    Great location, close to many attractions and within walking distance. The breakfast options were fantastic, with a wide variety to choose from. The rooftop terrace was a nice place to relax and unwind, with a pool table and comfortable seating.

    The lockers provided were too small, which was inconvenient for storing belongings securely. The cleanliness of the washrooms could have been better.

    The price was very reasonable for what was offered. The breakfast selection was great, with a variety of dishes to choose from. The staff was friendly and helpful, especially when it came to purchasing tickets for transportation. The location was convenient, being close to popular attractions and local food options. The hostel had a unique rooftop terrace that served as a social area, complete with a pool table and music streaming capabilities.

    The cleanliness of the hostel wasn't the best, and it was noticeable. The mixed room I stayed in was quite small and a bit uncomfortable to maneuver in and out of.

    The room was comfortable and clean, and I loved the rooftop chill area for socializing. The staff were laid back and accommodating, and the location was convenient for exploring the town and river.

    The hotel breakfast menu could have been better if it had longer hours.

    I got great value for my money at Vongprachan Backpackers in LP. The room was comfortable, the location was perfect, and the staff treated me very well.

    If I had to suggest one improvement for breakfast choices, it would be to upgrade the coffee.

    We got great value for our money at Vongprachan Backpackers. The room was amazing, especially the shower. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the night market and river. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, making our stay even better. Highly recommend to anyone visiting.

    The breakfast experience could have been improved with a more accurate menu description. Although the breakfast was delicious, it would be better if the sandwich actually had chicken like it said on the sign.

    We had a great time at the hostel! The beds were comfortable and the location was fantastic. We loved hanging out on the rooftop terrace, playing pool and enjoying the chill-out area. The breakfast options were delicious and we always had toilet paper in the bathrooms. The lockers in the dorm were also handy for storing our belongings. we had a wonderful stay.

    One drawback was that the AC wasn't working properly, but it wasn't a big issue for us since it was cool outside at night. The noisy door in the dorm could be a bit annoying when people came and went.

    Conveniently located, just a short walk from the center. Reception staff, especially Ben, offer excellent English-speaking service, assisting with laundry, transportation, and providing accurate information. Generous breakfast, try the huge banana pancake. Rooms are spacious and clean, with comfortable bunks and available bathrooms. The rooftop offers a great place to socialize. ATM, shops, and restaurants nearby.

    The showers were amazing - warm and powerful, the best I've experienced in a hostel. The price was also very affordable, including breakfast. the hostel had a nice seating area on the top floor and was conveniently located near the highlights of the city.

    The dorm rooms were cramped, and the individual lights for each bunk were annoying as they lit up the entire room. The staff wasn't the friendliest, and there was an unpleasant smell lingering in the hostel.

    This backpackers hostel offers a great budget option for young travelers. the location is perfect, just a short walk to Utopia and the Night Market. the dorm rooms are comfortable and spacious, with enough storage for everyone. the showers have excellent water pressure and hot water. the rooftop terrace is a fantastic spot to meet people, with free pool, coffee, and tea, as well as stunning views. There is even a laundry service available at a reasonable price.

    The bathrooms could be improved as they are not separated, resulting in wet floors and non-absorbent mats outside the doors.

    The value for money at this hostel was excellent! The room was clean and comfortable, and the location was perfect for exploring the city. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay.

    Breakfast delights with a wider variety of options would have been even better.
