Overall decent value hotel. It's probably the best option if you're looking for one night before crossing over to Laos - likely via a cruise down the Mekong river as we did. The hotel restaurant is a tad pricey, but it does have a very nice setting over looking the Mekong River. The hotel did offer King sized beds, which is a definite plus. However, even though most Asian beds are rather hard, this one seemed extra concrete-like. For one night, it was no biggie, but for multiple nights, it might be an issue. The town itself is only so much of a draw, so this location is probably as good as any other hotel. The front desk staff's English was spotty at times, but they were always friendly.
