Hoi An Love.Ly Hostel

Love.ly hostel in little Hoi Ann is definatley a lovely place to stay. Ly and Matt who own the hostel and their team, including Ly's parents all make you feel welcome as soon as you enter the hostel. Shoes/sandals are asked to take off at the door, which is a mark of respect even in my culture and so this continues during your stay. Everyone is respectful, sociable and helpful. The rooms have air conditioning, bathroom has shower gel and shampoo and to rent a towel is 20,000 dong. They offer free beer/soft drinks and a night if playing Cambio the card game. Ly is very, very good as she is fast and wins most games. They also do a family dinner night at 7pm on some days, again all home made by Ly's parents and it is 90,000 dong. Matt is very knowledgeable about the tours that are offered and is honest in giving his advice, as it all is catered to what you want to do, see and get out of the holiday. He helped me book my tours while I stayed there. The location is perfect as you have the famous Queen and Phi for good Bang Mi. You have vegetarian restaurants nearby that was recommended and I too would also recommend. The hostel is a short distance to the river to enjoy a boat ride and place your lantern into the river, as you make a wish. At night it is truly a magical place and a hub for Instagram photo opportunities. An bang beach is about an hour to walk but if you rent the bicycle it is 20 minutes. You definatley should not miss this place on your travels and Love.ly hostel is a great place to stay.

Matt & Ly made this place better than a home. Family dinners and free beers and the best type of hostel-goers made for an incredible stay. I actually extended twice just because of the hostel... Though Hoi An was great too :)

The staff is really friendly and walks you through the nearby attractions. There are lots of tours and activities available. The food in the hostel is delicious. Highly recommend the avocado coffee. However, my favorite part was the social scene in the hostel. The downstairs area is perfect for meeting other travelers. It's not a party hostel, but it's a great place to meet others.

This place is one of a kind, the people are the best and the family dinner is such a nice vibe. Everything was clean and well organised. They helped me book a cooking-class and an easy-rider to Hue, which were both the best! You should stay here!
