Le was just great, she helped me in all I needed, it was my first time in vietnam and she already knew what I was gonna need and gave me all tips to make my experience better. She also made traditional food for us and showed us how to make those delicious dishes and good also Vietnamese coffee. I would recommend her to everyone since she made me feel like being in a real family house.

Lee is the most helpful host we ever had. Her home is lovely: the garden offers a beautiful piece of nature, the rooms are very cosy, the whole ambiance is respectful and welcoming. As a couple, we recommand Ginger Homestay.
