Little Friendly House With Pool

Just shutters on windows with no glass or mosquito nets so couldn’t open windows to see outside without risk of heat and mosquitoes

No glass window in the room so we had to constantly keep the shutters closed and therefore the room was quite dark.
However it didn't bother us that much.

There wasn’t much not to like, I would suggest updating the pool area as some of the sun loungers are broken

Place is outdated and feels a bit like an asylum. There is nothing up on the walls in the rooms or in the hallways (the city is know for it's art for heaven sake) and it is in desperate need of a paint job. I know this property is cheap for Luang Prabang but it is one of the most expensive accommodations in 2 months in SE Asia and the worst stay we had.

AC barely worked, beds are super uncomfortable, lighting in the room is awful, florescent and no lamp. The woman making breakfast treated us like we were the bane of her existence. One morning the mechanic shop next door had a massive amount of smoke billowing into our accommodation and we woke up thinking the building was on fire. We were told they were cooking but it smelled absolutely toxic.

We asked to book transportation to the train station that cost as much as the train ticket. We walked up the street to book our own tuk tuk for half the price. We organized a motorbike through the hotel that was really old and falling apart. They gave it to us with an empty tank, the owner told us to put 60,000 kip in it to go to Kuang Si and gave we it back with almost a whole tank.

A little TLC would go a long way

There could be more sun beds or even chairs around the pool.
We were downstairs right next to reception and we could hear people coming in and out and talking all through the early mornings.
Again, we could hear the breakfast starting in the morning at 7am and also could smell it!
There is no glass in the windows so felt like we couldn’t open them because we didn’t want bugs coming in.
The bathroom doesn’t drain well after the shower

It was filthy - the room especially down the side of the bed and the bathroom. We had to keep the fan on to reduce the smell which was covered in dust. The hotel as a whole was also filthy including reception. The shower head was broken so you had to hold it. The room was incredibly dark with a window that opens on to an alley where they hang washing. Feel bad leaving negative feedback as the owners are nice but unfortunately it was so dirty we would not return. There are places in the area offering more for the same price.

The windows have no glass or mosquito nets, so you have to keep the shutters closed.
