The menu is slightly limited we thought there was enough choices. The breakfast was good, but a main menu item was the Phó and it seemed excessive fishy flavor. Fruit were plenty. Eggs and toast , rice and veggies good. The food and beverage staff were ok not too friendly. But we enjoyed the welcome Bev. The front desk people were excellent. Thanks for everything

My stay at Woodstock Jungle Camp was excellent. From the first moment, I felt welcomed by the friendly staff, always attentive to my every need. The place exudes tranquility, surrounded by mountains, ideal for resting or reconnecting. Access is very easy, even by motorbike. The cabin I stayed in exceeded my expectations: comfortable, clean, and with impeccable facilities. The restaurant's food was also a huge plus: everything I tried was delicious. Without a doubt, this is a place I would choose again. Highly recommended if you're looking for an authentic and relaxing experience in Cat Ba.

It’s very center of the island. The day trip we booked was good price (600k). Highly recommended!!! The room is very simple, but I think it’s fine for the price we paid. The breakfast has very limited options but we had yummy things everyday. The staff are very friendly :)

Probably the only place in Cat Ba town where you get a view of the sea. The room was large, clean and comfortable . Breakfast was good and had a fair amount of western style breakfast options. Wi-fi was fast and reliable.

    Best hostel I've stayed regarding the room. Big comfy bed in a private pod, lots of storage, private locker, power sockets, small light.. A/C and fan in the room. 1 bathroom for 6 beds in the female only dorm. Great location too, so don't forget to enjoy the rooftop. The staff at the bar is very attentive. The girl at the reception had a great level of English and was very helpful unlike some of her colleagues downstairs which could use some hospitality training..

    Great location, amazing breakfast and the staff went over and above to organise everything for us. They booked our boat tour of Ha Long Bay and organised bus to Ninh Binh. The food in the downstairs restaurant was great and reasonably priced and they had good music on every night. We had tried to book another well-known hostel in the area which was sold out, but I'm glad we ended up here as it had a much more traditional 'backpacker' type vibe than that place 😀

    The best hostel I have stayed in so far, the room and facilities were really good and clean. The staff are very friendly and helpful, helped us in booking tours, transport and what to do while we were here. The dog is also very adorable as well, in a great location in the heart of Cat Ba, we added on a night because it was so nice
