Was such a great place to stay. Bathroom facilities were fine, pool was clean and available. The manager (Chang) was also welcoming people to chillao and offering free whiskey to everyone during happy hour. I stayed in the 7 bed dorm and made some really good friends there. The workers and Chang also make it very easy to visit all the sights around Van vieng! Do recommend for future solo travelers!

Cold deep swimming pool. Free whisky during happy (2) hours. Good breakfast. Reasonable price tuk-tuk from bus station outside town. Vang Vieng is a full on adventure traveller town. A good place
