Harmony Hoian Homestay

Le chant du coq a 3h du matin et le haut parleur ( Du parti communiste ?) à 5h00 le dimanche...mais les propriétaires n y sont pour rien...

Here are a few drawback...

1. No trash can inside the room. Only bathroom
2. Queen bed with patio is definitely extremely noisy. My windows are closed 24/7 and still feel like I'm sleeping on the street
3. Patio is shared with another room, so they smoke there. Hence, my windows remained closed 24/7. I recommend other rooms without patio. They have so very nice windows with trees but without streets
4. It's really odd sometimes to go up and down the stairs with the old man staring at you by his TV who never speaks 😅
5. Everything here is 30%-200% more expensive than next door or street rates.
6. If laundry is 30k per kg, it be 50k here. And outside laundry is delivered in very professional fashion, folded and packed like a dry cleaner in flat pack. But laundry here is not completely folded and packed neatly. It's just kind of thrown together in a big bag like trash.
7. Tailor prices here is 200% higher than other shops in the area. What would be 20 USD, it'd be 50 USD here. So basically, you live here and enjoy no special benefits but special costs instead.

I believe that the shop owner should practice the opposite principles. She should charge street prices + 10-20% off if you live there instead of jacking up extraordinarily. The owner's daughter lives in Pennsylvania USA, so I understand she knows the western cost of living and wants to support her daughter by making good money. However, it goes both ways.

If a simple H&M dress is 20 USD, no one would come to Vietnam to pay 50 USD for that simple plain overall dress. It should have been 10 USD just for a tailor tourist experience in a south Asia country. Basically there's no considerations for the people she's catering to. It's telling but seemingly understandable...

Especially a traditional tailor set of vietnamese outfit for women are so much more complicated and it's only 20 USD... So. She's not being realistic at all...

Unfortunately, the noise levels made it impossible to stay. Roosters started at 2:40 AM, followed by loud chanting from the nearby monks from 4:30 AM to 5:30 AM. By 7:00 AM, heavy construction began right next door.

Check-in was disorganized; I was settled into my room for 15 minutes before being told I had to move to the room next door because of a mistake.

I booked three nights but checked out after only one because I couldn't get any rest.

Chủ có thái độ rất mất dại xem thường khách, chửi khách và nói không chứa đi chỗ khác đi, trong khi đó mình đã book trên app khi lại nói lí do và phải phụ thu thêm khi có bé nhỏ (2 tuổi) bắt buốc phải lấy phòng gia đình. Mình k chấp nhận và đi thì bên homestay gọi lại và kêu mình quay lại để giá 300k, nhưng khi quay lại thì bắt mình lấy giá 370k k hiểu tại sao mình hỏi tại sao báo giá 300k con mới quay lại giờ lại báo giá khác, chủ nói thôi có mấy chục ngàn con ở đại đi mình k chịu thì bị chửi và kêu đi chỗ khác k chứa, phòng thì cũng tạm tạm vì đã củ kỹ chứ k đc ok mấy mà còn thái độ k tốt, mong mọi ng cân nhắc trước khi đặt.

Cockerell next door made a racket at random times of night and noisy building work in the house prevented a much needed siesta.

Very minor thing here: The soundproofing in the room isn't that good, so you do hear a fair bit of horns, etc. It's an older building, so it's to be expected in all honesty. It wouldn't put me off staying again, which I'll likely be doing next time I'm there!

Khi ra ngoài, nên mở cửa sổ để phòng thông thoáng hơn. Nhưng nếu có mưa bất chợt thì nước mưa có thể hắt vào phòng qua cửa sổ.

I don’t know if all rooms are the same but I got a very damp, mouldy room with a damp odour both in the room and on bedding, and ended up sick for my week in Hoi An. A proper steam fan in the bathroom is badly needed to dry the room out after showering. There was also construction over the road starting early in the mornings. Air con and lamp also didn’t work. An uncomfortable week even though the location was good.

Nothing to dislike really
