I stayed in 3 different rooms for $18 pn at Dragon Lodge, Vientiane, in June ‘06. The air-conditioning barely worked making rooms hot and stuffy. The room with the ‘best’ aircon had a broken hot water heater and no internal door bolt. Another room had such poor water flow the water heater wouldn’t kick-in. The Singaporean manager treated me with contempt when I complained about these basic failings. He also sold me tickets on a hellish bus to Vang Vieng with broken aircon. Dragon Lodge cares only about making money whilst spending nothing on basic maintenance.
