At first the location appears poor but it's a short walk to decent restaurants and bars.Also habdy for laundries. Nice quiet street. Well furnished rooms and lobby. Good breakfast esp if you get the baguettes just as they arrive from the bakery. seems to be used by 'Explore' for their group tours.

Arriving at the airport at Vientiane we had to go through passport control and …
