TT Hostel

Nice place to stay, location next to main sightseeing, room with could be loud during night due traffic outside

it was an okay hostel with not much… interesting layout where all the showers are on the first floor and dorms on the upper floors. rooms are massive with the girl’s section located in the sub-room. beds are really hard but they’re decent. towels are available for 15,000 kip. not much to do near the hostel but the night market is within 10 min walk! wifi is not always strong but its ok

It is not completedly perfect but about good and affordable for solo traveler

I arrived Vientiane by train. There were two buses picking up passengers opposite the front of the station. One was a minibus going to the night market (30k kips) and the other was a public bus going to Vientiane Central Bus Station (25k kips). The minbus going to the night market was full so I took the one going to the Central Bus Station. On checking Google maps, the one going to the night market is the correct transportation to take. It was close to 9pm when I arrived at the bus station. Note that the reception closes at 10pm. I took a tuk tuk at 50k kips (bargained from 100 kips). The fare was 30k kips when I took a car from the hostel back to the Bus Station to catch Bus 12 to Vientiane (Khamsavath) train station. Do note that this is a different train station from the station I'd arrived from. That station is used by the Laos-China train, while Khamsavath station is used by the Laos-Thai train. The above described the location of the hostel in relation to the train stations and Central Bus Station. As for the 3rd floor room (was it 2nd?? well, it was at the highest floor) that I was assigned, there is space enough for 6 beds (3 double deckers). My beddings were spotlessly clean. The aircon worked perfectly. The staff who had checked me in helped with my luggage, which was much appreciated. He pointed out to me the facilities too. The bathroom cubicles and toilets are on the ground floor. They are clean. The bathroom cubicle i had used were without showergel/soap or shampoo. I did not check the other cubicles. The common area is behind the reception on the groundfloor. It is air-conditioned and has comfortable seats. There is a water dispenser which dispenses cold water. Again, much appreciated. In a folder on a desk opposite the reception desk contains information on transportation, fares and public bus schedules. Most useful! The owner (i assumed he is) had kindly helped me call a car to the central station. He went out in the heat to look out for the car and bode me farewell. It is personal touches like this that warms the heart. Yes, it is a hostel I would recommend. The 2 attached pictures were information displayed on the walls of the common area which i found useful.

Central location, spotless environment, unbeatable price and incredibly helpful staff – what more could you ask for? I highly recommend this hotel/hostel!

Place was good, nice environment and lovely staff. downside are the mozzies, but this is everywhere in SEA
