This guesthouse shines on service. Airport transfer and pickup were a breeze. They take the time to nicely greet you and check you in, giving you all the details. Daily shuttle in and out of main area of town is great. The pool was well kept and quiet (though, like so many in south east Asia, very cold). We had a river view bungalow. It was mostly clean, as much so as wooden rooms like these with gaps in the wall can be. But they provide mosquito nets. No TV. Breakfast is good and plenty with various options. If you want a break, feel free to use their kitchen (cashew chicken gets two thumbs up and yellow curry was good too). It is fresh and on probably better for the price than anything you will get a food stall in town for same cost. Dinner for three was about $12 USD. They do not advertise it, but they were glad to use their daily shuttle to drop us at our next guesthouse in Luang Prabang. I found I had forgotten my Nalgene water bottle in the mini fridge and called them to ask about it, and they brought it on the shuttle so I could pick it up that evening when they dropped hotel guests in the city. That was HIGHLY appreciated. They provide one bottle of drinking water per guest, and have a drinking water refill station.
The beds were ok - not great but not the worst in SEA. We had a triple room, a king bed and two singles. The singles were incredibly soft to the point it felt like you might roll off and the king was a bit too hard. Goldilocks again :) Thanks Thonbay!
