The room is OK. It is not far from Hanoi Railway Station, we can walk, but the location in Google Map is wrong. The hotel should change the location in Google Map.
My flight was reschedule to earlier time so I reached the hotel early. At the time of check in they did not mention any extra fees for earlier check in but next day during check out they asked to be paid more money. Also, I understand if there is an issue with early check in when the rooms are not available but the room was already empty and ready with no guest waiting to move out. No idea why they had issue checking me in little earlier. Also the room is very small and congested.
