Description
About 800-metres from the town centre along the road toward Lai Chau, this relatively new place (built in 2005 or so) is definitely in the category of 'If you build it they will come'. We detected no signs of any guests on our visits, but there was a truck using the parking lot as a repair station. It's in a good location, on a rise at the edge of town, but stirring views of the rice fields are only available if you're standing in the hallway. The cement-walled rooms are a bit damp (but then, this is a misty mountaintop) and feature decent furnishings, desks, table and chair sets, rose-coloured tile floors, some stucco decorative touches, and pretty good shower bathrooms. The prices are outrageous, but you've got no option if you're spending the night here. The staff speak very, very little English, and seemed astonished at the mere sight of a potential customer.
