Really excellent hospitality - we were treated like members of the family. It's located right next to the bus station, so easy to get to on arrival and easy to get away for your onward journey.

Thank you Van and family, and good luck with...

Read moreWhat a great visit at the Homestay! I stayed upstairs in the traditional wood house. Very cool space.

It's a little outside of town, but very close to the bus station if you're transferring busses. To town by bicycle, or scooter is easy and it's pretty country side.
Highly recommend staying there if you're...
