Luang Namtha Homestays

Sorry to give a bad review but my room was dark, dirty and smelled bad. The water would not drain away in the wet room shower, leaving a pool of water in the bathroom and the smell was very bad. I only paid 400 Baht though as I just wanted a place to rest overnight. The more expensive rooms are likely much better. One concern is that I found someone else's medicine in my bed in the morning when I was checking for items I left, so I'm a bit concerned that maybe the sheets weren't changed from the last guest..but I'm hopefully completely wrong about that. The walls are very thin and the doors heavy. I could hear what the next room was saying and they were in and out of the room constantly, banging the door each time (not the hotel fault, but if the building wasn't so old, it wouldn't be so noisy). It does have off-street parking though (but not covered), which put my mind at ease about parking my bike.

The hotel is located in the urban area, and the traffic is acceptable. Basically, taxis or tuk-tuks are used for transportation. It is about 500-600 meters away from the urban bus station. The living functions are acceptable.

The owner is super-helpful and speaks good english. Our first stay first room was fine. Our second stay second room had poor screens and we were bitten to death. The restaurant is nothing impressive, don't bother with espresso drinks. In conclusion, the place is average super-cheap Laos, but you always have to check screens, A/C, and for towels. I would have given it three stars but the owner is super-accommodating (e.g. allowed us to rent bicycles for 1/2 day not normally offered). PLEASE NOTE you can avoid plastic pollution by refilling from cooler at checkin desk and NOT using the plastic water bottles provided in room.
