It's a little inconvenient because the location is on the outskirts of Rua Prabang. But there are also events every night to restore it. If you participate well, you can have a good time. And manager Poryea is very kind.
Response from Property: Hi there, thank you for your kind review. It makes this business all the more pleasurable when we have lovely guests like you and your party staying with us. Safe travels and enjoy the rest of your trip.

The terrible noise created by room door, chicken and uncooperative travelers have made the whole staying experience not quite pleasant. Sleepless nights for days, at last I am checking out
Response from Property: Hi Stephen, thank you for bringing this to our attention. As soon as we learned of your review, the management team checked the door of the previous room that you had. However, the door works fine, and so do the others. As for the other guests, we do ask everyone to be considerate, and our security team will intervene when someone is disrupted to an extreme degree. Because it is a shared dormitory, other occupants come and go to the room as they wish. There are instances when they attend nighttime activities at the bowling alley, and if they come back from a night out, they might not be completely silent. We understand your frustration, but it is all part of the hostel experience. The noise coming from the chicken is out of our control as it is not owned by the hostel. We respect the local community as much as we respect our guests, and regrettably, we cannot ask the neighbor to take action about it as they value their livelihood. Please understand that these issues aren’t a reflection of the Mad Monkey service. Our apologies if we did not live up to expectations, but we hope you’ll give us another go soon and find out what we’re all about and what keeps so many great guests coming back for repeat stays.

Great hostel especially for this price. You should definitely book it in Luang Prabang if you’re a solo traveler on a budget. Although Mad Monkey has a reputation of party hostel, I slept well and weren’t disturbed by any sounds because bar in the hostel shut down at 11pm. Female dorm was nice and clean. There are curtains for each bed, hair dryer in the bathroom, you can also rent a towel.

Looks like a great place for young travelers on bikes. Out of the city center you must get a ride. Lots of people in sa room but comfy. Staff is very nice.

I didn’t make any travel plans, so I went directly to Luang Prabang after reading a vocabulary. When I was picking up my train ticket in Xishuangbanna, I met a girl. She said she booked the Mad Monkey Hotel and said it only cost about 40 yuan. I checked the website and it was more than 80yuan. I went to the waterfall the next day and my phone ran out of battery. When I came back, the price was 117, which was similar to the price of a single room in the hotel, but I didn't change accommodation. Although it is more expensive than any youth hostel I have stayed in before, it feels good, the staff is very welcoming, and it is convenient to eat and drink. I also rented a scooter for two days for $9.27 per day. Once my motorcycle broke down, they replaced it for me. When I left, the hotel owner called a car for me and we went to the airport . Thanks to the boss and staff for letting me see the passion of the Laotian people.

The room facilities are very new, the design is very reasonable, the bedding is very comfortable, the ceiling is very good, if I come here again, I will definitely stay in this place, although it is not close to the night market, but it is not far away, the breakfast cake at the door is delicious, highly recommended

Very good, the room has a powerful air conditioner, a large space, the bathroom and toilet are clean and odorless, the staff also organizes activities in the evening, and the staff can also speak Chinese. It is 1 km away from the city center and the environment is quiet and comfortable.

The existence of the ceiling of the youth hostel! I saw the pictures online and decided to book it because the bed was nice. I read a lot of reviews before booking. You guys are really tight-lipped! 1. The bed in the ladies' room is 1.2 meters! Very wide, and the mattress is also very thick! The youth hostels I stayed in abroad before were almost like letting you sleep directly on the bed board! 2. The room is very large and there are many storage spaces! The room for 12 people is not crowded at all. Everyone has an iron cabinet for suitcases, which can be locked. There are also two places on the bed for small bags and carry-on bags, and two rows of shelves for toiletries. There is a retractable large mirror at the end of the bed for makeup. There is still a lot of space around the mattress for clothes! Maybe there are more people who have considered living here for a long time, so there is more storage space! 3. The washbasin and toilet are separated into three areas, and the table is very clean, tidy and refreshing. There are also paper towels in the toilet, and it is not dirty and messy! People like me who are sensitive to smells don’t smell any strange smells. The youth hostel is doing a good job of cleaning! The water volume in the bathroom is also relatively large. 4. There is a swimming pool!!! ! No one mentioned it in so many reviews! The price of the youth hostel and the supporting facilities of the hotel! When we left the next day, we met compatriots and found out that there was a swimming pool on the second floor! I went up and lay down for more than ten minutes before checking out. It was really nice. No wonder foreigners lie down in a row all night, chatting, drinking and watching the stars! Because of this youth hostel, I will come again. It is so suitable for daze! 5. The location is okay, quiet in the bustling area. The entire Luang Prabang city is not big. There are only two lively places, the night market and the foreigner street. The location of the youth hostel is two small roads turning from the downtown area. It takes about 15 to 20 minutes to walk there. Don’t go out without a companion at night. It’s dark. The downtown area is also depressed after 9 o’clock in the evening, and the lights on the road are dim. 6. The accommodation environment is good. There are 12 beds. During the Water Splashing Festival, there are about 8 to 10 beds. Everyone in the room is quite quiet. Washing is in the room. Everyone travels at off-peak times, so there is no queue. There is a public area at the entrance of the youth hostel. Music will be played at night. Many people chat and drink there. Some can be heard in the room. People who are sensitive to sound should wear earplugs. There are also roosters crowing in the morning. 7. The service facilities are not bad. The staff are not too enthusiastic, it's just a youth hostel. They will answer any questions, and the answers are relatively detailed. I didn't feel any discrimination as mentioned before, just normal communication. The youth hostel has some carpooling services for surrounding attractions, such as Kuang Si Waterfall, etc., which can be arranged with the hotel in advance. On the morning of the day we checked out, a tuk-tuk of people went to Kuang Si Waterfall at 10:30. 8. Most of the foreigners staying here are young people. Everyone plays together and practices language by the way. It's good!

On New Year's Eve, there was a party outside and I went to bed to rest. I stayed in the upper bunk because I was afraid that the two people below would be there when I went up the ladder. Even when I was climbing up, they were still doing it, and the movement was very loud.
