    The location of the hostel is perfect, right in the center and close to all the essential amenities like shops and restaurants. It also offers a great view of the morning alms ceremony from certain rooms. the staff is exceptional and goes above and beyond to assist with train tickets, currency exchange, and providing helpful travel information. the hostel provides free filtered water and has a cozy communal area.

    The showers in the hostel were a letdown, with lukewarm water being the best it could offer.

    The staff was helpful, giving us advice on currency exchange and where to find food. They even helped us book the slow boat, making our experience much easier. The rooms were a decent size and very affordable. We also loved the lovely view from the terrace upstairs. The location was perfect, with an ATM right across the street and a laundry service nearby. The hostel was also conveniently located on the Main Street, close to restaurants and the river. the hostel offered SIM cards at reception, very convenient. Our private room was comfortable and clean, with soft bed sheets and a pleasant smell. The air conditioning worked perfectly, and the bathroom had soap and towels available. The reception staff, Lydia and Judith, were nice and helpful. The overall atmosphere of the hostel was peaceful and safe.

    Can honestly say there wasn't anything not to like.

    The private room I stayed in was clean and the bed was comfortable. I also loved the rooftop area with amazing sunset views over the river. The staff were friendly and were really nice too assist me, even helping me book my slow boat journey and arranging transportation to the dock. I appreciated the filtered water tap at reception for refilling my water bottles. I had a peaceful and safe experience at this conveniently located hostel.

    While staying at Over The Moon, I did experience some noise from the street outside.

    We had a great stay at this hostel. The staff were friendly and helpful, and they did their best to accommodate us. The price was cheap, and the location was perfect. It was right on the main street, with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The rooms were clean, and they all had private bathrooms. The views of the river were beautiful, and there was a covered chill-out area on the first floor. We could also book our onward travel and buy a SIM card at the reception. it was a peaceful and safe atmosphere.

    Nothing, all great.

    The location of this hostel was ideal, providing gorgeous views over the river and a convenient seating area to relax. The dorms had air conditioning, which was a great relief in the hot weather. Additionally, the hostel made efforts to be eco-friendly, which was a nice touch.

    We had some issues during our stay. The hostel was completely shut when we arrived in the mid afternoon, causing inconvenience and confusion.

    We had a great stay at this hostel! the rooms were clean and comfortable, all equipped with a bathroom. the location was perfect, right next to the Gibbon Experience and opposite the main bank. There were also plenty of restaurants nearby. the views over the Mekong River were breathtaking, and we loved the covered chill out area on the first floor. the staff was very helpful, allowing us to book onward travel and buy a SIM card. one of the nicest hostels we've ever stayed in. Cons: Nothing, everything was excellent! 😊.

    We stayed at Over The Moon for one night before our slow boat journey and it was perfect. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with thoughtful touches like a phone basket. Each dorm had its own bathroom, and there were extra showers/toilets outside too. The rooftop area was great for socializing, and there was free drinking water downstairs. The woman at the front desk was incredibly helpful with all our questions about border crossings and more. Highly recommended!

    Couldn't recommend this hotel more.
