The location and value was pretty good. But If you’re allergic to smoke, have asthma or don’t like being indoors and exp
Pros:

Location was very good & our room had recently been renovated. However there wasn’t any hot water and shower did not drain.

Cons:

It wasn’t clear before I booked that smoking was apparently allowed everywhere inside this hotel. I am allergic to cigarette smoke and would not have booked room if I had known. The lobby, hallways, elevator all reeked of smoke and people were smoking in their rooms even though no smoking signs were posted.

Vortäuschen falscher Tatsachen
Pros:

Das Zimmer war sehr gut ausgestattet und die Angestellten waren nett.

Cons:

Die Beschreibung des Hotels entspricht nicht den Tatsachen. Es gibt keinen Strand mehr, vor dem Hotel ist eine riesige Baustelle, dadurch ist es 24/7 laut und schmutzig. Für das Frühstück gibt es auch nur 1 Stern: gummiartiges Brot, trockenes Ei, labbriger Salat, Kaffee leider ungenießbar

Es war nicht schön dort zu übernachten und ich bereue es, diese Unterkunft gewählt zu haben.
Pros:

Das Zimmer war neu renoviert

Cons:

Mir ist absolut nicht klar, wie dieses Hotel zu dieser Bewertung auf Booking kommt?! Erstmal wird mit einer Aussicht beworben, die überhaupt nicht angeboten werden kann (obwohl man dafür extra zahlt!!) dann gibt es kein Buffet zum Frühstück sondern im benachbarten Restaurant ein spärliches Angebot an schlechten Getränken (instant Kaffee) und Brotstücken, die man nicht runterschlucken kann dazu sind die Fenster sowas von undicht, dass man das Gefühl hat ständig auf der Straße zu stehen und überall wird geraucht.

This place is absolutely perfect for a honeymoon!
Pros:

The room had such a warm and cozy vibe — beautifully decorated with soft lighting and a super comfortable bed that made us feel right at home. The breakfast was amazing too, especially the local crab noodle soup, which became our favorite dish during the stay. Everything from the view to the friendly staff made the experience so special. We both loved every moment here and would definitely come back for another romantic getaway!

Reclamation has changed this locality.
Pros:

Helpful staff. Lots of room space (old style hotel)
A beautiful area.
(Photo of Cat Ba No3 beach included here)

Cons:

Not a fault of the hotel. But when I was here 8 years ago the hotel was alongside the sea front and beach. Reclamation, which I wasn't aware of, has pushed the esplanade and beach 400 metres away. No longer a beach view from this hotel. Sad, and so are many of the locals. (Photo from an adjacent high-rise)

Not anymore sea front hotel
Pros:

Location is superb but this is about to change very shortly due to ongoing massive development in front of the all hotels in the area.
Good value for money

Cons:

Construction site in front of the hotels. What used to be the bay and beach on the other side of the road has been filled up with concrete and new buildings in the last 12 months. Currently all the sea front hotels are becoming in land hotels
