The location is great, very quiet within walking distance to everything, Sapa has ski village vibes. The owner is often working at the front desk and is genuinely an incredible human. We arrived 630 AM on the train and he permitted us to check-in to our rooms early, as well as check out at 5 PM with no extra costs! He even upgraded us to a superior room because it was available! He helped us book a one-day trek with a local and it was so fun and informative! We are active 50 year olds and found one day to be plenty for us if you plan to trek, it was so beautiful and VERY muddy in January. Mr Kim is a gem! I can't say enough good things about Mountain Queen House and highly recommend. I would also email Mr Kim to assist with any tour bookings and transpiration needs - excellent prices with quality services. You will not regret staying here.
