My fiance and I stayed here May 8th through May 13th, 2013. We came to this guesthouse after a previous guesthouse in Sapa charged us to replace a sink and mirror after the mirror fell off the wall during a shower and broke the sink. The owner of Friendly Hotel is extremely nice and helpful, did not push us into... More

Friendly Hostel is a nice hotel with low prices, but the 2 managers took more money than they first said Twice in 2 days. Once about laundry service, one about bus tickets : it was 150 000 Duong to go to Muang Lay, but their driver ask 200 000 once we were there. So I suggest you not to organise... More

The Friendly is a centrally-located 12 room hotel that caters to budget travellers. The rooms are a bit gaudy (see photo) but comfortable. What's special about Friendly is its young owner, Vu Dinh Tien (mobile phone: 091-237-9503). In a country where true customer service is rare, Tien stands out. If anything you need is missing, if you have a special... More

We are at the end of our month throughout Vietnam and we had a fantastic night at the friendly Sapa restaurant (we did not stay in the hotel). Being on a tight budget, we stuck to what was cheap and what we knew would be good - vietnamese. We ordered five vegetarian spring rolls to share and a bowl of... More

We did not stay in the hotel so have no opinion about accommodation here but on our first night in Sapa, we strolled around and decided to eat here after getting good vibes from the friendly faces that appeared when we were browsing the outdoor menu. At first it seemed like a cozy place with nice ambiance but then we... More

We stayed two nights in April. Views would have been good, but unfortunately weather didn't allow us to see. One guy (the owner?) is really friendly and will do a lot to help. Unfortunately the lady who worked there was the most unfriendly person we came across in the whole of Vietnam. Her standard answer to any request was no.... More
