One of several options in Lao Cai
Check in was "interesting". We were initially given a room that was already occupied! When we reported this we were given a key to another room that didn't work. On the third try we got lucky. Room was fine with choice of Wifi or cable internet. We chose cable for security because the wifi appeared to be completely unsecured.
At breakfast there was a blaring TV competing with background music. I have drunk coffee in many parts of Vietnam but this place served the first cup of undrinkable coffee I have ever experienced in this country.
It is possible to hike to Lao Cai station from this hotel, but we chose a taxi.

Sapaly
Our destination was Sa Pa. This hotel was far from there, on the foot hill near Chinese border. It takes an hour taxi ride every day to Sa Pa.
There's no neighborhood restaurants or shopping around the hotel.
There's no concierge service at all.
Breakfast was good the 1st day, then deteriorated when they only served you eggs, toast and thick/bad coffee or sugary juice drink. Servers' English were very poor, could not understand much.
