No...no....no...

It wasaweful... we landed in Ho chi minh at 11:30. When grab dropped us, we were looking for hotel... it was actually, walking into a restaurant, and they greeted us in front of customers eating food... theres no reception greeting as hotels.com states in the detail. It was awkward as we were two mom and daughter alone and didnt want to deal with this in middle of night... please dont go if you are females. Ok for males. .

Really nice place with a very central location. Lovely staff and clean room, only recommendation, there is no elevator so if you struggle with stairs request a room on a lower floor

This is basically some rooms above a restaurant, there is no reception, no information on trips or similar. Ignore the pictures, the rooms are very basic and dated. Would not stay again, even for the cheap price.

Không phải là khách sạn, nên các bạn không nên tốn tiền vào những nơi như này. Tên khách sạn không như trang web, không lễ tân, dưới tầng là địa chỉ một tiệm ăn. Cách đang ký khách sạn không đúng.

立地がいいだけ

見た目はフォー屋さんで、奥の厨房から部屋に進む感じです。階段も部屋も薄汚いです。私は奥の部屋でしたが、道路側の部屋だと車の音がうるさいと思います。TVがつかない、と何度も指摘するも何も対応してくれなかった。朝食でフォーがいただけます。

Friendly staff, good hygiene but dodgy security

Having arrived late at night at 1am, the reception have no fuss with my booking and provided me with the keys. There are no lifts but it is fine with me. The rooms are standard with good cleanliness. However, the windows to the balcony cannot be closed properly so there is potential for burglars. The conditions of the windows also caused me to wake up at 7am in the morning due to the traffic honks. Otherwise is a good stay.

入住時飯店一樓及外觀有更新和圖片完全不同，沒有電梯然而樓梯非常危險，需要小心行走，還好工作人員有幫忙扛行李。 訂房時購買雙床，但到現場卻是雙人床,因為語言不通所以只好遷就，房間什麼都沒有，而且非常簡陋，怎間位於馬路邊非常吵雜，洗澡也沒有熱水邊洗邊發抖，非常糟糕的住宿經驗

強面の兄ちゃんが受付横のロビーにいたけど、逆に安心？公園が望めるバルコニー付きの部屋に宿泊。4階でしたが、スタッフが荷物も運んでくれました。シャワーはちゃんとお湯が出ます。また、1階はbún chảのお店になっており、美味しかったです。bùi viện通りまで徒歩5分と近いですが、公園を挟んでるので夜はうるさくもなく便利です。カウンターの30代くらいの女性も親切で、クリーニングも受付に頼めばとてもいい匂いで帰ってきました。この値段でこの立地は素晴らしいと思う。次来た時も必ず泊まります。

This is a very well located old building in District 1. The place is tired and a bit run down, but everything works. We were on the 5th floor and could hear the entire city through the closed windows, but I suspect that's most rooms with windows facing the action, especially in older buildings. Staff were friendly.
