We took SP3 up to Lao Cai and SP4 back to Hanoi in the Premium 4-Berth cabin. Having the VIP Lounge at Lao Cai Station before the return train with herbal tea and snacks was a lifesaver.
Booked the Suite Twin Cabin ($113) plus the private 7-seat MPV transfer to Sapa ($32). Check-in at the Chapa Lounge on Le Duan street was effortless and the beds were super comfortable.
