Отличный семейный отель на центральной улице.
Pros:

Приятный отель с большими номерами. Центральная улица, рядом рынки и различные заведения. У хозяина можно арендовать скутер и воспользоваться услугами стирки. Вкусные завтраки. В следующий раз с удовольствием остановился тут. Только надо спросить у хозяина как включить горячую воду. Стройка уше на стадии завершения, шума от строителей нету.

Pros:

Le restaurant sur place a vraiment été un point fort — surtout le bœuf kho, absolument délicieux ! Le petit-déjeuner était savoureux et à un prix raisonnable, avec quelques options de style occidental. Le café vietnamien était un peu trop sucré pour moi, mais tout de même agréable à savourer.

This little budget place turned out to be such a gem!
Pros:

It’s simple but has everything you need — a comfy bed, a clean bathroom, and hot water that actually works. The location couldn’t be better, right on the main street with everything nearby. For the price, it’s honestly more than I expected.

Pros:

The room was bright and airy, with plenty of natural light. It’s clean and comfortable, though it could use a bit of a deep clean in some corners. The hot shower and thick blankets were a big plus — especially after a long day out exploring.
