Mixok Guesthouse

The location is brilliant, although it’s situated on a main road so wherever you are in the guesthouse yo can hear the traffic. Avoid the front rooms which overlook the street as the traffic noise is unbearable. It’s an extremely basic guesthouse but it’s quite cheap for Vientiane , 130,000 for a double room. The lobby is nice, they have a cafeteria and seating but the rooms really need renovating. No toiletries or soap supplied. WiFi is touch in the rooms and go but works well in the lobby. They offer a decent next day laundry service @10,000 kip a kilogram. Staff are fairly friendly but English is limited. No elevator of course. They have cctv security so it’s secure in that respect. If you can afford to pay several dollars more a night you can get a lot better hotel but if you’re on a tight budget this isn’t a bad option for a night or two. The Mixok inn 50 meters down the road is no longer the same business; they are now separated. You’ll need to ask front desk if you want your room cleaning. I was there 3 nights and it wasn’t cleaned but I was alone in a double room so it was okay. And I am environmentally conscious so I don’t think it’s necessary to change the towels everyday.

Everything deserved the price but the wifi is bad and thing to be careful is if you choose to buy traveling ticket make sure it comes on time because I have bought a bus ticket, and the pick up was late for an hour.

Good location to stay at Vientiane.

Fronts onto an extremely busy road. Traffic noise continues very late and starts very early. Pokey bathroom. Was able to wash my hands and feet at the same time due to the substantial leakage from the hand basin falling onto my feet. Breakfast was good, but was served at the Mixok Inn down the road. We actually booked in there for a night following our one night stay at the guesthouse. It was marginally better, but substantially cheaper for having paid them direct. Disappointing all round, excepting the reception staff who were friendly and helpful.

Friendly staff, good clean room, comfy bed & pillows. Breakfast was tasty, I will be back, highly recommend this place :-)

Good guys up front, clean, good location, back room was quiet, good for a cheap one

trying to be friendly as was. but all an act. the place was a dum.

Always feel good to come back to Vientiane and knowing that i will stay at mixok... Nice room, clean, friendly staff.

Would not want to spend too long here. Quite expensive for what you get. }

This guesthouse is too cheap but not comfortable. The stair is too narrow and door locker doesn't look safety. The facility is too old. But Air-conditioner and water heater were working well. Staffs were kind but services were terrible. One staff gave wrong information, it made me confused. You can book a bus to other city in reception, but it was more expensive than travel agent near the guest house. If u want the cheapest room only for sleeping, it might be good. Because it is the cheapest one in Vientiane.

Valuable with the money that paid for.Staffs are helpful.

Good location and average facilities for your price.

Checked in and didn't have the booking. Everything was old and dirty. They didn't even have business card with address. The only thing good was the breakfast options that wasn't in the property.

breakfast was in another hotel, light in the corridor did not work, shower head to low and loose, drains stank the room out and the traffic noise was unbearable

Room was good value in a central location.you can walk everywhere.you can even walk to central bus station and for 6000 kip take #14 bus to friendship bridge,beerlao brewery or Buddha park.free breakfast I had banana pancakes for the 3 days I was there.only downsides were a pretty dark room #206 and neighbors dog barking at night.i would stay here again

Unfortunenately had to leave earlier (two days) than plneed and expected. Was called away and then met with the hotel policy, so in this respect it is better not to book too many days in advance because the hotel policy does not cater for reinbursements but possibly only for rescheduling! (awaiting approval)

Very good location and good value for money

When I get to this guesthouse , front staffs said that today no room. They disn't understand all of booking. They had me waiting for 30min and took me to other guesthouse.
