Nothing

La Ava's Home is perfectly located in the Old Quarter - everything is within walking distance! The room itself was clean, spacious, and felt just like home. But the real star is Ava, the host! Super kind and helpful, she recommended attractions, restaurants, and even let us check in early after a long bus ride. We loved it so much we extended our stay! Highly recommend for anyone visiting Hanoi.

Nothing!

Best place you could ever stay at in Hanoi - most central location, beautifully set up, comfortable beds, quiet but next to everything and such a nice and kind host.

Ava is extremly nice.She even bought my son a cake for this birthday as a suprise. The room was big enough for the 3 of us, clean and bed was very comfortable. The location in the old quarter is perfect. The house is not direct on a street so it is quiet. We extended our stay for 1 night. Highly recommended!

I loved everything. Great introduction to my travels in Vietnam. Am coming back in 2024 but unfortunately there are no rooms available. Memorable experience.

Loved this cute little place. Very quiet and Ava was always responsive and a lovely person. Very caring and always wanting to help. Thank you Ava.

5 floors without a lift, so either travel light or hope for a lower floor. But she helps you carry luggage.

The host is extremely friendly and sweet. She guides you about the best places to visit, eat, drink, shop, currency exchange, whatever u want. Free coffee and unlimited water from her purifier. She allows you to use her kitchen. The rooms are beautiful and clean with very clean private bathroom. She allows you to keep luggage before check in or after check out if u need. Location is in the prime area of Hanoi, close to everything.

Don’t hace an elevetor but the family is very helpful with the luggage. All innone it was not very bad.

Very clean, confortable and quiet. Well located at 2 min walk from the St-Joseph church and lot of restaurants. The family living there are very nice and good poeples. We have been there for only a night between 2 toyrs outside the the town, but it was perfect for a good rest as we needed at the time.

Great location and host! Helped with bus booking

We only stayed one night, great location, in the centre but quiet, Ava is very supportive and helpful. Be ready to climb stairs 😜

Nothing, everything was good.

It’s very cozy, clean and comfortable. It’s very close to the lake in the center but in a back alley, so it’s still very quiet at night. I’d definitely recommend it!

Nothing, but please note that there are no elevator at the property so you might need to hand-carry your luggages all the way up. One minor thing that I'd like to add is maybe to ads more pillows in the room, but this is just my personal opinion.

Host is amazing and super attentive. She was extremely helpful and provided me with list of places we should visit and activities to do. Room was clean and felt homey. Prime location but in an alley so not too noisy. Would totally recommend this property if you're staying around the Old Quarter.

Room faced a neighbour, who was in the middle of renovations. He started being loud at 6.40 in the morning so forget about sleeping in. He didn't stop until 11pm with the noise. It was really anoying.

Room was really cute and nicely decorated. The owner was really caring and nice. She gave us all the information about the area. Room was ok and clean, bathroom could be cleaner.

Nothing, it was just what we needed for a short stay in Hanoi.

If you want a good value stay in a very central and buzzing location, I recommend La Ava's Home. Tucked away on a quiet backstreet you get an undisturbed sleep, but within minutes can walk to the buzzing old quarter. Ava is super hospitable and gave us plenty of recommendations. Book here!

Ava is a fantastic host. She is easy to communicate with, speaks great English and has fantastic food and sight seeing recommendations. The room was so clean and big. It has everything you need for a great stay!

I was surprised that no one was there to greet me upon arrival. I had to go upstairs to find the owner in her room and she had her son bring me to my room instead of introducing herself or welcoming me. It was later (10pm) but I had let her know I would be arriving later. The sound proofing isn’t great, so you can hear all of the traffic noise. Also, not the fault of the owner and I didn’t deduct any points for this but there was construction every morning starting between 7-7:30am, going all day. I had to wear noise cancelling headphones to be in the room. Also, not a big deal, but I would have appreciated a knock before coming into the room for service. I wasn’t really sure if and when I was going to get room service. This wasn’t made clear. There were small details that weren’t attended to. The lighting is harsh and the lamp by the bed didn’t work. The fridge wasn’t plugged in. The toilet paper wasn’t in the bathroom.

Great location near the lake, restaurants, and sites. Able to walk to most places. Free water, fridge, kettle Hot shower Comfortable bed and sheets Owner provided recs through WhatsApp.

Ava's home was perfect, and Ava and her daily are very sweet. The location is perfect - in the center of the Old Quarter yet in a quiet street. The room was very nicely decorated, spacious and confortable. Very nice shower, with great pressure and hot water, and there was coffee, tea and a kettle in the room for the morning. Ava was also very helpful, always quick to answer her phone whenever we had a question. She also helped us book bus ticket and taxis. We stayed there twice, and will not hesitate to go again whenever in Hanoi. I cannot recommand this place more!

Ava is a great host! Much appreciated stay in her House and made a good use of her indications.

We got a message just a few hours before arriving that our room would not be available for the first night because the host just had a baby recently and her mother needed somewhere to stay. She did offer to put us up in her friend's homestay for one night, but we felt more comfortable booking accommodation on our own instead. Also, the shower situation could be improved. Having lived in SE Asia for 6 years now, the concept of a wet room is not new to us, but this one was just not up to par. The water did not drain properly and poor ventilation in the bathroom meant that it took forever for the rest to evaporate from the floor.

The room was clean, and the location was convenient, but the highlight was Ava herself. She had excellent recommendations and was extremely responsive to any question or concern we had. When we mentioned it was cold in the room, she got us a heater ASAP. She also helped us book our transportation to Ninh Binh for a great price. Thank you so much!

I personally liked the exercise but you’ll be walking up stairs. If you have bad knees, you probably want to look elsewhere.

Wonderful location on a quiet back street. The room was large, well furnished and comfortable

Everything was great.

Good location, clean & spacious room, hot water for the shower (& nice products) a comfortable bed and a fridge and kettle. Even a heater which was fab on our 1st (& only) cold night! (Air con in the room too) And ... the host!!! We needed help with printing out some emails & Ava was SO helpful & dealt with it very speedily & at a very far price. Thank you SO much for all your help Ava. Really appreciated.
