이 호텔은 가격 대비 훌륭한 가치가 있으며, 직원들에 대해 충분히 칭찬할 수 없습니다! 모두 친절했고, 제가 택시에 가방을 두고 내렸을 때(모든 귀중품이 들어 있는) 도와주기 위해 최선을 다했습니다! 한 시간 안에 안전하게 되돌려받았습니다. 호텔은 하노이 중심부에 이상적으로 위치해 있으며, 모든 것이 도보로 이동할 수 있는 거리에 있었습니다. 여행 관련 일을 담당하는 안나는 아주 다정하고 따뜻한 친근한 여성으로 영어를 매우 잘합니다. 여행이나 관광 정보가 필요하면 미아가 도와줄 수 있습니다. 미아는 하노이 힐튼(감옥)을 추천했는데, ...

This place was very nice and quiet, but it’s away from downtown where we wanted to go lots of American food around the hotel unfortunately we wanted Asian food so we had to go very far to get it.
