Adrian BI had a second class seat. Administratively, it was all uncomplicated, including the crossing into Laos. Comfort was ok, but the Aircon was too cold, and passing people rarely closed the door to the midsection between carriages, which was made it noisy.

Jan NThe train was comfortable and on time. But it was very cold! Pack long clothes or you’ll freeze so much!

Bev AAs the trip continued the bad smell from the toilet got worse. The seats were very uncomfortable, the train dirty, the windows so dirty , you couldn't see out . My tray table was tied back with tape, the seat in front of me upholstery was ripped and stuffing coming out. The trains really need upgrading!

Edward SSleeper Train beds were clean and comfortable. AC maybe a bit too strong, but that's easy to fix with more clothes whereas the inverse is not true.

Jamina SIf you wanna travel cheap it’s okay.. but the bus driver’s attitude are bad! No interest, no english no explanation what do to and where to meet at country boarder.

Faiz RTrain left on time amd bedding was all set. Bed and comforter were cosy. Train's movement is felt throughout and frequent stops but who cares when you are in bed. Border crossing was smooth and whole process was about 30 minutes. Got back on train and reached Vientiane on time.
