Legend Home Sapa — Hotel in Sa Pa Ward

How many hotel managers will put you on the back of their motorcycle and take you to various pharmacies, looking for an obscure medicine? How many would give you a lift down to the big market where foreign brands of liquor can be purchased for a fraction of the price of the local tourist outlets? How many would offer you all kinds of advice on every manner of activity, and then make arrangement for you to get it a LOCAL prices? How many would front you some cash on the way out of town, and let you pay it back when you returned? Such is the nature of Mr. Hill (I'm sure I'm misspelling his name, but that's the way it comes out in English - forgive me) who not only became a friend, but regaled us with his award-winning photography during out stay.

Loved my stay and would love to return again, especially during spring or summer to get clearer weather more...

We booked into a tour staying in 3* Hotel for 2 nights. This hotel showed as a 2* on the itinerary. The room smelt, had mould in the bathroom and the bed was like lying on a plank of wood. We had to use other duvets just to pad it a little so we could sleep. On the 2nd night at dinner we asked for another blanket for comfort, they bought this up to our room at 11.15pm waking us up. There is no soundproofing in the hotel, so anyone in the restaurant below or walking around can be heard. The WiFi password had a spelling mistake, which we figured out but is printed on all the door keys and we had trouble with hot water not working. The attached restaurant was good and this review is only...
