"Satisfactory sleeping conditions at Anoulack khen Lao Hotel. 2 separate blocks with reception and breakfast at the main block. Because it was Pi Mai, the Lao New Year, service was minimal. I suggest avoid the Lao New year period as several eating places are closed for 3 to 5 days. We had our own transport and travel around the town was easy."

"It's quiet!!!! It's so quiet.... Other places are noisy because of people, but it's nice because there are no noisy people!!!!"

"The hotel was a bit far from the center but the air conditioning and heat was perfect!"

"We are a widely travelled couple in our 50's and recommend Pukyo for travelers of all ages. The owners are a Belgian and Lao couple who live next door and their help, service and hospitality is unbelievable. David drove us to and from the airport as well as to an interesting silk farm. We got to know his daughters and he cooked breakfast for us and a delicious curry for dinner. Sakhone took us on an all day tour of the highlights of the areas including three Plain of Jars sites. She is so knowledgable, a good driver and is fun to hang out with. The rooms are clean and basic with some homey touches. The bed was comfortable and it was pretty quiet. Phonsavanh is not an easy place to get to (a short flight is best) but it is worth it as this is an interesting area of Laos to go to after you have visited Luang Prabang, Vang Vieng and Vientiane - it has a lot of important history. "

"Very basic."
