Ha Noi Holidays Hotel 24 Hang Manh We stayed here in December and again in March. The rooms are clean and in good condition. One room had a door for the bathroom, the other only had a shower curtain which makes for a lack of privacy when you might just need it. The sheets are changed every day by a couple of kind non-English-speaking women who like practicing my daughter's name. Some rooms have showers, others have bathtubs. They provide a free yet filling breakfast, satellite TV, phone, refrigerator, internet (wifi), and plenty of hot water for a bath. Some rooms are windowless, but we like #405 with its wide expanse of windows that overlook the city. The staff is very kid-friendly. Prices range from $15-20/night. Visit their website.   Ha Noi Spirit House 50 Hang Be Our three nights at this hotel were do-able, but not particularly pleasant. The staff didn't seem too keen on kids. The bathroom door didn't shut all the way and was made of frosted glass anyway, so all showers were public (I showered before the kids awoke so I didn't scare them in my naked glory.) The sheets were never changed, they simply re-tucked them for us. We had to ask for towels and toilet paper. Both rooms we stayed in had windows, though one opened to the stairway. They provide free breakfast, satellite TV and one hour of free internet. Not bad for a night or two. Prices range from $15-45/night.
