Nice place, comfortable! Full of young people but quiet place!
The vibe of the place is amazingly good. Lot of young students but really studying so it was great for me. The cafeteria and the free minibar made a huge difference.
A bit too crowses and the personal did not speak good english. The check in was a little too long cause the room was not available.

Cosy rooms for a nice comfortable stay. People with knee problems might find it difficult to get up and down from the bed, since the bed is at a very low level. A wide range of free food, both inside the room and on the terrace, is unique of its kind.

Loved it
Was a perfect place for a us as a family of 3 with a 2.5yo - she could tire herself a bit on a hammock in the room then on the swings during the breakfast and then on the playground in the park which is 5min walk from the hotel. Free snacks and drinks are unbeatable too

A generous friendly hotel.
I liked the generousity of the hotel and that the minibar was free. I liked the roof terrace for breakfast. Breakfast was good - and good to be varied.
I was sad that I couldn’t easily see the window from most of my room.

Exceptional stay, great location and unlimited complimentary drinks & snacks
Excellent stay ! We are a family of 5 , this place is miraculously close to every landmark one would like to cover in HCM City. We walked down to all the places. The rooms are very cozy yet spacious. Loved the fact that the room pantry was full all the time and totally free & included in the room charges. Th highlights are the Rooftop pantry which is open 24/7 with nice sitting area and Choice or beers, snacks , coffee tea all of it was free and unlimited. The staff was very courteous. Also, it has the 24/7 coffee Shop at ground floor, the vibe of the place is exceptional and the bakery and coffee choices were amazing !
Breakfast option are very limited and apart from the staff at the lobby rest of the staff may not speak English.

This charming little establishment was a mix of youthful hostel energy and cool boutique hotel vibes. The staff were friendly and very helpful! The location was great- in the middle of things but still quiet and peaceful. I loved everything about it!

Good experiance
The location, the cleanliness, the staffs and unlimited use of the minibar and pantry!! Also 24/7 cafe at the lobby. The location is in the middle of the touristic area where you can explore everything at walking distance. The hammocks inside the room is so nice that kids enjoy it. The roof top dining area is amazing to sit and chill out together with family or friends. The breakfast is set menu but different options to choose from and all are good.

Great stay in HCMC!
Clean rooms, excellent location, unlimited snacks/mini bar, washer dryer, great set meal breakfasts. There is also a 24hr cafe and a study lounge This place was perfect for us.
Very very minor but a hook behind the bathroom door for clothes and towels would be super helpful.

Perfect Location and Free Flow Snacks
The room and location was perfect. Booked a room for 3 and it felt very spacious. They provide snacks and beverages in the lounge.
Breakfast choice. Anyway, there are two Banh Mi stores situated just outside of the hotel which was perfect!

Everything! The bed was comfortable, facilities perfect, there was washing machines and tumble driers which were complimentary and self service, there is a minibar with food and drinks in the room again complimentary and on the roof terrace there were drinks, snacks and pastries which were also complimentary! We checked out and the staff kindly let us leave our bags at the hotel and then when we came back we had a couple of hours till our taxi came for the airport so they allowed us to stay on the terrace till we needed to leave! I can't rate this hotel enough, I would definitely definitely recommend!
Absolutely nothing, perfect location to walk to all sites, shops, restaurants and anything you could possibly want is on the doorstep, staff friendly and so accommodating, just do it, just book! We wish we could have stayed longer! Thankyou

Very trendy and cool hotel
Very comfortable and ‘cool’ property. Lots of local creative types working quietly in the cafe downstairs. Roof top bar with free beer and snacks was very nice touch - open 24/7 and able to sit in the hammocks on the rooftop until the early morning - perfect. Room was very comfortable. Shower was brilliant - waterfall shower with very strong pressure
Nothing to call out
