The hotel is in the Old Quarter surrounded by little shops selling anything from table mats, purses, footwear, Vietnamese coned hats that you see the locals wearing. Breakfast buffet was great - enjoyed the noodle soup every morning plus a variety of filling choices. Staff is super friendly and smiling. Stayed 3 nights and tried both their foot massage/full body massage for 45 minutes-1 hour each and it was great!!! If all 8 chairs are full and even the tables, you are able to wait at the counter. I was even served tea. Super reasonable for about $10 US for an hour. There are a couple of computers available in the lobby for you to check your e mail for free. If you have trouble getting started the bell boys are very helpful. Not fancy but was VERY Clean and safe with capable staff. The best thing is that you can use US dollars so bring lots of small bills. It beats counting all the zeroes on their currency and converting the exchange rate of the Vietnamese dong.
