Enquiry on Hanoi to Sapa to Yunnan

Hi everyone,

I like to seek help for my itinerary planning.

1.I intend to move from Hanoi to Sapa.I understand that I need to take an overnight train.Which accomodation is recommended for staying in Hanoi and near the original Sinh Cafe @ Hanoi?Im okay with a guesthouse or a 2 or 3 star hotel.

2.Are there other tour guides/agency aside from Sinh Cafe worth recommending if I%26#39;m looking for a tour to Sapa?How many days should I spend in Sapa?

3.From Sapa, I intend to make my way to Yunnan.How should I go about it?

Thank you very much for all help rendered! =)
