Nice owners, big beds, everything perfectly clean and foot location. The only thing was that it wasn't social, at least while I was there.

Overall a great experience, beds are wide and comfy, the owner made us feel welcomed and she was also fun. Placement is ideal to walk around town.

An sich ein gutes Hostel aber die Vorhönge fehlen und wenn man in den oberen Betten liegt und umgeben von Fremden ist, kann es komisch sein. Ansonsten sind die Betten super und wirklich groß! Die Sauberkeit ließ zu wünschen übrig also mein Bett war wirklich nicht sauber und die Toiletten auch nicht. Das Frühstück ist okay und die Gastgeberin kann manchmal komisch sein

La gérante est d'une grande gentillesse, on s'y sent bien. Propreté impeccable. Le petit déjeuner est inclus et est différent d'un jour à l'autre. Il y a un rooftop très joli.

The lady owning the hostel is very sweet and took good care of us and the property. There was no family dinner though as not enough guests. this was disappointing as we were looking forward to it

It is a lovely hostel, first night we arrived they did karaoke and gave happy water out and the vibe was fun. It has everything you need, not many places to sit other than the dining room table if you don’t want to sit in your room. No ac or fan in the rooms, luckily the weather was cool when we came otherwise that would have been difficult.

It’s a nice hostel if you like a close knit family vibe. Not advised if you like some flexibility as in where you put your bag in the room and privacy in the bed (there’s no curtains). The host almost tuck people in in the evening / close the curtains / open the window without asking, which felt a bit strange to me, same in the morning where the curtains were opened without checking if anyone was still sleeping, waking me up in the process.

Lovely, accommodating owners who make everyone feel welcome. Nice location and good, comfy beds. Would definitely recommend friends to stay here if they are in Da Lat!

A wonderful family run hostel in a great location. Mrs. Pretty's hospitality is unmatched from anywhere I've been and made everyone feel at home. Not a party hostel but very easy to meet people here, especially during Mrs. Pretty's breakfast!

We had a great stay, the host was extremely friendly and let us check in early and check out late to accommodate our bus schedule. She helped us book a cheap bus ticket and an awesome canyoning tour! We loved the location and were able to walk to great places to eat, maze bar, and crazy house. The breakfast was made fresh and different both mornings, really good!

Sehr gutes Hostel mit sehr freundlicher Gastgeberin, man fühlt sich wie zuhause. Alles super sauber, außerdem mehr als genügend Duschen und Toiletten auf den Etagen. Außerdem sind die Betten sehr groß. Liegt sehr zentral und vieles ist fußläufig erreichbar, trotzdem sehr ruhig, da es in einer Nebengasse liegt. Würde immer wiederkommen!

I stayed for 2 nights, my overall stay was very pleasant, the owners were very accommodating and nice. They offer free breakfast. What I like was they let us checked in early, around 7.30am since the bed is already available. They have a big T&B. Comfy bed and duvet. It's not too far from the city center, you can have a 10-minute lovely walk. please note, this is not a social hostel. If you like peace and quiet, this hostel might be perfect for you.

I will miss everything that happens here, pretty breakfast is different every day, super big bed, super clean hygiene, the text is so fragile, can not show the feeling of being here, if you stay once, you will deeply experience it.

L’un des meilleurs hostels que j’ai pu faire au Vietnam. Pretty est une hôte très attentionnée qui a su nous mettre à l’aise dès notre arrivée. Les chambres sont très propres et spacieuses ainsi que les lieux communs. Je recommande vivement !

This hostel was really nice. The privacy curtains around the beds, desk area, and two en-suite bathrooms in the dorms are really appreciated. Elizabeth is so lovely. She’s always ready to help, from booking tours to your next hostel and transport. She’s easy to talk to and takes care of the place like a champ. Whenever I make it back to HCM city I will definitely stay here again. I cannot recommend it enough.

This was the most friendly, welcoming hostel I've stayed at during my travels! I arrived very early on a night bus and Pretty Mama let me check in at 7am and even invited me for breakfast despite not staying there the night before. I was lucky enough to be there when she hosted family dinner and it was truly some of the most fun I've had in Vietnam. Pretty mama and her family are so generous and really make you feel at home. You will not regret staying here or the great memories you will make!

The Pretty family are such kind and fun hosts! They really made my stay worthwhile and were very welcoming and helpful with any request. Met some amazing people here. Although there was no AC in the rooms, it was not hot at night and the beds were comfortable. Plenty of nice cafés/restaurants in the neighbourhood and walking distance to the night market and Maze Bar. The family dinner was an unforgettable experience. 10/10 would come back!

A hostel that feels much like a homestay - the family are very welcoming and accommadating, especially Mrs Pretty. We could check in early at 7am after a sleeper bus and were even provided breakfast on that first day. The Vietnamese breakfasts and such a pleasant change from Western-style ones. The bathrooms (albeit wet rooms as typical) are immaculate, and beds are large and comfy.My only cons are the privacy curtains are very makeshift/incomplete and the lack of social atmosphere (although
