Mika is very kind and friendly, he helps you with everything he can, he tells you the best places to eat locally and he helped me find a place to store the motorcycle at night. The only bad thing will be the price for the room I had. Was small, maybe more cheap will be perfect.

There are no personal lockers (but there front door is usually locked)

Mika was very nice and helpful. The homestay is a bit hard to find but it was easy with her directions. The rooms are clean and quiet, beds comfortable as well. Very affordable. Location is about 40 minutes on foot or 10 minutes by Grab Taxi from the Old Quarter. The city center gets very crowded at night, so it was nice to stay somewhere quiet. I saw basically no other tourists in the area, so the experience felt very authentic.

The accomodation is very basic and small. You only have a thin matresses and rooms dont have a window. So its perfect if you only wanna sleep here, but not very good if you want to spend half of your day here. You should find a hostel or hotel in this case.

I really liked the location: it is in a local neighborhood, yet close to the center. The value for price is pretty good and the host is very helpful. You have a lot of good streetfood place nearby.

I had a lovely time here at Mika's place. She showed me street food around the corner and great walking tours. She was really helpful and fantastic person. For me it was a great experience to live as a local in a cozy and quiet place.

Mika was kind enough to take me to the local vendor for dinner, and banhmi with meat was so delicious. The location was a bit confusing, but she sent me a good indication and I did not have a problem at all. And it is not located in touristic place so that I could enjoy local atmosphere. The room which I stayed was a single room, and it was so clean, with good AC, the shower had hot water.

Some local folks were very hardworking in the evening (9-10pm) but nothing that earplugs won't solve :)

Cozy little place with everything you need. Bed, WC and shower. You can go there anytime you want and you feel like living with the locals. Place is "hidden" and I loved it. Mika the owner is also very friendly and helpful giving tips for great food around the homestay.

Please manage your expectations and be realistic with what you can get for this price in Ha Noi.

This was my second stay here. So obviously I enjoyed it.

It can be noisy in the morning as the Viet people wake up early and honk with their bikes. ALSO !!! dont expect that you get a 3* hotel for the price !!!

I love the homestay and even came back for my second night which consisted of 3 nights. The location is just perfect. Travelers that like the authentic Vietnamese life will be more satisfied staying here in this area. It is much more authentic and Mika has great reccomendations. I don't need a lot to feel good in a place that I mainly use for sleeping so this place was perfect for me because the price is very low and has all the necessities you need,

The location is wonderful in the allyways in Hanois city . The host is friendly and helpful. And in a noisy city the room is very quiet, big bonus.

I was only uncomfortable at the beginning of the night because my duvet was damp and didn't smell too good, as it had just been washed. Mika tried to helped me and gave me another sheet, which was also damp, but it was more comfortable. I slept good anyways!

It was so cool to follow the instructions to arrive to the homestay, located in a super authentic local neighborhood. The best part was being greeted by the lovely people staying here who kindly offered me some bruschetta and wine. Amazing vibes in this place!

I had an amazing stay at Mika's. She is so caring! I had just landed in Hanoi and she helped me with my day to day plans. It is in a great location.

It IS a bit outside the city so it was very annoying when I wanted to take guided tours bc the buses only pick up in the city center. The bed was a bit hard (normal in Vietnam) and the water pressure was very low so the shower wasn't that relaxing. Also it was relatively noisy on the street in the morning, so it's better if you are an early riser. (Also common problem in Vietnam tho)

The landlady is super nice! The private room was in a small side building and was pretty cozy! Good for 1-2 people and I think better for a few days stay, rather than just 1 day. I think the value for money is excellent!

- The homestay is a bit small for that many people - The way to come to my room is not ideal, it’s kinda narrow and it’s hard to take your luggage upstairs

- the hidden location, I really liked it because you’re in a small street, you immerse in Vietnamese life and you can hear local life from your room (and no cars!) - the bed, it’s thin yes but I slept sooo well ! - The host, she’s very sweet and try her best to give you the best experience possible

Mika was very friendly and adjusted to me even though I booked to shortly in advance. I was very thankfull that she let me stay, and the stay itself was great!

The walls seemed a bit thin and thus I could hear some other guests pretty loudly, not so great for light sleepers. The bathroom is quite small.

It's cozy and the host Mika is very kind and gave us a lot of recommendations for places to go.

Don't expect luxury, yet good value.

Great value. Exactly what a budget traveller needs. Good location in a fun and authentic area of hanoi Mika, the host, is friendly and helpful. She will provide many advice and good adresses.

I really enjoyed my stay at Mika's cute home. (Sorry for the late review!). The place is small but cosy, O found the mats on the floor very comfortable, in a Japanese futon style and I slept perfectly. We had a long interesting chat with Mika! She is very attentionate and made herself available to exchange with me which was very valuable to me. Thanks again Mika!

The showroom is too small

I’ve been backpacking for 3 weeks and this hostel is the best ever! The owner, Mika san is so sweet.

The dorm is very cozy and feels almost like being in your room. The bathroom has hot water and there’s also a fridge in the common aera as well as kettle. It’s also provided with a small kitchen with sink. The owner Mika is really friendly and such a nice person, she gives recommendations about what to see in Hanoi and overall it was pleasant to casually chat with her.

I booked a Mika homestay as I wanted to stay away from the old quarter and see the real alley of Vietnam. I hadn't expected the homestay to be that beautiful honestly but it just exceeded my expectations. It was super cozy and beautiful. The bed was so comfortable and soft and I couldn't leave by just staying one night so I extended my stay. The host, Ms. Mika, will definitely be in my Hanoi's best memory. She is so very hospitable and friendly. She added beauty in my stay. Instructions are clearly written and mentioned in the room so you wouldn't need to worry even if she is not around. Things to do/places to visit are clearly mentioned in their insta page. Lots of eateries nearby. Will definitely check in on my next visit.

I'm really excited about this place. It is located in a local neighborhood and you can immerse yourself in the vibe of Vietnamese life. If you're looking for that kind of experience, this is the place to be. Mika is a very pleasant and kind person. I was glad to stay here during my trip.

The house is typical and nice, it's away from the traffic noise just inside some little caratheristic street. Maybe a little hard to find at the first time but not impossible with all the indication Mika gives you, The owner will support you by wattsapp and in person all the time, giving you tips if you need and answering any kind of questions. Very nice at the end
