Considering the Fortuna Hotel in Hanoi?

Old Quarters by imstress
If you dont mind being awaken early in the morning by honking of motorbikes and national athems or very loud sound or music over the public loud speakers on the street, this is the place to stay in.
We stayed at Phan Thai (Camellia 4) in the middle of Old Quarters.
Given a choice again, we will choose to stay south of the lake where the French Quarters and shopping centres are.
