Pros:

不清楚老板为何信任一个在每个服务环节都试图偷懒的员工, 同样的SPA服务, 从外面店里电话约过来的服务就很好, 当这个店里留下只有一个总想偷懒的员工后,真的促成了赶紧离开念头,虽然这个社区和客栈的位置很好,而且怀着体谅的心最后却遭遇非常不尊重和欺骗的言行!

Cons:

对卫生和服务细节有要求的真的别选这家

Amazing host, beautiful place
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at this homestay. Hue is incredibly sweet and welcoming, and she personally takes care of everything. She did her absolute best to make us feel comfortable, always running around to help with a smile. The place is very cozy, the atmosphere is lovely, and the view is absolutely beautiful. We truly enjoyed our time here.

Pros:

It’s a nice and very calm place with beautiful surroundings, a lot of hiking possibilities around. Breakfast was different every day and always delicious. Owner and her family are very nice. Room is basic but you have everything what you need. Be prepared for a rooster wake-up call - this is the village life. I extended my stay for a few days.

Good
Pros:

The lady was so lovely, she made us lunch one day and it was really cold so she gave us extra blankets which were so warm and cozy!

Cons:

The room was dark and sooooo cold. It was a loft conversion with some gaps in the ceiling. Lots of cobwebs and spiders and no windows. Also the balcony was technically there.. but I don't know if you can really count it as a room with a balcony. Toilet is downstairs and outside which is slightly inconvenient too. Really far from Sapa town. In this location you can't move 10 feet without a Hmong lady harassing you.

Awesome stay but not in winter
Pros:

Incredible location, scenery, and absolutely lovely service from Chin. It’s this kind of a place where u just wanna forget about everything. Great breakfast, awesome massage, herbal baths.. and a wonderful spa overall.

Cons:

As much as I loved this place, some things need to be corrected since a lot of information on Booking.com is misleading.

Private rooms do not have bathrooms; they are outside, and you have to walk downstairs from the first floor.

Additionally, private rooms offer very little privacy due to walls made of bamboo, meaning there is no noise isolation between the rooms and the outside world. If you’re visiting in winter, be aware that it will be very cold.

Great homestay and welcoming people
Pros:

The homestay's manager, Chin, welcomed us with a smile. We went together to the market to pick some fresh food and cooked Vietnamese food for dinner.
The property is nice in general, with a great vibe, and with a kitchen you can use to cook your meal if you ask.

Cons:

There is no heating but only a fireplace in the kitchen so it gets easily cold in all the property. Ask for more blankets if you are here in winter.

Nice alternative from busy Sapa town
Pros:

I stayed in a room away from the Charm Spa within a family guesthouse which was unexpected but had access to the Charm Spa facilities. We enjoyed a lovely dinner with the family on the first night.

The room itself was very basic but also reflective of the price. The staff were friendly especially Chin who was very helpful and friendly. She really went above and beyond to make my stay a comfortable one.

Cons:

There was no lock on my door and because I was staying within the family home, someone opened my door after a night out. Genuine mistake though and they apologised.

Had an amazing 5 day stay
Pros:

Friendly staff.
Beautifully located in the mountains
Near a beautiful river
Excellent food
I was looked after when I was sick, so I felt safe whilst being on my own in a strange country
Hot herbal bath is a great treat
Having a massage when you want is also great.
Good WiFi. I am a digital nomad so good internet is important
I met nice people who I connected with and actually continued travelling with for a few days

Cons:

If you travel in winter it is cold. Rooms are not heated. As in most places by the way. There is a fire in the kitchen and no isolation. Which is also normal in this country. Internet does not prepare you for this. The temperature in winter is much colder than I read online.
So take winter clothes. I had one warm day. Rain and a lot of fog.

Charming stay, relaxing ambience, perfect dinner, and helpful staff
Pros:

The whole experience was incredible! Booking and checking in was very easy. I had my questions answered in advance and the staff was very communicative. When I arrived, I immediately sat by the fire and received some tea. The bedroom has a very thick cozy blanket and the heating pad on the bed was already turned on. I'm glad I asked about dinner. I added dinner for an extra 150k and it was SO worth it. Oh my gosh the food was exactly what I had hoped for!!! I had a very small lunch from trekking so I was very hungry and got to eat a lot. The food was amazing and there was a fabulous mix of spring rolls, chicken with lemon grass, salad, and bean sprouts. The breakfast was very charming and the view is incredible (I woke up to some sunshine which was nice). There's soothing music inside and everything was very relaxing. I asked to do a bath after hiking around that day. I came back for a very relaxing bath (the tub is very comfy). And then the staff coordinated a motorbike to bring me back to Sapa (for 100k which is the best price you'll see). Honestly, I wish I could have stayed longer just to enjoy the vibe and charm of the village.

Cons:

Outside of the bed, I was still a little chilly, but that's also because it's winter and I have a small cold. I wish I wasn't sick so I could have stayed longer!!
