Vang Vieng Lily Backpackers Hostel

“Barato y buena ubicación, pero sucio.”

The location was good, the staff friendly, the private room had air conditioning and a fan, breakfast was also good, and the price was cheap. The room was very dirty; the bathroom even had hair on the first day we arrived and the floor was disgusting, and the sheets and pillows had stains. The mess in the room prevented me from feeling comfortable during my stay. We didn’t tell the staff, so maybe if we had, they would have fixed it, but I don’t know.

Quiet hostel in a good location. The room I stayed in was very large, with a nice, comfortable bed. The common areas were spacious and pleasant. The staff were very kind and courteous. Breakfast was good, offering three variations and always fresh fruit. The bathrooms were generally clean, but I noticed the shower floors were never washed. For the price paid, I’d say the value for money is more than good.

“Great staff but you get what you pay for in terms of room quality and cleanliness”

The staff were amazing and welcoming. We were able to book onward travel quite easily. The included breakfast was a welcome treat. The location was great, close to the night markets and easy to navigate from. The window and balcony door both didn’t close. The sheets were dirty and had cat footprints on them. The bathroom looked dirty as well but I think that was staining to the tiles and not dirt. There was no hot water for the shower

I enjoyed my stay very much. The view from my room was nice, the AC worked well, and the private bathroom had a hot shower. Breakfast was a good choice; I ate banana pancakes every day! They offer tours, but I simply rented a bicycle and explored the area and all the viewpoints/lagoons on my own.

The staff were really welcoming and helped me with everything I needed. I was able to do an early check‑in, which was life‑saving, and the beds were very comfortable. The outside area is open so a lot of dust gets in; the location is fine but a bit off‑center.
