Sweet Memories of a Month's Stay
I stayed at this accommodation for a month and found it very comfortable. Each morning, I enjoyed fried rice, eggs, and rice noodles without ever feeling tired of them. Perhaps it's because I have a fondness for fried rice. The egg fried rice here is made with Annam rice and lightly seasoned. The pool has a suitable depth, ranging from 1.4 meters to 1.6 meters. My wife, who is 160cm tall, appreciated that she could comfortably stay in the shallower areas. Currently, the overpass in front of the accommodation is undergoing construction, making road maintenance a bit messy but not overly noisy. Interestingly, the sound of a neighboring karaoke machine is more striking. The clucking of gaboon lizards against the walls quickly became familiar. The water pressure in the shower is somewhat weak. The condition of the bicycles varies, so careful inspection is necessary before choosing one. There are three buildings in total; the owner's family resides in one and can often be seen enjoying breakfast from the menu. Security is overseen by two friendly men in black octagonal hats, though their English is limited to 'good morning.' There are three receptionists fluent in English. Occasionally, their unique Vietnamese pronunciation poses a challenge, but clear and patient communication resolves any issues. Laundry service costs 40,000 dong or 2,000 won per kilogram, with a scale at reception to weigh items. Payment can be consolidated upon check-out. Laundry is returned neatly folded in clean plastic, fragrant with fabric softener, as early as the same afternoon. Upon leaving the accommodation, there are three intersections resembling four streets, with a small market diagonally across. This market typically opens in the afternoon, featuring fruit carts, particularly mangoes sold at 30,000 dong per kilogram; those from the elderly lady on the left are especially recommended. The young lady on the right speaks assertively and confidently, while the one on the left appears more reserved. We purchased mangoes three or four times, once paying 40,000 dong due to a playful gesture by a neighboring woman who claimed we owed her 40,000 dong. When asked why, a smile and inquiry in Korean swiftly reduced the price to 30,000 dong. I suspect it was a precautionary call. Adjacent to the fruit shop is a banh mi restaurant; the lady there has a determined demeanor, yet the banh mi is delicious. Across the street, the bachelor's banh mi shop boasts handsome men but lacks sufficient meat in their sandwiches. However, their castella cake is soft and delightful, reminiscent of the local bread with an egg flavor from my childhood. Banh mi costs 10,000 dong or 500 won, significantly cheaper than downtown prices, including castella bread. Traveling downtown, a quick taxi can be arranged by reception, typically a green taxi with efficient service. Fond memories of each friendly staff member make me smile. Interestingly, I never saw the young woman in the kitchen smile during my month-long stay; perhaps it's just her demeanor. Initially, I attributed it to my frequent consumption of eggs. Missing Ahn and everyone else dearly. Wishing everyone a wonderful life until we meet again (^._.^)ノ
