Faa Apartment

Due to our need to stay longer in Vientiane we chose to stay at Faa apartments as it was a lovely room, nothing flash but clean & comfortable & quite cheap. It was also located in a great location, close to morning & night markets. The Cultural Centre is directly across road. If anyone ever needs a printing service, there's a Mr. King (Fuji) printing shop up & across road. Mekong river 5 minute walk.

The staff was very polite and eager to help

Excellent stay, no complaints.

Extremely disappointed with the apartment. Tired after 2 years of being closed. Bathroom was awful - no water pressure, no bathmat, one old towel, 1 tiny cake of soap for the 5 nights and the smell was horrendous. I had to ask for toilet paper as only half a small roll was provided. The WIFI didn't work 99% of the time. The TV didn't work at all. The aircon - constantly dripped so much so that the entire floor and bottom of the bed were soaked most mornings - it didn't cool very well so luckily an old pedestal fan was there as a back up. The kitchen had a microwave and fridge and a few plates but that's about it - nothing to wash the dishes with, cutlery and plates dirty - as obviously been left unwashed for quiet some time. Bed linen was stained and old and only changed on Day 5 of my stay It took me telling them I was leaving to get someone to clean my room - that was on Day 5! On check-in was not offered any help with luggage - and I was on the 4th floor - so struggled up 4 flights of steep stairs at night in an extremely badly lit stairwell. Most mornings and nights the reception appeared to be abandoned - the front gate was shut at around 6pm and the main front door locked - luckily I saw another guest coming out the side door - or Would have been locked out. Occasionally a boy - always appeared to be dressed only in his boxer shorts would appear and say hello.

Nice big room and good location to the night market, sushi , fried chicken Indian food and authentic Laos Food. It was great!!
