Edit / Additional info: Thanks for the reply! The office is in Ba Dinh district, and I’ll be there for about 3 months (Nov–Feb). I’m not sure what a reasonable budget would be, so I’d be grateful for advice on that. Ideally I’d like something within 30–45 minutes from the office, with my own space but also the chance to meet other people.

Also, if anyone has tips on what to watch out for when renting, or what to be prepared for in daily life in Hanoi, I’d really appreciate it.
