The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. They even arranged two different taxi pickups to the airport for our group of friends free of charge. The location was convenient being very close to the airport. The room was spacious, modern, and very comfortable. I'd easily stay there again!

This capsule hostel is brand-new, modern, and sparkling clean, with cozy capsules that are both private and comfortable. The staff are warm and friendly, always ready to help with anything you need. What makes this place special is not only the design but also its unbeatable location – right in the Old Quarter, just a 2-minute walk to the famous Train Street and the vibrant local food street. It’s more than just a stay – it’s a fun and unique experience, especially if you’re traveling with friends or in a group. Highly recommended for those who want comfort, convenience, and something different in Hanoi.

It is a brand new hostel that has private rooms and dorm rooms for couples/ females and mix options. Nicely decorated everything is new and clean. They have food such as sandwich, coffee, smoothies, juice. Manager Jonathan is a real gentleman. Him and Johnny can assist you with tours information/organization too. I strongly recommend you stay here. You would not only be pleased but also would have good friends such as Jonathan and Johnny.

The staff are friendly. The hostel is so neat and tidy. It was one of the cleanest hostels I've stayed in, and I've been traveling for 5 months now. They served a good breakfast included in the stay and they make some amazing cocktails. It was truly a pleasure to stay here. Met a few fellow travelers, they all had great things to say about there stay. You won't find anything better in the area. With bars and food right on the door step. So many choices. From Mexican to Indian food and local venders. It's right in the heart of walking Street with a circleK a barber near by and Train Street in less than a minutes walk. Thank you Rebel Rooster

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little 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
