Merely Homestay
Description
This is a family-run homestay a short bike ride from the old town, built for travelers who want comfort and warmth over a generic hotel box. Rooms are clean, quiet, and roomier than expected, with comfortable beds and a warm, welcoming feel from the family who runs it. It suits people prioritizing a good night’s sleep and personal service over being right in the center.
Breakfast is included and comes with fresh coffee, and Cuong and the team will happily adjust meals for dietary needs like gluten-free. Bicycles are free to use, and scooter rental can be arranged on site, both handy since the walk into town runs about 20 minutes (roughly 10 by bike). Reception operates 24 hours, WiFi and TV are solid, shower pressure is strong, and they stock guests with bottled shampoo and shower gel. A night here can run as low as 12 USD including breakfast, though rooms vary so ask what’s available before booking.
Compared to pricier options nearby, this one overdelivers on hospitality and extras like bikes and drinking water for the road. Skip it if being inside old town walking distance matters more to you than value and quiet; otherwise this is the pick, and it’s worth booking ahead since word has gotten around.
