Hoi An Inns - Reviews and Rates

This story starts off with me explining why i am so bummed out. We got soo soo much rain the other week that everything was all flooded out and life was miserable. So that's why there is that video and the picture of the stree flooding. The street has 9inch. curbs! Man it was nuts!
Oh man, last Saturday was amazing!! We all have a friend nam...

We took the night/sleeper bus down the coast, skipping Hue because we'd heard there wasn't much happening there, and arrived in the blaring heat after a reasonably comfortable night's sleep.
We had booked a hotel room online in advance (for our first night, where I received a small electric shock turning on a light), but soon found touts lini...

Success - we have the kilt. Pretty good too but it looks too big for you - but does measure that 110 cm you wanted. Might have to change and adjust the small fastening belts - they look a bit big I think. But for US$31 it's pretty dam good.
This is in haste as it's getting late and we have to be up at 5AM for an early departure. Got a message...

So you know when you go shopping and you love everything and dont quite know where to start? Well imagine being in a town packed full of tailors shop who all want to make you any item of clothing you want for any price you want to name. I swear, I nearly had a breakdown! Where do you start when you can have anything in the world? So I went for t...

Blogs - weeks 8-10 - 28 April - 18 May 2009 Since last we were in touch, we have celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary and Mark has had his 58th birthday. Both were celebrated in style. Our anniversary coincided with the visit of Mick and Bev Leyden, good friends and former tennis teammates from Melbourne, whose term of working in Singapore is...

A fairly easy start to the day, with a relaxed breakfast before hiring a motorbike for the day. The journey to the ancient Cham ruins of My Son was pretty relaxed, but the temperature was already rising a long way up the thermometer! One little hiccup was encountered as what we thought was a fairly full tank of petrol turned out not to be nearly...

Segon dia a Hoi An!!!!! Tota una experiencia!!!! Aquest mati quan esmorzavem, hem conegut a dos nois de BCN que ens han recomanat visitar les visites que voliem fer amb moto i.... vinga a llogar una moto per 6 dolars al dia! Tu pagues i ell et dona les claus de la moto! Sense papers, sense asseguranca, sense ensenyar carnet.... Aixo es una casa ...

Il faut être honnête: ce qui nous amène a Hoi An, ce n'est ni le charme historique de sa vieille ville restaurée, ni la proximité de la mer, mais plutôt ses 500 boutiques de tailleurs qui se font compétition pour le prix et la rapidité a laquelle ils exécutent leur travail. A Hoi An, on peut se faire tailler un costume en 24 heures pour un prix ...

Another day, Another Entry! Vietnam is nowhere near as BEAUTIFUL as Cambodia is.. in fact i really miss that country! there's way too much traffic everywhere in Vietnam! I realised that i haven't really been keeping everyone up to date for a while so this is gonna be a quick catch up of all the things i haven't written about!! the last few days ...

This morning we slept in, and had breakfast around the corner at the new(er) Thanh Binh III. Great bread of course, cool coffee, and wierd banana shake. Internet access in the lobby was excruciatingly slow, so we bagged it. Looks like we can use the pool, which our Thanh Binh II lacks (wherever do they come up with these great names?) In Hanoi a...
