Vientiane Star Hotel

位於萬象市中心地段，出行挺方便！我還以為是個普通酒店，結果不是，好像是客棧之類的，當天萬象定不到經濟型酒店的房間了，衹有這家還有空房就定了2間，結果呢，不能平台付款，去到酒店現金付款每間房比平台預訂時候的價格貴20至30元人民幣，感覺有點不划算！多國人員入住，印度三哥音樂放的挺大聲！

First of this is NOT a Hotel, even less a "Star Hotel", the name is a joke, just like the Australian owner. The place ha a foul smell of mold attached to the walls, the room was dirty and in poor condition. Do NOT trust the pictures showed on Agoda or similar, the rooms are nothing like that... Worst off all was the amount bedbugs. The Aussie insisted they take good precautions against this and never had any problem with this before, he even tried to tell my my bite marks probably was from mosquitoes, I told him I had smashed a bug in the bed, which he said "obviously was an adult bug already and it was not my blood". They did make the effort to change sheets. But that was about it, guess the football game had him hurry back to his little hideout.. I was about to leave right away, but I decided to prove a point and stayed up the whole night killing and collecting bedbugs. If there's anyway to share pictures here please let me know and I will show you the amount I had when the sun came out. needless to say I did a new booking on Agoda for another hotel that night and left in the morning. I tried to argue for a refund for the 2 days that I didn't stay, they said "they will take care of it and have it transferred back to my account", Yea right... I knew right away he just wanted to avoid the situation. But since no money has shown I decided to make a review here, and will do all in my power to make people see what kind of scumbag place this really is throughout internet. For your own sake, don't stay here, there are a thousand better, and cheaper, options around Vientiane. This place is a joke and the Aussie should be expelled from Laos for making the nation loose face with this terrible standard. Absolute disaster. Just a word of warning to anyone thinking of staying there, think again.

Now 5* value with new English speaking management team. New furniture and LCD TV. Mix of cool travelers and locals. Great central location near the riverfront in easy walking distance of Inpeng Temple opposite Slow Coffee ☕ ; )
