A tidy little place on the corner of the main road and the market road, Huom Phanh Guesthouse is not a bad choice for a cheap room.

The very small rooms sport large spring beds with clean sheets, new pillows, old-style satellite TV and hot water bathrooms with squat toilets. The owner's children can speak some English and this makes life much easier when trying to ask questions. The only downside that we could foresee is that rooms facing the road might be noisy. Otherwise, a room further inside the building will be relatively quiet and a decent place to rest after a hard day's trekking.
