Arriving alone in Vietnam was a little daunting but this hostel was really friendly and everyone i met was kind and polite. The reception team are very helpful and the room was as good as any hotel I have stayed in, if not, better. I even had a little balcony although I did not get to use it as I was so busy most if the time. The location is in the heart if the city but there was no noise that I could hear. Perfect.

First, the female owner was very helpful with a city map and arranging a tour. The room was nice and clean. However, I had to leave early due to security concerns. My first morning, someone tried to open the door and then quietly left. Strange but okay. The second night, someone actually tried to break in. It was terrifying and thank god the lock held after ten minutes of trying to force it open, but when I told the man on duty he didn’t care at all. Just said “well that happens”. I left A...

The girl in the reception was very helpful and kind. The guy had a bit rude attidude. The room was okayish, location good. You could get a better room with the same amount of money in a different place.

James and An were the best receptionnists, the hostel was very clean and neat, with a great location right in the heart of district 1! I Would highly recommend to follow all the tips and recommendations that they give you, as they were the best spots in town. We were very happy about our stay.

nice rooms and comfy beds with curtains. Only one bathroom which was a bit of a pain. Staff on reception were super helpful and friendly. Great location, not a social hostel

Ms Anna, the lady who owns the place, was extremely kind and takes very good care of her place here. She helped me so much and was so nice to talk to every time I passed by. I would 1000000% recommend this place for how close it was to everything, how kind she was, how clean it was every day and for affordability. Thank you Ms Anna!!!!

Staff were great and really helpful. Our room was spacious but wasn’t the cleanest. Quite a few stains on the bed sheets and the floor made our white socks turn black. Our mattress was also really hard. There was no common area so the hostel wasn’t social if that’s what you are looking for. The only way we met people was on the Cu Chi tunnels tour which we booked directly with the hostel. Great location - overall hostel was fine for our short stay.

Mostly clean, nice staff, central location. Nothing social going on, just a place to sleep.
