GO SAPA HOSTEL

Featuring a bar, the hostel is close to several noted attractions, around 1.2 km from Sa Pa Lake, 700 metres from Sa Pa Stone Church and 1 km from Sa Pa Bus Station. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen, room service and currency exchange for guests. We got there early, still dark, and were able to sleep in the comfy lobby chairs, which even have blankets. Then we got a free upgrade to a private room since he figured we are a couple. Sooooo nice! Everything was clean and the private rooms have really good amenities and views!!! It was pretty quiet (low season to be fair) and we personally were hoping for a bit more lively atmosphere in the restaurant or the common area (which is really nice with lots of games btw.).
