In essence I like this Hotel.I have stayed in far far worse in Hanoi for about the same price. Yes its a bit dated.... but the tv works as does the internet. The shower has some water pressure and the room is generally pretty pleasant.
Its not ultra convenient but its not miles away either. The Lakeside Bar on the roof is fantastic although a little pricey.
Overall I enjoyed the hotel. The service was a little 'hit-and-miss' but then again so is most of Hanoi. In all I'd say its a comfortable hotel... not 5 star.. but a pleasant place to stay should you find yourself in Hanoi.
