Very basic but big rooms
Off the river, Nong Kiaow
Luang Prabang Province
Description
Mexay is a big wooden house, set off the bank of the river, offering extremely basic but large rooms with just a bed and mosquito net offering protection against the numerous moquitoes buzzing around. Management supplies candles as there is no electricity. The toilets are very clean, but are outside in a separate building. A restaurant is located on the balcony with a limited menu, providing a nice enough space to relax in, but without the stunning mountain and river views most other guesthouses around here have.
