Good value and excellent host
Pros:

We arrived on sleeper bus at 3am, I left my backpack with the passports In the taxi, Mai drove me back to the taxi stand and waited to collect bag, it was panic stations so I was so grateful. The rooms were clean and the pool was good, it’s about a 5-10 min walk to Main Street but good massage and restaurants on the way so had no issues walking there. Mai booked our tour as well. Breakfast you had to order the night before but this seems standard in low season.

Cons:

Nothing, was good value for money

Pros:

Pool was great and enjoyable to cool off in. Breakfast was decent with only a few options to choose from. Rooms were clean.

Cons:

Location is a little far out from centre but doesn't exactly feel in the countryside so I think maybe it would have been better to stay either closer to the centre or more rural. It is a very short Grab to town though so only a minor point.

A cosy, comfortable and convenient place to stay in Ninh Binh, with a large pool and friendly dogs
Pros:

Lovely property just outside the busy centre of Tam Coc. The location was close enough to walk to restaurants and the boat pier, but far enough away that is was calm and quiet - a great place to relax after Hanoi. We hired a motorbike from the property which allowed us to travel further afield to the ancient capital Hoa Lu, and peddle bikes are also available which are a great way to explore the villages.
The property was clean, spacious and had great facilities. A filling breakfast is included. But the standout are the large swimming pool, loungers in the sunny courtyard, and the friendly dogs that greet you as you wake up in the morning and return in the evening.

Cons:

Nothing - everything was excellent

It was perfect!
Pros:

The service was excellent. They were very kind, helpful in getting us transportation and accommodating in all our requests. Such as getting us scooters and doing our laundry - all at reasonable prices. Breakfasts were delicious and made when it suited us.
The location was far enough away from the main drag so that it was quiet, but also close enough to the central area to walk back and forth with ease.

Thank you, it was perfect
Pros:

We loved our stay here! For us, it was probably one of the best stays we’ve had in Vietnam.

The owners are super friendly and prepare breakfast for us every day.
There’s also the option to rent a scooter.

The rooms are simple, cozy, and very clean.

We are just 10 minutes from the city center, where there’s a lot of activity. Here, however, it’s completely peaceful with no noise at all.

We absolutely loved being here!

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

The property and staff/owners were lovely but this place is right at the end of a long road (1km) and was a bit daunting to walk in the dark on the first night but it didn’t feel unsafe.

Perfect homestay in Tam Coc
Pros:

Such a lovely homestay in Tam Coc. The owners don’t speak much English, but they are always there to help you and it’s easy to talk via Google translate. The rooms were very spacious and clean with a really nice bathroom. The property has some really cute small dogs too. The breakfast they provide was so nice as well (especially the banana pancakes!). We could hire some good quality bicycles from here too and ride around the rice fields which was so relaxing, and it’s a short ride/walk into town for restaurants. It wasn’t very busy in the homestay even though there’s a lot of rooms, they definitely deserve more customers!

Cons:

Nothing!

Nice rooms. Improve pool. Could be great
Pros:

Rooms were nice.

Cons:

Pool was unusable as dirty. Bike we hired broke down after we was told that it was fine even with an alert engine light on.
