| Looking for a midrange place to stay in Hanoi. Any ideas? I'm a solo, female, by the way. |

I've been there twice, and spent a month there one of those times. I can't remember where I stayed. But stay as close as you can to the LAKE and to the FRENCH QUARTER. Tons of hotels/hostels/etc. all over the place in that area. Just take your pick as to where you stay - I didn't see much difference in one from another.
Your hostel link looks fine - looks very social and you could quickly check out others in the vicinity (if its in the French Quarter area). |

Good advice. The area behind Highlands Coffee (on the 3rd floor of a large building on the lake's north edge) is packed with lodging.
I stayed at Gia Bao and it was a fucking awesome hotel. Loads of thick towels, power shower, all the complimentary tioletries you can imagine, super clean, and free breakfast buffet.
They will haggle if you stay a few days. I got a suite room for $20/night. It was heaven.
North east side of the lake....
