Cheap accommodation good enough for 1 night. Located few minutes of walk from old town. Host family does not speak well in English so some patience is needed to get the things done. Breakfast was too small.

Good enough for 1 night

Avoid this homestay! 

My stay at Hai Dang homestay was very ordinary. English is not widely spoken in the house which can make things very confusing. As it is a homestay you are staying is the same house of the hosting family and are subjected to the noises from them. We were woken up every morning by someone coughing up phlegm at 5 am and then all of the cooking noises from the family as they begin their day. We were also locked out one night and had to call the family to let us in as the key you are given does not work in the front door. The owner also does not know personal space and let herself into our room without knocking when we were in it and basically forced us to check out at 9am when the stated checkout time is 12pm (lunch time). The room is big, the bed is okay. None of the toiletries advertised were available in the room. Had to ask the owner for a bin for toilet paper by acting it out and then had to leave it in the hallway so it would be emptied. The door to the room had large glass panels on them which let in light from the hall, making the room very bright at night. I was a little afraid to turn off the lights in case someone else returned later to the homestay and required them. The shower had very little water pressure it was unable to come out of the shower head forcing you to shower by sitting on the floor under a tap. The basin in the bathroom was about to fall off the wall and had broken away from the drain meaning it basically drained to the floor wetting your feet each time you used it. The shower towels provided were the size of a postage stamp and were not changed the entire length of the stay (4 days) and ended up with a very musty smell. With the limited English it was hard to arrange for new towels. The fridge was very mouldy and we did not want to use it. The included breakfast was 2 eggs, 3 slices of tomato and cucumber and a baguette. The eggs were rather tasteless, you would be better eating out for breakfast. We asked to use the bikes at the house and then at checkout we were charged 30k dong per bike per day which was never said during the process of borrowing them. Many other homestay offer free bikes. When questioning this it was very difficult to determine it was for the bikes due to the limited English. The bikes were in such a state of disrepair they were not worth the money. You could rent new bikes down the road where you could negotiate the price. With little English it was hard to negotiate the price after you have already used the bikes. The homestay is located close to old town which is convenient. At US$10 per night I did not feel this place was good value and would not recommend it. You can find other places in Hoi An for similar prices with better facilities. 

Avoid this homestay 

We found this place online and when we arrived were greeted by one of the ladies there, she didn't speak much english so we had to wait for another lady to show up to help us out. We finally got our room sorted out and were surprised with how good the aircon cooled the room down. It was kind of weird that the bathroom was outside the bedroom but we made it work. On the first day we were there we took a mid day nap and woke up to one of the ladies opening our door to clean the filters out of the A/C. No knock, just came right on in 🙂 And from what we were told by the room next door, they had suspicion someone was coming into their room and turning off the ac each time they left the home because it would always be off when they returned. After that we took our personal gear with us each day and kept just our clothing and basic stuff at the homestay. Each morning the traffic woke us up at 6:30am, there was construction going on across the street.  There also was no blanket offered (just a flat sheet), We stayed here for 4 nights and they offered the same breakfast each and every morning (which after the second day the baguette, fried eggs and same fruit got kinda old). At night the family gathered downstairs and you could here them from the top floor where our room was and the son cries a lot morning, mid day and night so we kept the tv on to kind of drown out the sound. The hardest thing about our stay here was the language barrier with the owners, only one lady spoke english and seemed to be gone most of the time so when we had a question or needed something we had to wait for her to come back. We tried to use our translator app on the phone but they didn’t want to use it and insisted we wait for the lady to return.

Good Location but not that good

The hostel is by far the cheapest in Hoi An, but after arriving we did regret we did not book a more expensive one. The room was a bid dirty but oke. We did not get any towels and hot water. Also people came in our room several times without asking permission. I think the owners really do there best, but just don't know how to run a good hostel. 

Hostel is nothing more than oke

It was kind of weird to stay in this hostel. There were baby's crying all day and the people did not speak a word English. There is no hot water, no towels and when we arrived there was no blanket. The blanket we received after asking was dirty.  We booked a private room; however, sometimes someone opened the door to sneaky look into our room. The other day they wanted our key from our bikes to park them inside. But we were still planning to go somewhere in the evening (which we told them), so we had to climb over the fence and walk all the way. Also we did not get our change after we paid for the two nights. It was one of the worst hostels yet in my 6 months in Asia. It is cheapest in Hoi An though..

Not that good

We stayed 2 nights at Hai Dang Homestay. Our room and the bathroom were clean. There was hot water and the water pressure was great! The wifi didn't work very well from our room and we had to stay in the lounge on the same floor to enjoy it.
The hotel is not located near the Old Town but there is only a 15 min walk -that we enjoyed- to reach the center.
We had a nice free breakfast: eggs, baguette, banana and coffee in the terrace at the back of the house and in front of the river.
The family was nice - even though they would sometimes have a look in our room without asking for a permission and while we are in it - but the children were really loud. It was a bit difficult to communicate as only one person spoke English but we enjoyed our stay.
FYI we booked the night on Agoda and paid directly. The money was taken from our bank account but when we arrived, the receptionist asked for our card details so that she could take the money from Agoda. She said she didn't get anything from them yet. But this resulted in a second withdrawal from our bank. We told her what happened and she kindly said she would deal with it. In the end we stayed one more night and she just had to keep the extra money she charged us the day before.
