Lan Kham Hotel
Pokey rooms
What we say: 
The cheapest rooms in this central four-storey hotel are so pokey that the washbasin doesn't fit in the bathroom and is in the bedroom instead. They're also on the top floor, which requires a climb up some uneven stairs but does deliver a bit of a view over Pakse. At the rear on this floor is a large but unfurnished terrace area. The higher-priced rooms all have air-con, TVs, fridges and hot water, but many have no exterior windows. Travelfish users complain that the staff are not so friendly, and we found them a bit burnt out when we visited as well. You'll get a much better deal for the same type of room at the Phonesavanh Guest House, but if it's full, this is a good back-up, and it's closer to more services and places to eat. The restaurant on the ground floor is the place in Pakse for breakfast, but is abandoned much of the rest of the day. Also on site is a travel agency, motorbike hire and internet cafe.

Good location
Have stayed here many times, usually en route to Si Phan Don etc , Pakse makes a good stopping point to break up the trip. Within walking distance of everything, spacious rooms, very cheap. The rental bicycles are in horrid condition, do not rent the bicycles here!

Great Value
I spent a total of 4 nights here. If you spend a couple more bucks, you'll get very large rooms. Location is great and the staff is helpful and friendly. Will definitely stay here again!

Good location; bargain rate
Stayed there 3 different times; we left luggage in there locked luggage room twice with no problems. Rooms are funky; although the family room for $10 was the best; the other rooms are OK but old. Climbing the 3 stories to our room did not bother us but could be a problem for some. Staff was helpful. It is good for a stopover place.

Not bad
The A/C room for $8 was clean and alright, although without windows and quite small. Nothing to complain about, but nothing to go hooray over either. An easy, alright choice, but there are better ones in town.

Not fantastic
The room is old but relatively clean. Bought the minivan transfer to Si Pha Don from the staff at the place and it turned out that the tickets do not include the ferry ride even though we asked and were answered affirmatively more than once that they do. Don't buy the tickets from them - walk a couple of steps and you will see a couple of travel agencies, think it is better to get tickets from them.
