Stunning view with peaceful vibes. Amazing value and a great place to decompress.
Pros:

The view from the homestay was stunning, feels like a world away from everything else. For something this far from everything else, it was truly a great value homestay. The beautiful nature, the little decor details, the comfort of the rooms, the authenticity of the host family were all top notch. Probably my favourite homestay in Vietnam. Just note that it's a bit hard to get to the homestay on a bike since it's above a hill but absolutely worth it.

Cons:

Nothing at all!

Pros:

Super emplacement a l extérieur de la ville.
Jolis bungalow spacieux (sauf les premiers prix qui sont au dessus du bar et pas très insonorisés)
Privilégier ceux côté piscine (p01)

Au cœur des montagnes
Pros:

Emplacement magnifique et sans doute la meilleur alternative dans le coin. Petit déjeuner copieux

Cons:

Nourriture et propreté un cran en dessous de ce que nous avons pu trouver tout au long de boucle.

Pros:

It's a lovely place to stay!

Some may find it a bit rough around the edges, but it is clean and the location is second to none!

The meals are tasty and plenty full, and the staff is super helpful and friendly.

I hope it keeps its lovely character and doesn't turn into a Hai Giang loop party hostel.

Cons:

Breakfast was good, but we only got western food, a Vietnamese option would make it even better!!

Pros:

C'était top on a eu la chance d'avoir un dortoir de 4 personnes pour deux. Les lots étaient conforts et le petit dej était bon.

Cons:

Attention à la position sur Google maps ! Le family dinner était un peu cher mais bon comme partout et une fois arriver là haut ça fait du bien de ne plus bouger :)

Durch die Lage und den überaus freundlichen und hilfsbereiten Service sicher ein Highlight 👍😎
Pros:

Die Gastgeberin ist super freundlich und ausgesprochen hilfsbereit. Ist sofort auf meine Essstörung eingegangen. Ich wurde kulinarisch super versorgt.
Die angebotene Tour war ebenfalls ein einmaliges Erlebnis.
Ich kann es nur empfehlen.

Cons:

Selbst für vietnamesische Verhältnisse könnte es sauberer sein. Man könnte auch mal zwischendurch unter den Betten und in den Ecken mal zumindest kehren.

TERRIBLY DIRTY
Pros:

It's hard to write anything positive except that the view was nice and the kitchen lady was very nice.

Cons:

It was terribly dirty. Our pillows smelled terribly and weren't clean. The overall cleanliness of the cottage left much to be desired. There were cobwebs, trash, and hairs on the floor. We had two spiders in the bathroom the size of a man's hand. There were so many cracks and crevices in the house that I dread to think how many spiders there were. Furthermore, the owner was a bit unprepared for the arrival of guests, even though we booked in the morning and arrived in the evening.

Heerlijk verblijf gehad
Pros:

Erg mooie locatie, leuke slaapvertrekken en lieve mensen. Het eten was ook erg lekker (zowel het diner als het ontbijt) De host spreekt goed Engels en de sfeer is er erg gemoedelijk. Als ik nog eens terug kom naar deze omgeving, boek ik deze Homestay geheid weer. Bedankt!
