I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The room, though lacking a window, had a great smell of smoke from the previous guest. Luckily, I paid a little extra for a spacious room on the first floor with a window overlooking the bustling backpacker street. The location was vibrant, right in the heart of the backpackers quarter, with an array of bars, restaurants, and shops nearby. However, the busy street meant it was a bit noisy at times.

I found the hotel to be conveniently situated in the heart of the bustling city, but unfortunately, my room on the first floor lacked a window, and the noise level was discomforting at times. The hotel staff, especially Kathy and her team, were incredibly friendly and accommodating, which added to the pleasant experience. However, there were some issues with the tour agency's handling, leading to a bit of inconvenience that the hotel couldn't entirely resolve. The location was ideal for those seeking a vibrant nightlife scene but could get a bit overwhelming with the constant noise.

I found the hotel to be a mixed bag with some positives and negatives. The rooms had a slight smoky smell upon entering, and the bed was on the small side, but they were adequately equipped with essential amenities. The service from the staff was top-notch, with some of the friendliest people I've encountered while traveling. The location on the bustling backpacker street in HCMC was both a blessing and a curse, offering easy access to bars and restaurants but also resulting in significant noise. The dining options were somewhat underwhelming, with limited choices but decent quality. The facilities provided were satisfactory overall.
