Little Town has kept things old-fashioned. Dark, ornate furniture, some massive rooms, white cotton bedding, high ceilings and spacious bathrooms seem from another era. English-speaking staff also display classic good service, but with youthful enthusiasm, and breakfast is excellent. Front rooms have balconies; quieter rear rooms look to nearby Dong Xuan Market. There's a huge family room on the top floor.
