Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The house is super comfortable, and the shower is lovely. Hot water, good pressure and easy to set the temp. But the greatest about the hostel is Nam. She’s so helpful makes you feel at home right away. Even tho we were two of the few guests it never felt boring to stay here. And she is an amazing cook to. Also the WiFi works really well if that’s important to you. On top of that it’s a more quiet neighborhood with a very lovely vibe.
Summary: Highly recommend
