Guest Reviews
- Duy (3/5): I know it is cheap and it’s at a great location, but we still need standards. This was not it. - Literally nothing. To get to this place, you must walk by a street full of escorts. The room smells like cigarettes, the bathroom was greasy and not clean. The pillow case was stained.
- Lily (5/5): Passable -
- Joe (1/5): Bad - Nothing The fact that the hotel was in prostitute alley, a fact that is missed from the description when booking. We only stayed there for 1 night as my wife, daughter, and I did not feel safe. We did ask for a refund, but this was declined.
- Micheal (6/5): Adequate - The room was good and the hosts were professional. Good no thrills stay. The location wasn't to my liking, but that was my fault for not doing the research.
- Joseph (5/5): Passable but wouldn’t return. - Didn’t realise that it was directly in the red light District with women of the night right outside our door and shouting at men throughout the night. Lot of ants in the rooms and shower head didn’t stay on the wall. Passable for a cheap night but not the best condition.
- Chris (2/5): - They do not have a reception. You’ll need to contact the landlord so you’ll data. It’s tuck in a prostitution’s hub walkway deep in the alley. Very difficult to find if you have lots of luggage and don’t know where you’re going. I don’t recommend this area. Loud noise, Construction daily.
- Xavier (8/5): Very good - Value for money A bit noisy but can't blame host because is the location
- David (8/5): Very good -
- Qing (1/5): Hot room AIRCON not working manager refuses to cancel and refund - nothing AIRCON not working and manager refused to cancel and refund. Vietnam is hot country foreigners wont be able to sleep without proper working aircon. Had to check out within few hours of checking it. Avoid this place!
- Alexandra (7/5): Good value for the property - The room was spacious, we had a small kitchen and a balcony, a sofa and a bed.
The bed was also comfortable. The room was clean and it was a good value for the money. Although the room was clean the bathroom felt like it required more cleaning. There were tiny ants in the bathroom and the shower head kept falling off. There were also no slippers for the house or the bathroom (which would usually get all wet from the shower).
- Shrooti (3/5): Poor -
- Anna (8/5): Very good - Great air conditioning and it’s at an amazing price and location for the quality of the apartment.
Attentive owner and comfortable bed. There’s no lift to the room so you have to carry your luggage up 2 flights of hot and stuffy stairs, but this can’t be helped.
I also would prefer a deadlock on the door in addition to the regular lock.
- Luke (6/5): Needs a fair amount of work to be done! - It was a nice room with a comfy bed and comfy pillows that about it to be fair! There was ants and mosquitoes everywhere, there was a constant drilling sound outside that kept you up all night
- Lebyl (6/5): In Tokyo town Saigon. - The bed was good. Nice person that worked there. Frezzer and a big refrigerator Easy and fast Check out. No elevator, my room was at 4th floor. 🥴 No view, plus bars on the window, the tv did not work. Did not see any fire exit.
- Tuan (7/5): Good -
- Matthew (9/5): Superb -
- Lucy (10/5): A great place to stay! The bed was super comfy and the check in and out was super easy, the lady was super friendly and - The bed was super comfy! It had everything you needed.
- Shaneen (3/5): Poor - Bed was comfortable and we had streaming services on the TV. The apartment is located in the middle of a busy area with clubs, bars, massage parlours and restaurants that are open until 6am. The noise was horrific and we had no sleep for the 2 nights we were there. The entrance to the apartment block is open constantly and you can hear people walk outside your room throughout the night. The bathroom needs improving- the shower head didn’t have a holder on the wall and the bath wasn’t great. Photos didn’t match our expectations of the apartment. Kitchen area didn’t have much.
- Nordiana (10/5): Exceptional - Rooms here are very spacious and comfortable.
- Andrew (4/5): Disappointing - Host was friendly and premises were clean Really dodgy neighbourhood, lots of prostitution and fake massage, very dirty and noisy streets, loud noises yelling and drinking nearby
- Morisaki (10/5): Exceptional - easy to get around and explore
- Abu (8/5): Very good -
- Chia (9/5): Superb - Very clean, spacious and walkable to shops. Noise at night, in the middle of red light district.
- Anton (8/5): Very good -
- Jonathan (3/5): Cheap and perfect, only if you intend on staying out late. - Comfortable bed, really good price The surrounding bars are open until very early in the morning and will play thumping bass music. And you will hear the bar girls screaming also. There is peeling wallpaper, ants, etc.
- Paul (8/5): Good value for the money but be prepared it is in the middle of a party zone - Lots of food and drink options nearby Could be a little noisy at night
- Camille (9/5): Superb - The apartment is very comfortable for 2 people, spacious and well cared for! The host was very responsive to us and even kept our luggage until 9pm on the day of our check out. We thought the service was as good as can be, and the quality of the room completely matched our expectations! Some details could be improved, such as the shower that splashes out of the tub and an additional lock on the door would be nice and easy to install. It is true that the location is close to bars and clubs and there is a decent amount of noise before 3 am. We were aware prior to arrival so it did not impact our stay that much but still must note if you plan on staying here.
- Efthymia (9/5): Great location and apartment size on a low price! - Very central location in a cute pedestrian square which apparently is a Japanese corner, very spacious apartment and swift and proactive communication with the apartment’s admins The neighbourhood is very noisy at nights as it’s full of bars and the windows are paper thin meaning you could hear everything until 2-3am.
- David (6/5): Once inside the apartment it was nice, location with all the sleazy bars not good - Clean Location
- Benjamin (10/5): Exceptional - The decor of the hotel was modern and stylish. It gave a very fresh and appealing look to the entire place. I loved the aesthetic
- Jeon (10/5): Exceptional - Location is unbeatable
- Patricia (8/5): Very good -
- Benedikt (6/5): Not the best, but its money worth - The central location of the Apartment. The location is nice, but you have to keep in mind that's it's a kind of red-light district. When you go to / leave your apartment you will always be annoyed by offers from the Bar-Girls around. You can hear the offers to other tourist for massages etc from the room, but at 10pm it stops :)
- Mr (8/5): Japanese Town - large rooms, rooms were quiet and had smart TV
- Mr (8/5): Good value in Japanese area with lots of nightlife but quiet, nice staff - quiet and has a bath no frying pan bed was a bit hard
- My (9/5): Superb -
- Lee (8/5): Good location - Location is right in the middle of Japan street. Lots of food and Bar. Noise from the clubs and bars.
- Mr (8/5): nice room, has smart TV with netflix and bathtub - nice room with a window, lots of places to eat nearby and banks, spas ect. private entrance no frying pan, one bar made noise until 6am, no balcony
window has gap, could put some tape on it. some cockroaches under bed, no laundry
- Ravikumar (7/5): Good stay - Clean and good property in the heart of Japan town only good for party guys. No safe it was difficult to leave money in the room, No lift is the issue and no room service
- Adam (8/5): Very good -
- Oanh (6/5): Pleasant -
- Tomi (8/5): Very good - Nice apartment that has everything you need. Located on a nightlife street, make noise at night.
- Stasz (9/5): I liked my two nights at the hotel which is close to the city’s main sights. - It’s very spacious and clean. Staff was very nice and easy to communicate with. Very good value for money. The shower could be better.
- Villahermosa (9/5): Superb - The room is clean. Staff is exceptionally helpful and accommodating. The location is not the best. Lots of aggressive girls around the street as you walk in and through the alleys. A bit loud at night.
- Ri (8/5): Very good -
- Brown (10/5): Exceptional - Staying at Kansas Hotel & Apartment Notre Dame was a top-notch experience. Highly recommended!

- Sy (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent value for the money. A luxurious experience at an affordable price.
- Amy (10/5): Exceptional - The staff made our stay enjoyable. Very attentive and responsive.
- Khanh (10/5): Exceptional - The hotel's central location is ideal. Close to many historical attractions.
- Donovan (8/5): Very good -
- Sophie (10/5): Exceptional - I would highly recommend the Kansas Hotel & Apartment - Notre Dame to anyone visiting this city. Between the exceptional service and comfortable rooms, it makes for a great stay.
- Henrich (10/5): Exceptional - The comfort of the rooms and the overall ease and relaxation the hotel provides is unmatched. I looked forward to coming back to my room after a long day in the city.
- Carl (10/5): Exceptional - Professional staff. The room is nice, clean, modern and fully equipped. Good.
- Suzanne (1/5): Bad - I didn't like anything about this hotel. The hotel is in district 1. Right in the middle of the gogo girl bars and girl massage parlours. I didn't like anything about this hotel. The hotel is in district 1 of le than ton street. The hotel was . Right in the middle of the gogo girl bars and girl massage parlours. This area is know as the hooker area i foubd out later. If your in your 20s and with a group of boys this is the place for you. If your older and want a quiet area. there are better places to stay. My room was above a gogo girl bar, and all I could hear were the girls shouting out for men to go into their club. In fact I didn't stay in the hotel. I actually moved hotels to a quieter street and cleaner hotel. The room was basic and did not feel clean.
- Kei (10/5): Great - The rooms were spacious, clean, and comfortable for our four-day stay.
The location is also very convenient for sightseeing. We didn't mind, but being in the heart of the downtown area, we could hear the commotion until about 0 a.m.
If you are sensitive to sound, you may want to get some earplugs.
- Leah (4/5): Disappointing - A bed is a bed but the location is awful, doesn’t locate on a map and is very hard to get taxi to or get food delivered. There is never anyone at the front desk, we had to leave the key to check out as we had a ferry booked. Got there lastnight after a 15hr bus journey and there was no one at the desk for 20 mins. They don’t have any change but request you pay in cash?
- Nathan (9/5): Comfortable - This is a very comfortable apartment in the heart of the city. It has a large
comfortable bed, large wardobe with an inbuilt writing desk, large fridge and freeer, a small sofa and tea table, and TV. The balcony connects to the kitchen and together with the main bed room provides a good spacious feel. The bath is large with running hot water and a shower head.
The one member of staff is a young 'super woman', who does everything. She helps carry heavy luggae up the stairs to the designated floor, cleans, collects payment etc... She speaks very good English and responsd quickly to text messaging, and helps in any way she can. I fell ill for two days and she helped me buy medicine, which was really sweet of her.
There are many resteraunts in the area as well a grocery stores. This apartment is good for long or short term stays.
The area is also very close to the main tourist sites.
Will stay here again! The front door. The step to enter the building is a bit to high and should be divided into two steps.
- Verto (10/5): Exceptional - We had such a nice experience here thanks to Kansas Hotel & Apartment - Notre Dame. Helpful and friendly staff. Beautiful room.
- Morris (10/5): Exceptional - Overall great location and very nice staff.
- Jennings (10/5): Exceptional - Nice room with full amenities. Convenient location for commuting. Helpful staff
- Mai (8/5): Very good - Nice room and very helpful staff It's next to bars so you can hear loudly sound during nights
- Mihail (8/5): Very good - Not bad room even with kitchen (but have no enough dishes to really use it). Just in front there are prostitute girls that are super aggressive and loud until morning. The windows can't be closed tightly, so it's loud at night, and hot air come inside.
- Lokesh (8/5): Very good -
- Marlen (3/5): I will not come back to this place and can not recommend it - the bed was comfortable and the room (except) the bathroom was clean I would not recommend this place!! It’s in the middle of the red light district and you hear + feel the music and bass form the club downstairs and the women on the streets and men screaming the whole night!! The main door is never closed so you got like wasted people in the entrance and the door of our room didn’t even was covered the light form the stairs outside, seems like to be open very easily.
As two women we felt not safe and could NOT sleep at all
also it was even with Aircon way too hot to sleep!
- Toak (10/5): Exceptional - Warm and cozy room, hot shower, good hospitality.
- Yi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Murray (10/5): Exceptional - Great location and a very clean and spacious room with window view, fridge, flatscreen tv with cable channels, bathroom, Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Would book again for sure.
- Vius (10/5): Exceptional - The room is tidy. I love the room's view very much. The staffs are friendly and supportive. The decoration is modern and clean.
- Matthew (3/5): Poor - Lot of fake reviews hide the fact it’s surrounded by nightclubs so very noisy all night. Wouldn’t be that bad if that’s what you want from HCM.
- Yao (1/5): Bad - The location, is quite conveniently located, easily walk to everywhere The cleanliness was not what I expected from the reviews and ratings.
So much noises at night, but not the biggest concern for me, I was able to sleep under this condition
- Augustus (1/5): DISGUSTING - The only part I liked was leaving this horrible little hole Where to start... Most importantly this is above an extremely loud club. Music will play until at least 4 AM sometimes longer. Girls are screaming outside. Basically sleep is impossible so can only presume this place has fake reviews or deaf guests.
The room was dirty, no curtain on one of the prison windows so street light just comes in all night. That would keep you up if the whores from downstairs weren't already doing so. The bathroom was filthy, shower head falling off the wall, no curtain so water sprays all over the room. No foot towel for the bathroom so water went everywhere in the flat. Previous guests hair on the bathroom floor... Just gross
Would probably get a better sleep on the street
- Nguyen (8/5): Very good -
- Allan (5/5): Passable -
- Taya (8/5): Very good -
- Ianzhina (3/5): Disappointing Experience at Hotel: Facilities and Location - I have nothing positive to say about this hotel. The location was extremely challenging to find, even on Google maps, as their contact details on the booking profile contained an outdated, incorrect number, making it impossible to confirm the location. Nearly all the property amenities listed were inaccurate:
1. Absence of a 24-hour front desk, in fact, there was no front desk at all
2. Payment by card was unavailable, only cash was accepted
3. There was no elevator
4. The hot water boiler system in my room was non-functional
5. Another guest's room had a malfunctioning air conditioning unit
6. The environment was excessively noisy, to the extent that my bed vibrated due to loud music every night
7. The claim of room service was also false, as it was non-existent
- Sarah (6/5): Not as expected + Japan Town watch out! - It was nice and roomy enough and pretty private. The bed was comfortable and the air conditioner worked well. Was fairly clean too. We booked it because it was advertised as two beds but turns out it's only one now!
Location wise - note it's in Japan town, so you're a little further from Vietnamese eateries as a tourist, but also it's good to note that Japan town is like a mini red-light district with lots of women who will harass you if you are a male and you walk past. It was also quite loud at night because there's many clubs and brothyls nearby - we had to use ear plugs.
The kitchen was there but also lacking a lot of the main crockery, e.g. mugs and cups.
- Jason (8/5): Very good -
- Massimo (7/5): Good - Big room and modern, staff very kind no soundproofing on the windows and being in the street of the clubs you hear music and screams all night... no lift and if you have the room of 2nd floor can be a problem with big baggage.
- Francis (10/5): Exceptional - My family and I had a great time here. Beautiful hotel, attentive staff, friendly other guests. Definitely come back another time.
- Tina (10/5): Exceptional - Good room. Enough space. Overall great value.
- Percival (10/5): Exceptional - The place is wonderful, room perfect, location great, very clean, very spacious.
- Harvey (10/5): Exceptional -
- Roger (10/5): Exceptional - A nice place that help us have a happy holiday.
- Derrick (10/5): Exceptional - Service quality was good. Quiet and nice room. Fully equipped supplies
- Dean (9/5): Superb -
- Trung (10/5): Everything was perfect - The owner was really gentle and helpful. Everything was good apart from the position but it was still in D1 so still good
I was in the room 402 in the last floor so luckily we didn't hear the loud music
- K (1/5): Bad - This location claims to offer payment by card and requires a card to reserve the room. My father stayed here as I had a medical emergency and had to catch up to him a few days later. There was no reception here. My father called multiple times with no answer for hours. At 2am a woman told him to take the hidden key. The area is surrounded by bars and whore houses. When the person came to collect money, they rejected the offer of a credit card and called and texted my partner and I multiple times threatening to go to the police if we didn’t bank transfer him, and that my 60year old father was responsible for going out to find an exchange and giving him cash, regardless of what it says on booking. All of this while I was rearranging flights and such to meet my doctor for the medical emergency. I would never recommend this place.
- Youri (3/5): Not my place - Personal was nice, facilitated early check in 1. Hygiene - blankets were gross, room had quite some dam spots
2. Area of the hotel is very loud and isolation quite bad. Lucky we brought our noise cancelling headphones to get rid of the noise of the “message saloons “ in the neighbourhood.
- Shihjen (3/5): Poor - No idea Cancel us on the check in day
- Mafeni (9/5): Good - Well cleaned, good staff, big spacious room The street girls make a lot of noise with chanting etc. till 12 midnight, so if traveling for work it can be a bit uncomfortable to work in the hotel
- Aline (10/5): Exceptional - The reception and service here is great. Room is fully equipped, clean and well decorated.
- Ju (9/5): Superb - Nice appartement fully furnished. It was clean. Really good bed ! The appartement is in japanese district in a small street so there is animation at night. It was little noisy if you have light sleep.
- Laurent (1/5): Dangerous drinking water - There was no water bottle in the room but only one fountain in the stairway.
I’ve drink one glass of that water. The taste was not good and I got immediately worried.
5 hours later, in the middle of the night I was really sick. I went to hospital in the morning and I got bad stomach bacteria from that water.
The hospital cost was 430$ and I got better after 3 days.
Bad experience and I’m 100% sure that the only contamination can be from that water. I’m always careful with the food and water.
- Trung (9/5): Superb -
- Manal (1/5): Bad - Don't go to this hotel. First I needed to wait 1 hour until they came with the key. Then the window that you see in the picture is too tiny. And to my surprise, the key was not closing the door so I had to call them back to come and they told me that the key is not working... they rented the room knowing that I will not be able to use it. Obviously I asked for a refund and left.
- Megan (6/5): Two nights in HCM - The location was central and the price was fair. The rooms we booked were very clean and comfortable. Despite the central location, this apartment is in the middle of a Japanese bar / massage section in HCM. It is incredibly noisy until at least 2:30am each night. You can hear music and ‘cat calls’ to passing men as the massage parlour workers try to get customers. It should also be noted that this is not a hotel with a reception so you can’t leave bags before checking in or after checking out.
- Anna (8/5): Very good -
- Meirion (7/5): Good -
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
