My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The location is excellent, right next to Benh Thanh Market, making it convenient for exploring the city, but the room had some drawbacks with noise from the street. The service was friendly but inconsistent. The dining options were limited, and the prepared food was not impressive. Overall, a decent stay with some ups and downs.
Rooms

The room I stayed in was not facing the noisier street near the market, just as advertised. However, the single glazed window in the bathroom allowed a lot of street noise inside, and I couldn't even shut the bathroom door properly. The room felt smaller than expected.

The staff were friendly and generally helpful, but the service quality was inconsistent. Some interactions were fantastic, while others were quite tepid. The average stay was okay overall.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room I stayed in was not ideal, as it had a single glazed window in the bathroom which let in a lot of street noise and the bathroom door couldn't be shut properly. However, the front desk service was efficient, and the room size of 28 sq lent itself perfectly for my quick trip to the city for an impromptu photoshoot.

The hotel is in a convenient location near the market and offers clean rooms, but noise can be an issue. The service was helpful overall, but some staff seemed preoccupied with their phones. Dining options were acceptable, and the presence of flies was bothersome. The hotel has good facilities, although limited dining choices were a downside.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The location was perfect for exploring the city and shopping, but the room left much to be desired with its gaudy decor and dim lighting. The service was hit or miss, with some staff being fantastic while others seemed indifferent. The dining options were decent, but replenishing of food was lacking. Overall, a place with potential but with room for improvement.
