2. Village House: Price range: 125,000 VND – 450,000 VND (6 USD – 20 USD)

Village House is literally a home to me. I remember the first time I arrived in this area. It was dark at night and all the famous homestays nearby were completely full, so I was quite nervous. Luckily, this homestay was available. The moment I came to this house, I was a little bit surprised. It was way bigger than what I expected. One of the owners told me that his homestay is the combination of two houses – his house and his relative’s house.

The dorm rooms are spacious, clean, and they even have separate bathrooms. The private rooms offer personal bathrooms, air-conditioners, hot showers, free wifi, and mini cupboards for drinks. Another unexpected thing was that I booked a dorm bed at first, but the house nearby was under construction, so the owner proactively moved me to a private room. He was even kind enough to not charge me another penny!

I sat on a chair near the Son river to relax and enjoyed nature from dusk till dawn. Another great point is that the house includes free breakfast which is out of this world! They have a wide range of food, such as banana pancakes, stir-fried noodles, and pho. When I left, the chef even gave me an extra banana pancake.
