We’ve been to Bac Ha before and this was just a stop through visit so picked our accommodation based on reviews. Personally we didn’t find enough value to say this was 5 star, the room was comfortable and family were pleasant but for 500k VND we’ve had better value.

Simply brilliant!!! I think you get the...
