Exceeded my expectations
Pros:

Very good experience, I got to Vang Vieng quite late and was in need of a good room. The person who engaged with me was extremely helpful and patient, and allowed me to go through all of the rooms and switch rooms, even after I moved in. The place is also a restaurant, so expect a lot of visitors during the day. Needless to say, the views are amazing. As a plus, the scooter I got from the owner was the best I've had in Asia so far. Good food, if you ask for a great room, you'll get it (assuming they are free). Some of the rooms have amazing views :-)

P.S. I took these pictures from my room (although, the first one via drone, slightly to the EAST).

Cons:

Bungalows are unavailable, it would be a good idea to remove that offer from the booking servcies.

Mooie lokatie maar let op dat je de kamer krijgt die je boekt
Pros:

Mooie lokatie, goede mountainbike te huren, redelijk ontbijt.

Cons:

Moesten echt moeite doen om onze kamer van 25m2 te krijgen. We kregen eerst 2 veel mindere kamer en na lang praten kregen we de juiste. op de bustickets probeerden ze ook een extra toeslag te krijgen.

Nie wieder! Sehr enttäuschend
Pros:

Man hat einen sehr schönen Sonnenuntergang vom Cafe aus. Gerade zum Sonnenuntergang sind viele Heißluftballons in der Luft.
Das Bett war bequem. Abholung von der Zugstation über WhatsApp für 100.000 kip leicht buchbar.

Cons:

Das Hotel war anscheinend überbucht, daher wurde uns ein Zimmerupdate nach 1 Nacht angeboten. Was aber nicht statt fand. Wir waren echt enttäuscht über unser kleines, dunkles Zimmer. Die Räume sind mit Holzbretter abgetrennt. Man hört jeden Schritt oder jedes noch so kleine Geräusch durch die Zimmer. Mir schien sogar nachts durch die Holzritzen Licht ins Gesicht. Die 2 Gemeinschaftsbadezimmer waren ekelhaft. Beim zähneputzen läuft alles aus dem Abfluss vor deine Füße runter. Der Abfluss war sogar am 1 Tag verstopft und beim duschen stand man knöcheltief im Dreckwasser. Das kann man ruhig öfter mal säubern! Ab morgens wir das Cafe von Chinesischen Touristenwellen überflutet. Das ist ein Gewusel und eine Lautstärke am Morgen. Unglaublich. Zum Frühstück kann man wählen zwischen toast mit Marmelade, spiegelei oder Omelett, was sehr lieblos gemacht wird. Obwohl es ein Cafe ist, bekommt man nur Kaffee als Fertigpäkchen. Die Bilder, Hotelbeschreibung und Preisleistung passen absolut nicht überein! Die Bungalows in den Bildern sind komplett verfallen! Nicht nutzbar, denoch werden sie angeboten.

A fuir, chambre minuscule, arnaqué sur le prix
Pros:

Rien à part l'emplacement

Cons:

On nous a arnaqué sur le prix (change bath en lak) pour un placard minuscule au double du prix annoncé par booking. A fuir

Très décevant
Pros:

L'emplacement.

Cons:

Les salles de bain et les toilettes ne sont pas nettoyées. C'est sale, ça pue.
Il n'y a pas de boissons comprises dans le petit déjeuner qui d'ailleurs n'est vraiment pas très varié. Vaut mieux aller manger ailleurs.
Tu paies plus cher en passant directement par eux que par Booking..

Not as described
Pros:

Location. Coffee was nice (but expensive). Big bathroom (but was mouldy)

Cons:

Tourist trap cafe above rooms so very noisy. Got given the wrong room even tho we paid for a more expensive one (did get swapped after asking). Owner seemed weird the fact we were sharing a bed, he double checked we didn’t want two singles, which felt very awkward. The bungalows are completely abandoned yet still advertised. The staff were quite rude. Music really loud even tho it’s just a cafe. Food was very expensive we didn’t bother ordering any. Our room smelt damp and there was a lot of mould in bathroom.
