Beware....there are much better options in Hanoi
Pros:

Lake View, if its important to you....but not great

Cons:

Location is too far from the action of Old Town. The street is very noisy outside. The apartment was not clean, it was updated at some point years ago, but it hasn't been kept up. I had to kill roaches, and had biting bugs while in bed, in which I asked for another room. They only handed me a can of bug killer. I really don't like giving bad reviews....but please be aware, cost is not everything.

Pros:

Great location, right next to the lake

Cons:

The bed sheets were stained, when I asked for replacements they just brought different, still stained sheets which I refused and was told there were no more! I ended up getting given a mattress topper for a bed sheet, which was not fitted and was uncomfortable to sleep on as kept sliding around while I was sleeping! Also it's a very busy area, right next to a road with beeping motorbikes constantly going past until past midnight! There is also construction work nearby that will wake you up early in the morning!
