This place looks a little ragged, and the fixtures and fittings are dated, but the four fan rooms and six air-cooled rooms here come with balconies and it's in a prime riverfront location with views across to Laos. There's a solitary bungalow, which is the best option, as well as a riverside bar/restaurant. Free bicycles are available.
