This is not a classy place but, for the price, it gets a 5 blob rating from me.  We had bay view balcony rooms.  You could sit out there for ages watching the ceaseless boat activity in the beautiful harbour.  The room was large and had air con, a refrigerator and a power socket near the bed to charge my phone.  WiFi and internet access were good.  

The bathroom lets the room down as it’s a wet room with no separation of the shower.  I used a spare towel as a foot mat after showering.  At reception, I asked for, and was given without hesitation, a spare sheet so that I could have a top and bottom sheet on my bed.  I don’t understand what the management’s expectation is.  Perhaps it’s usually so warm that people sleep without a top cover. 

You can have breakfast nearby.  We didn’t regret spending an extra few minutes walking to Quiri Pub where we’d also had a truly excellent dinner and cocktails the night before.  

I could really look forward to staying at Phu Thanh and eating at Quiri again.

For value and fabulous views from a bay view room, I doubt this hotel can be beaten.

Excellent view and away from party hostels. Good value for money if you book the sea view rooms. No breakfast but you can have an excellent one next door at “Like Coffee” Cafe (opens at 8 am).  Laundry service. 

Book the sea view room. 

My sea-view room on the 9th floor was clean, neat, and comfortable, and came with a stunning view over Cat Ba Bay. The owner is friendly, courteous, and speaks good English. He is able to help arrange tours. The hotel doesn't serve breakfast, but with so many places to eat nearby that's not a problem. Excellent value.

Great room, great location, great view

Pretty much the only positive with this place. Would have given it a three star as the bedroom on the eighth floor was fine and the view was amazing, even in the rain.  It’s a cheap hotel and does the job but really doesn’t warrant excellent or very good. Totally average.

The two star rating is because of the bathroom. Absolutely awful. Two towels for a four person room. A member of staff didn’t believe us and had to come and check before he handed over more! The bathroom door only shut from the outside. There were loose tiles fitted beneath the counter the sink sat within. Two of these fell off whilst one of our group was washing her hands - one fell onto her foot! An easily avoidable accident caused by very poor maintenance. If you aren’t travelling on a tiny budget then avoid staying here. 

If you book, get a room with a sea view 

Let's start with the positive point this hotel has: the view. But to be honest, as long as you get a sea side room, that's something they cannot mess up. Nature took care of it for them.
On TripAdvisor and other sites, this hotel is marked as non-smoking, but when entering our room, you could smell cigarette smoke, there was an ash tray provided by the hotel on the table, and there were several cigarette burns (holes) in our sheets on the bed.
I stopped counting the amount of bugs I killed during our 1 night stay when I reached 30. They just kept coming from under our bed. The biggest one (about 3cm) we left where we crushed it, on the wall, hopefully for the cleaning staff to get the message.
Any possible explanation the hotel might give for an "unexpected and out-of-our-control bug infestation does not explain the rest of the lack of hygiene: circular coffee mug stains on the leather sofa, splashes and drops of something I hope was "just coffee" against furniture and walls, ballpoint markings on the sofa, a bathroom that was obviously not cleaned since there were layers upon layers of water stains all over the sink and mirror,....
Don't expect a good sleep either, the mattresses are rock hard.
I can absolutely not recommend this place.
