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.

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

Comfortable, cozy place to stay within walking distance to major attractions!

Great location. Walking distance to many of the “must see” in HCMC sites. Reception was very kind and helpful. Laundry facility was the perk I didn’t know I’d love! Having snacks and drinks available when traveling with a teen was a plus!

I chose this property as it was touted as clean which is quite important to me. Overall, it was very clean. However, the toilet in our room had noticeable grime on the backside of the toilet seat and along the base. This is an easy scrub to make it even cleaner!

Very good

Well designed refurbished rooms. Nice breakfast selection of multiple options that change each day, cooked individually. Decent location. Free drinks and snacks in room and on roof terrace. Bottom two floors are cafe and study space, so always lots of people around.

Refurb is fairly superficial. Electrics, etc, seem quite old. Street hotel is on is only slightly busy for HCMC, but walking to the centre means crossing a pretty crazy roundabout.

clean and modern accommodation

Everything! From the breeze during check in and free mini bar that consist of drinks, beer and limitless chips. Rooftop breakfast with a change in daily selection and pleasant atmosphere and cleanliness. It was also a short walk to a famous banh mi food outlet.

We stayed in the extra large nest, 1 queen and 1 super single bed. The spring in the super single mattress is no longer supportive. The hotel should look into replacing it so that guest can have a good night's rest.

A central location with good amenities and friendly staff

We loved the room, it was comfy quiet and in a good location for walking and doing tours. The breakfast choices changed daily and were tasty. We also really enjoyed the free snacks and beer which we enjoyed on the roof top hammocks!

It would be great if it had a pool for those hot nights but otherwise it was great!

Would definitely stay here again

Really liked the style of the rooms and the concept of free minibar and drinks on the rooftop. Also thought the breakfast was great (I went for the more local option with Pho, spring roles etc). They were also flexibility with a later check out which allowed me to do one more tour and freshen up after

Nothing really, would book again

Very good

I loved that they offer a free snack bar on the rooftop, which is accessible any time of the day: They offer a wide range of options: pastries, yogurt, snacks, soft drinks, and beer. The staff is super kind and welcoming. The location is excellent too. There is also a very popular Banh Mi joint across the street, about 5 minute's walk from the hotel, which is a must-try.

The hotel offers three different breakfast options: toast, beef soup noodles, and mac and cheese. The food in general was disappointing. I would say that the only impressive option was the soup noodles.

excellent place and I would rate it 10/10.

omg. what all should I mention here. endless list. I have traveled all over the world but never ever have I come across such a hotel. firstly I would love to thank the owner of this property for being so generous enough to provide unlimited resources. breakfast time is till 12 noon. there’s a canteen on their top floor where unlimited beer, water , cold drinks , tea coffee, milk, curd, sweets, snacks, wafers, cup noodles etc are kept for customers and it’s FREE. this gesture is enough for customer satisfaction. the mini bar in the room is unlimited. there’s a laundry and dryer as well as iron which is free again. 24/7 coffee shop in their premises. just 500 meters to walking street and 700 meters to Ben Thanh market. their staff is well spoken courteous English speaking. and so so many restaurants and Banh mi diners in and around the hotel. spacious rooms and bathroom. simply loved everything about this property. would be coming back again here and would definitely recommending this place to my friends.

there’s nothing I would mention.
