We traveled around Hanoi and Sapa for 2 weeks and stayed at 5 hotels. Unfortunately, this was the one with the poorest service.
The hotel felt overly strict. Even though our room was ready, they insisted that check-in could not be before 14:00 unless we paid an extra fee. We were also required to sign an agreement stating that we would be responsible for any damaged or missing items. Being asked to sign this kind of agreement itself left a very bad impression. I have never had to sign such an agreement at any hotel in my life. In contrast, the other 4 hotels made us feel genuinely welcomed, cared for, and were always helpful.
The room design was nice, but the toilet often needed to be flushed 2–3 times, the shower leaked badly, and there was a strong drain smell in the bathroom.
Breakfast was very basic.
Overall, for this price, there are many better hotels to choose from in Hanoi.
