Great hostel near the airport. Very nice staff to help with any question. There is a transfer from the airport to the hotel and back. Transfer is cheaper than a taxi from the airport

Khai Homestay is one of the best places we stayed whilest in Vietnam. We warmly recommend this familiar, super friendly and helpful and perfectly clean place. The family is warmhearted and welcoming. The room offers all you need, the bed is very comfortable. The shared bathroom is spacious and was super clean and got cleaned very often which was great. Thanks for everything. :)

Fantastic! I enjoy my time there a lot. I was greeted by excellent lake view in the morning and closed the day with amazing sunset. I felt peaceful while staying with the cozy, private space but with vibrant lifestyle. I had chance to talk and share with other guests. Overall, this place made my trip, it gave me a lot of experience and feelings!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    One of the best hostels I've stayed at in Asia! The hostel is really beautiful with great facilities e.g. a hair dryer and a pool to use. The staff are really friendly, they let me check-out late, they stored my luggage for me whilst I did the loop, and they let me change the dates of my booking last minute. The beds are comfortable with a bedside light and storage locker as well as lockers big enough for my 55L bag. Great location. Really enjoyed the free walking tour which helped me meet other travellers.

    Great hostel, great location and staff is available for any questions you could have and speak good English. We booked a room as we were just arriving in Vietnam for a long trip, the room was good, confortable and clean. The rooftop is the place to go if you want to meet some backpackers and take a drink! Definitely recommended

    Great location, hostel has only one room with 3 level bunk beds, it is a little difficult to climb to the 3rd level bed. Otherwise good, cheap, clean, right in the middle of old town.
