Halios Luxury Halong Hotel

Bed stinked after two showers I still smell the bed. Even when I sit outside in the rain and wind. Uuugh. Receptionist cool dude offered me the seventh floor with juicy view. Unfortunately a screaming family made me ask for another room. I walked down to the reception and the two shiny welcoming eyes where gone. End of shift. The two eyes that took over the shift where less friendly and promising. Okay, but I can only give you the first level floor (2nd here), because the rest is occupied. My energy felt her hatred smashing in as if I didn't understand what was going on. Okay second floor. Fine by me. I need sleep. And everything the lady passed me by the international anti white men signs flew by. Elbow raising after middle finger scratching on her head. Who scratches with the middle finger without meanings? Dang! So smart as me woke up and stumbled towards the new shift. Friendly guy with another attitude. Professional. No sir, the room on level 6 is not occupied. My answer: and on floor 5 and 4 it's the same isn't it. So, he called with the female manager. And that's where the debunking and victim blaming started. Also the attitude from the reception ex cool dude disappeared. The signals even became worse. They all started to do it. As if suddenly everyone had the flees or itchy skin. But never the less me visiting Viet Numb was a mistake. Thank God it have me inside to not stay a month, but just to check around. See some of Vietnams history. And in seven days I leave the experience there where it belongs. Or else I feel Viet Numbed for the rest of my existence. But I also found what I was looking for and that's the truth. When Liberal people become capitalists they suddenly support communism and feminism. And that's the north of Vietnam. I hope my upcoming throat infection Hanoi gave me is not to harsh. I need vitamins. I need fresh water. I need proper food. Healthy food. Green food. Protein. The breakfast is one to forget about. You get this in hostels or you need to eat noodles in the morning. I personally rather have a lovely release after breakfast. Up to the following accommodation.

very good

Hotel is new and clean. Able to get food and massage nearby but not many choices. Fair price and comes with simple breakfast.

Good hotel they could improve the breakfast... that's the only downside

Good environment

Really nice hotel. It felt 4* and great value for money. The receptionist was great and sorted us out nicely for a ha long boat trip. All round would recommend the stay!
