broadcasting clips of his work every day on a certain video, he also chats and answers questions with guests from all over the world. When I stayed there, there were guests from Europe, America, France, Korea and Japan, plus guests from China, there were guests from five countries in total. The Japanese girl I met came back to live in Thailand for a long time, which shows the charm of the boss. The boss is quite a fan, and some of his regular guests are his friends. When you meet them in the yard, you will chat with them enthusiastically, recommend nearby places to visit, and help them clear mines. It is an inn and B&B that is very suitable for backpackers, and also suitable for people who are worried about safety and don't understand the language.
If you have hotel requirements, it is not recommended to stay at Amari Hotel Chain directly to avoid disappointment. After all, Laos is underdeveloped, and prices are set here. Just benchmark it against domestic urban hotels.
