Hotel was nice, very good value for money. Breakfast was ok and common tv room was nice. Bunk bed rooms were ok, big beds, toilet shower room a bit odd though cause of the shape of the room! Staff friendly, although we booked out Halong bay your through them and were very disappointed, it just wasn't what we were sold!... More

This was not what you would expect from a backpackers hostel....we had a double room with city views, small laptop in room, free wifi...own ensuite....always clean. Amazing price, AU$35, couple with breakfast. Breakfast is not special, get in early...but as I'm not a big breakfast eater it was fine. The staff were always very friendly and very helpful eg. arranging... More

Great Hostel/Hotel in Hanoi. My favourite place that we stayed in. Really nice double rooms with laptops (a bit slow) and big tv's and dvd players. Also they had a 60 inch tv in the common room with lots of dvd's free to watch. The free pool table was great too, as were the computers downstairs. Breakfast was very nice,... More
