Great homestay with a friendly family in a beautiful area.
Pros:

The family who runs this homestay is wonderful and very friendly. The son's English was great and the dad speaks a bit of English as well, so communication was easy. We stayed several nights to slow down and explore the area. The location is great-- in a quiet area, rice farms across the river, a 15-minute walk to Hieu waterfalls, 3-minute walk to some water wheels. Food was good (try the frog's legs!), wi-fi was strong, coffee was stronger.

Cons:

The mattresses were a bit thin/firm, but we still slept well.

Rustic and remote homestay
Pros:

The accomodation is in individual bamboo huts, which were a bit of a novelty for us and had a rustic charm. The location is quite peaceful (with the exception of the roosters who crowed at any old hour!!) and a nice walking distance to the Hieu waterfall and village. The wider Pu Luong area was beautiful and lived up to its reputation as a less touristy Sapa. Tours are offered at reasonable rates, but we chose to go self-guided. The hosts were friendly and helpful, and the food we tried was tasty with a couple of vegetarian options. We kept getting given fresh fruit from the garden, which was delicious!

Cons:

While the hosts were very friendly and helpful, sometimes they were a bit too friendly for our tastes! No doubt many guests appreciate mealtime conversations, but we are antisocial and prefer to be left to enjoy our food without interruptions... Further, because of the very thin bamboo walls, I never felt like I could have a private conversation without risk that someone would overhear. As other reviews have noted, the beds are hard, but honestly that seems to be pretty standard in Vietnam. Be aware also that you will have to go outside to go to the toilet and shower, which are functional but basic.
However the main drawback in my opinion is the lack of accessibility without your own transport. Buses will generally drop off and pick up in Don Village, and we consistently found that no Grab car drivers were available to take us to and from the homestay. The host offered to arrange motorbikes for us but that wasn't something we felt comfortable with. We ended up walking ~2h each way, which is doable if you are fit but if you don't want to walk, make sure to arrange taxis in advance!
Bearing in mind the basic facilities and transport inconveniences, we also felt that the price wasn't the best value for what you get.

Pros:

The owner and his family were incredibly friendly and always willing to help. The location was superb, being so close to lush green rice fields with many walking trails and also a nearby waterfall. The owners offered up bananas and mandarins grown in their garden and the home cooked meals on offer also took advantage of garden produce. I loved my stay and would love to return.

Pros:

Nếu quá chán với đô thị ồn ào thì hãy đến Pù Luông Jungle King.
Tất cả những thứ mình cần ở 1 homestay đúng nghĩa, ở đây có đủ.
Cây cỏ, hoa lá cành, sông suối, đồ ăn,... Mọi thứ rất tự nhiên và tuyệt vời.

Fantástica experiencia!!
Pros:

Nos encantó el ambiente que se respiraba en el alojamiento. La familia nos hizo sentir como en casa, bien cuidadas y cómodas.
Los espacios comunes estaban muy bien y permitían compartir la estancia con otros huéspedes y con la propia familia.
La comida fue abundante y buena. Todo hecho con productos locales y propios. Nos adaptaron la comida a una persona vegana.
El tour por la selva con Tien (el padre) fue una maravilla. Una experiencia única. Tien se esforzaba mucho por enseñarnos y explicarnos cosas muy interesantes a pesar de la barrera del idioma. Nos cuidó mucho.
El tour con las motos fue bonito porque las carreteras tenían unas vistas espectaculares. Fuimos a la bat cave y para nuestra sorpresa, tuvimos que andar mucho (cuesta abajo y arriba) con el calor que hacía, así que se nos hizo bastante duro.
Hoai (el hijo) fue muy acogedor y procuró que estuvieramos cómodas en todo momento. Su inglés era muy fácil de entender y nos explicaba cosas bien interesantes.

Cons:

Las instalaciones son muy rudimentarias y básicas.
El colchón era muy duro.
Las maletas no cabían dentro de la cabaña, aunque se podían dejar en la entrada de ésta sin problema.
El baño es compartido y podría esta mejor mantenido.

Pros:

The owners were lovely and it was a good location to get to the waterfall and eating places nearby if you have a motorbike.

Cons:

Very uncomfortable beds and not the next showers. Compared to other places in Vietnam it was overpriced for what you got.

Great stay, live like a local in an amazing and beautiful area
Pros:

Great stay here, the owner and family are very friendly and helpful helped arrange transport from the drop off point to the home stay, And back again to Hanoi for a good price you can rent scooters and also arranged walking jungle tours for a very good price too

Meal times the hostel all are together at the same time brought a real home feel to it everyone could chat and exchange story’s and plans.

Toilets and showers are basic but clean

Beds are quite hard and not very good on my back for 4 nights other than that we really enjoyed our stay!
