    Nothing. The road's dusty, but they are constantly cleaning the property.

    I'd give it an 11. This place is one of the best I've ever stayed at.

    The outside is made of tiles so when it rains it's very slippery and I slipped and cut my foot. There are absolutely no signs to warn of slippery surface- I think this is very dangerous but it seems to be a universal thing (at least in Laos and Thailand) that they don't put signs to warn of hazardous areas like tiled floors near wet areas like pools or bathrooms. The cleaning ladies were very insistent on cleaning the room- even if that means waking you up by repeatedly knocking and shouting to wake you up. I ignored them the first day because they woke me up and I wanted a lie in and then they decided to just enter my room with their key anyway because I didn't answer. Felt like an invasion of privacy. Maybe they could have those things to put on the door to say "do not disturb" should a guest not want to be disturbed in the morning. I've also experienced this in other places in Thailand so I think it's more of cultural thing I guess?

    Really nice place, felt like a hotel, free breakfast was really good, nice pool area

    we stayed here for 2 weeks but nothing happened, you can book tours through the hotel with reasonable prices, the staff were very enthusiastic and welcoming when they met us. I forgot my shoes and the owner of the hostel helped me send them to LuangPraBang for free. thank you all very much for giving us a very useful trip.

    Could be a bit noisy in the hallway early morning and late at night, but didn't bother us at all.

    This is one of the best hostels we have stayed in on our travels across Asia. Staff are so friendly and helpful, the place is so clean and the pool was beautiful. It has mountain views, lots of sunshine and sunloungers. Pool table, Bar and nice little pool bar/restaurant, this has a pool table too. Breakfast was great and cooked to order. Booked our train tickets at reception, they were so helpful too.

    Good location, great breakfast, stunning pool with a view, lovely and helpful staff. The hostel offers a variety of day trips and transport transfers so it’s easy to book with them. You can also hire a scooter for 150k for a day. Conveniently located and comfortable. Highly recommend.

    Nothing in particular. Like I mentioned, everything is basic — the room could be bigger, the pool could be cleaner, and the breakfast could be better. But considering the price, it's all good

    "Good location, approximately a 5–10 minute walk from restaurants, bars, and the main street. Friendly staff. Hotel rooms are small, and the breakfast is basic but acceptable. They also offer various tours and laundry services at nearly the same prices as in the city.
