I was in Hanoi at least eight times this summer. I slept in, and reviewed a number of budget hotels. However, I spent the most time at this particular property. On one hand, this is a fairly typical Asian / Vietnamese style budget hotel, the likes of which can be found all over the city / country/ region. It's a bit dated, grotty, needs a complete renovation and really only worthy of two out of five dots. But, the people who run it are really nice, friendly and helpful. This property has far more character and charm than any other hotel I know. With some (a lot) of TLC, this place could really be something. Another thing that makes this hotel appealing is that it had very few guests, so it was quite, I could always get a room on the back side of the building (quite) and I never made a reservation. I simply arrived when I arrived and they always had a room and the walk-in rate was the same: 500,000 VND.
