Found a good guesthouse in Vientiane (after too many crappy ones), called Chindamay Guest House, on Sihom Road, BanHaiSok. It's west of the strip, just where Th Setthatirat starts. (A Y-junction with a tiny gas-station, where Luang Prabang Rd meets a smaller sideroad). 6 dollar for a fairly new, fairly clean room with nice big bed and the best toilet I have seen for a long time.

The Ekalath still works fine for me every time. Secure under cover parking, huge rooms, quiet, not a high volume back packer turn over hotel.

Does this hotel have an email address guys?

I don't mind ringing the number.. but usually find an email works best when booking rooms and getting a confirmation.

Cheers

Telephone is the only way to get through to them & even that can be a bit frustrating.

Mixay Paradise Guesthouse

A very well run value for money gh in a central location.

Lots of easy seating in the dining room & outdoors on the terrace. Popular with Thais.

Small clean rooms, everything works properly.

Only streetside parking, but the staff chained my bike up every night & had it unchained first thing in the morning.
Worth of consideration, if you're on a tight budget. Extremely attentive & friendly staff.
