The Banana Tree Hostel

Beautiful area, close to restaurants and shops and attractions

Great atmosphere, totally value for money.

The Hostel is close to everything and very central. Also, the beds are big and the rooms have a lot of extra space. The bathrooms are distante from the rooms and very uncomfortable to take a shower

Location is central quite convenient. For the hostel itself so busy and the open areas are almost occupied. Everything comes with additional cost, like even getting hot drinking water charge 10k, bike 50k, only accept cash, staff has no emotion except the guy who is little fat he is nice. No breakfast. And the price in restaurant and bar is much higher than outside. Overall not value for money.

Sadly, the beg bug situation. I took videos and photos that I sent to the staff. I’m not 100% sure it was bedbugs and did not get any bites, but they did act very quickly to solve this situation. Upon looking at other reviews. I did see that some mentioned bedbugs

Good a/c, personal fan inside every bed cabin We had an early morning Monday morning. People were partying till about 1 am Sunday night jumping into pool and shouting and it was difficult to sleep. Staff seemed to have done nothing yo stop it.

Nothing it was great.

The location and the view The mattresses have plastic covers and are very noisy. I woke up every time I moved. The bathrooms are very minimal, the shower didn't even have enough pressure.

Location and staff! No free breakfast and extremely commercial minded! Money, money and money!

Great facilities, friendly helpful staff, lovely outdoor area ! We arrived at 4am and couldn’t check in until 2pm so we had to sleep on bean bags in the lobby !

Very spacious and comfy beds. Hot shower. Staff is super friendly!

the shower in the room, the water was either burning hot or cold.

The staff we’re really nice and helpful! The food was great and the room was very clean

Very central location with easy access to tours, food, nightlife and biking paths. Nice pool. Comfortable beds with spacious lockers. Friendly staff. The showers were gross at times. The drain was fully plugged in one of the showers one night. Advertised 24/7 reception but when I arrived at 3am and wanted to book a room, there was no staff there that could assist me.

We liked our private 4 dorm room quite a lot. It was also a very convenient location, & there were running paths and bike paths nearby This particular hostel was full of 18 year olds, it was very noisy. It depends on the vibe you’re looking for, but we didn’t necessarily enjoy that aspect

I love this place ! I’m so happy to stay there, food is very good, drinks a very good prices, the staff was always helping me, very clean place and lot of people to meet ! I did some good friends ? I’ll back there if in Ninh Binh definitely ? All was perfect !

do not rent the scooters from them, they are extremely unreliable walk down the street and get them elsewhere.

Facilities are super clean, good water pressure in the showers, location is great, and the pool was very nice too. Would be good if they had some soap in the showers

Nothing

very young crowd, not the most comfortable bed (but standard for Vietnam), food/drinks are way overpriced, no organized events.
