    “You can walk to Vientiane.”

    This hostel is within walking distance to Bui Vien. I am not good at English, but the front desk staff kindly explained everything using a translation app. I was able to borrow towels and had a very comfortable stay. Also, I appreciated the fact that there were no events where guests gathered to do something, as I am not good at those kinds of things. This time it was just a one-night stay for transit, but I will definitely visit again the next time I come to Ho Chi Minh City.

    “A Great Place for Solo Travelers”

    Although there are no elevators, this place amazed me with its cleanliness, the enthusiasm of the staff, and its amenities. They provide everything you need to practically live there for weeks. The best part is their balcony; it is beautiful and lovely, perfect for morning coffee and relaxing or smoking. There is a café and bistro downstairs with reasonable prices, and their food is delicious. I highly recommend starting your day with breakfast from there. P.S.: Just a heads up, if you book this hostel, remember to prepare 200k VND in cash for a deposit for the room key and towel. Of course, they will return the money when you check out.

    “Spacious and clean.”

    The hostel is quite spacious and clean. It's fairly close to the center, making it very convenient to access places like the Independence Palace, the Notre-Dame Cathedral, etc. There are many good restaurants around and a lot of convenience stores if you want to find food at night.

    “pretty good”

    Near the hostel, there is a park, bus stop, and many places within walking distance. The staff support is very good. However, the bed is a bit dusty and the towels have an unpleasant smell. The cafe downstairs has very delicious caramel, so I recommend everyone try the food downstairs.

    “Highly recommended!”

    The beds are separated by curtains and there are lockable lockers available. It seems that the toilets and baths are cleaned every day, so overall it was a very clean hostel! The first floor has a restaurant, so after taking a bath, you can enjoy a beer, which is great!! The location is good, there is a hairdryer, and it supports Type A plugs. I will stay here again when I go to Vietnam. Bath towels are exchanged daily, but they smell a bit damp, so if you're sensitive to that, it's better to bring your own.
