    Zostel was recommended to me by a friend. I happily stayed there three times during my time in northern Vietnam. The staff is kind and extremely willing to help you out with whatever problems or questions you have and will make you feel at home. Location is very convenient and the building has a nice rooftop with bean bags where you can cozily enjoy a movie on tuesdays or fridays. If you need a nice place to crash in the old quarter then don't hesitate to come Zostel.

    When I checked into the female-only dorm, one of the staff was sleeping on another bed in the room. When he got up, he folded up the comforter and left the dirty sheets on the bed! The bathroom stinks and the old shower wand is filthy. It was 58 degrees Fahrenheit and they had not heat and windows open. Even by Cietnam standards, the bed was rock hard. Walk to everything in Hanoi from here. They had good wifi.

    Something Can't be solved by friendly”

    After waiting for a quite long time after I arrived hotel, the staff said there was no bed for me (there was another traveller telling them that his bed was taken at the same time). Although they were trying to solve the problem by offering me another place to stay for 1 night, and come back to the hotel tomorrow, it was very far from the town unlike he said it was "close" , and I paid for the Uber myself to get back to there. They gave me many excuses such as it was because of my late show up, and someone was sick so they let her stayed 1 more night, totally not acceptable because check-out time is always earlier than check-in time. How can they be so sure that I will not show up at the time she has to check out? Obviously that is not a good booking management. I chose this hotel because of the good reviews, yes, the staff were friendly, but if I go to Hanoi again, I won't choose here to stay again. There're totally much more choice you can makein Hanoi.

    Not worth the price ”

    Stayed in a double bedroom. On arrival, blanket was not changed as I could clearly see all the stains, dirt on it and one of the key indicator is the awful smell. On reporting, not so friendly staff did change it though (had to explain the issue via Google translate). Shared ablution is old and may need refurbishment. Don't be surprised if someone leaves something behind in the toilet as I ended up with a bit of flushing and brushing. No elevator so, be mindful with the steps. The location is ideal and wifi is good. Lots of better deals on cheaper prices in the same area.
