I think the title says enough!
We stayed there and had bedbugs. When checking out the room the owner ensured us that there where no bedbugs. As these creatures are mainly night active we notices too late and had to leave the hostel at 3am in the morning.
We got our refund.

Bedbugs!!

Ok... as I travel low budget and I sleep in hostels I usually don’t have great expectations on the place where I stay. 
About Niny I can say that the location is very nice, close to many tourist attractions and close to the Mekong river. 
Big pro is the lovely breakfast included in the already cheap price. It’s not big, but it’s a good way to start the day.
The guy who manages the hostel is friendly and he is nice too. 
I had some problems with the aircon. As I live in south east Asia and I know that it’s very hot, especially in a small room shared with other 4 people, when I booked the room I checked twice if there was the aircon in the room. So I decided for Niny. When I arrived during the day and I was literally liquified, I kindly asked to switch on the aircon. The guy answered me negatively telling me that they usually switch on the aircon at night time. 
Ok.. well... weird but if you say so. Around 7 pm I took a shower. Then I asked again but he said me: yes, at 10 pm. 
What?! I was in the highest floor, it was super hot and at least 5 degrees more than downstairs, with a fan that was moving hot air as an hair drier... suddenly it started to rain. So I opened the one window of the room, close to my bed... so close that I had to move the bed otherwise it would rain on me! I was hoping that the rain would have refreshed the air. But it stopped after 5 minutes... and then mosquitos came! 
I was angry and around 9.30 pm I went downstairs.. I complained again and I told him that it’s not possible to survive there without aircon. So he ensured me that he would have switched on it... and when he did it, I went back to the room. I slept actually quite well. But the aircon stopped around 6. 
The day after there were other female guests in the room. Incredibly the aircon was on already at 8 pm. I guess I’m not that pretty or not so nice when I ask something. 
So....remember to ask the running timetable of the aircon... and have a pleasant stay at Niny backpackers 

The air con’s mistery 

We only spent one night Here but we really Liked this place. The owner was really nice, the dorm was Clean and big with aircon. Good showers and Clean toilets for this price. Breakfast (Egg Toast banana & Coffee) was included. The WiFi was also good. All in all we really Liked the relaxed atmosphere Here and would definetly recommend this Hostel 

Cute hostel, Nice owner

Would never stay here again....staff rude,no towels or soap provided...no water left for sale in fridge after waking up sweating dehydrated @ 5:30 am!! But worst of all turning the Aircon off during the night just destroys it for me.....POOR POOR POOR PLACE yet to eat breakfast but I'm expecting at best one egg and one slice of bread.....!

Poorly operated plus air con only from 9am to 5pm!!

I arrived in one hot day and the room baked you alive. A/C in scheduled from 10pm-6am only which was not mentioned online when i booked for this place. The receptionist is ok though he is always infront of his gadgets (sigh). Room is ok and breakfast. Overall it’s not great but so so.
