Phetmanyxay Hotel is on Mahosot Road near the morning market, it's about a 500meter walk to the Mekhong river, fan rooms from 300baht and aircon from 450baht and up, nice and clean and quiet.
On the 3rd floor is a free self serve coffee and tea area, they hide the coffee in the afternoons though, nice seating areas there on the 3rd floor aswell.
The bad points; unbelieveably they close at 11.30pm, yep if you aint back in time then your going to be sleeping on the streets of Vientiane, anyway as I passed out in a drunken stupor at about 6.30pm it didn't make a lot of difference to me.
All the rooms have tv's, they supply you with towels so thats something you don't need to carry if your doing a visa run, couple of tiny bars of soap, and a satchet of shampoo, also a couple of free bottles of water, all in all a pretty good deal.
Nice comfy bed.
Bathroom has a proper toilet and hot water shower.
As I was leaving I wondered what this was.
Now I know why there wasn't an ashtray and ended up using an old coke can.
