      Very fun, happy and clean! ”

      The front desk staff are very friendly, happy and always help out when they can. Good breakfast in the morning which is paid for when you stay and even if you go down later out with their breakfast time they still feed you with no bother. The room, beds and bathroom were all very clean and had hot water! We booked a trip to Ha Long Bay through the hostel and they made it very easy. They also have good parking just outside the hostel. Would definitely recommend and would definitely stay again.

      Short and Simple”

      Location only

      Wasn't really a hotel, more like a motel. Room was poorly maintained and dusty. It comes with an Aircon though. This place Bai Chay is littered with hotels and they are mostly empty hence you have the bargaining power as other hotels would want you. This hotel might be the cheapest, but you can get cheaper, room condition and comfort. After a long trip around Vietnam, it is worth to Sleep well in a comfortable room for just 1 or 2 nights. Don't bother to book in advance, just walk along the street and you might find a hotel you like, there are dozens of hotel there, all empty. The only plus about this hotel is that it makes authentic strong coffee for just under a dollar.

      We are the only people in our dorm room of 6 so that may have made a big difference. But the place was clean and neat, wifi was fast and the staff polite. Lisa was a great host and she gave us a number of tips to get around to Cat ba and Hai Phuong. Breakfast was basic. Watched a game of Euro 2016 with the staff on a large flatscreen in the lounge.

      The staff were so friendly, and downstairs was cute with beanbags and books, so I really wanted to like this place. Our room smelled like stale urine, and the beds were no better than sleeping on the ground. The air conditioner was also in a very sad state and it was always hot in our room. We had a private room on the second floor, and I really can't speak for the state of the rest of the rooms--hopefully they are better!

      ロープウェイの発着地、テーマパークに歩いて行け、バス停が近かったので観光やショッピングに便利でした。 建物はかなり古いが周りのゲストハウスも同じ様な感じでした。 部屋は広く掃除はキチンとされていたので快適に過ごすことができました。また、夕方になるとビールを頼むと1本が無料になりました。 泊まり客は全員欧米人でしたが、若いスタッフが日本語が話せきちんとお世話をしてくださいました。本当にありがとうございました。 今回わかったことがあります。市場周辺レストラン、ビアホールでえぐい程ぼったくる店がありました。食事するときはスタッフに紹介したもらった方がいいかも。
