Reviews
A really great company 👍🏼 I was a bit nervous about the shared bunks, but I ended up with some really nice people we chatted with until 2 AM 😅 It was a cool experience!
was a little skeptical at first on home comforting an experience this would be, but I was pleasantly surprised. staff was very kind and the beds were comfy. it’s a little loud, but I guess that is to be expected. for a little more money the staff arranged for a private car from the train up to sapa with the nicest driver.
lovely design and a great experience for the family to travel over night from Hanoi to Sapa. lounge was full and we couldn’t use it.
