First time in Vietnam

I stayed here a few days.Minh , Lee tuan anh mai them were really helpful and super friendly. That's the reason I decided to come back again here from sapa. I love the happy hour , which is the evening time that you can get to know other backpackers and enjoy the free beer. It's definitely worth staying here .

Clean rooms and bathrooms, good breakfast options (not just toast and an egg) and friendly staff. The daily happy hour where you get as much beer as you want is also a nice benefit and good way to meet other guests. Only issue I had was that the upper bunk in my room had a gap to the wall, so a couple of my things fell through, which was frustrating. Lockers were large (BYO lock). Great location.

Adorei!!

O hostel fica bem no meio do bairro antigo, perto de muitos cafés, restaurantes e lojinhas locais. O atendimento é ótimo, na chegada já te entregam um suco ou cerveja (se for no horário do happy das 6 as 7pm). A limpeza é boa, o café da manhã também é os atendentes super simpáticos. Recomendo!

이가격에 조식+프리맥주타임까지..! 대체로 만족해요.

대체로 만족해요! 조식 무료제공인데 음료나 식사메뉴 여러종류중에 선택 가능합니다. 여자4인실 썼는데 방도 깨끗했어요! 2층침대 위층을 썻는데, 침대 올라가는 계단이 불편해요...그냥 검은색 철제 봉이고 사다리가 땅에 닿아있거나 맨 위 침대까지 닿아있지 않고 중간에만 있어서ㅠㅠ 한번 내려오다가 미끄러졌네요.... 그외엔 프리맥주 타임도 있고, 화장실이 칫솔이나 치약, 빗 등 기본적인 어메니티가 있는거 좋았어요. 보통 다른 게스트하우스는 미리 말 하지 않으면 연박시 수건교체나 이불 정리 안해주는 곳이 많았는데, 여긴 외출하고오면 새 수건도 준비해서 침대에 올려놔주시고 이불정리도 해주셔서 좋았습니다. 항상 직원들이 1층에 있구요. 여러 투어상품도 신청 가능해요. 사파나 하롱베이 투어를 1층에서 예약하면 무료로 도미토리1박 제공한다고 하더라구요.

Das Hostel liegt sehr zentral im Old Quarter. Die Leute vom Hostel waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Ich finde das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis absolut in Ordnung. Dank dem Freibier am Abend findet man auch sofort Anschluss und Leute, mit denen man am Abend das Old Quarter geniessen kann.

Good atmosphere, ok facilities

This hostel had a great atmosphere, partly helped by the free beers available for guest in the evening. The facilities were good overall, nothing special. The room was a bit small for the price. Breakfast was nice, in par with other hostels in Vietnam. While the staff was helpful and nice, I would not recommend booking trips / activities with them. They tended to overcharge for tours (such as Halong Bay for instance).

Highly accessible with friendly staff

1. Staff are super friendly! You can join different tours through this hostel, but they definitely won't force you if you choose not to ;) 2. Breakfast is complimentary! What's more you ask for if USD5 per night also includes a nice breakfast? 3. Location matters! It's highly accessible to town and from the airport, grab a Uber if you can't locate it (after all everywhere is just walkable distance)! 4. The only problem is you have to walk up and down to your room. Luckily friendly staff will assist you when necessary.

Overbooked: downgrade as result

When I came to the hostel after a 14 hours flight, the receptionist told me it was full. They would bring me to another hostel that also belongs to them, not true. The receptionist even tried to sell tours to me in between moving to another hostel. I booked a 6 bed dorm, and because atmosphere important to me, I always book carefully a hostel... this time a waste of my time! So they moved me to another hostel, to a 8 bed dorm and a smaller room (for more beds). The bathroom was big, but everything was broken. Shower head could not be attached to wall.

전체적으로 가성비 좋은 곳

위치는 다소 어수선한 곳에서 벗어나서 밤에는 조용하고, 주변에 약국이랑 괜찮은 식당들이 있다. 걸어서 호수까지 오래걸려도 5분정도, 밤에는 비어스트릿까지도 10분 내외 거리라서 산책하고 다니기 좋은 공간, 정확하게 몇시부턴진 모르겠지만 저녁시간에 맥주탭을 무료로 풀어서 생맥주를 마실 수 있고 로비에서 여럿인원들과 함께 어울릴 수 있다. 스탭들이 참 친절하고 개인적인 의견이지만 베트남 사람은 웃음이 없지만 스탭들은 항상 웃으면서 맞아준다. 로비에 샤워실이 있어, 언제든 쉽게 할 수 있으며 세면도구가 구비되어 있어 참 가격대비 괜찮았다. 아마 다음에 하노이를 간다면, 그곳에 반드시 가서 묵을 예정
