Guest Reviews
- Mahesh (10/5): -
- Ben (10/5): 11/10 brilliant stay. Highly recommended - The staff were the best staff at a hostel that I have stayed in Asia. So friendly and fun. Special mentions to Huy, Nam and Ana who were incredible hosts and made my stay special. Thankyou so much! Nothing
- Méline (10/5): -
- Méline (10/5): -
- Reza (10/5): Fun and affordable, would experience this again - Anna and Nam were really great and everything was clean. The location is also great and everything was in good working order.
- Simeon (10/5): Great social place with amazing staff would recommend staying here - Staff members are all so helpful and polite. The owner is a great guy and took us out on bar crawls. Beds are very comfy and private with a lot of storage space. Comfy upstairs seating area. Social. nothing
- Justine Angelie (10/5): -
- Lynden (7/5): -
- Vaughn (10/5): Would definitely stay again - highly recommended. - The best part was the staff. They were all amazing, but a special mention to Anna who went out of her way to make sure I had the best stay.
The location was really good, and very safe.
The beds were comfortable and really thoughtfully designed.
The rooftop was really nice for the free breakfast and free beer in the evening. Also, it was nice having free towels and filtered water. Everything was top notch.
- Marion (2/5): - Le personnel est sympathique.
Le petit déjeuné est bon.
Bien placé, central. Quand je suis arrivée j’ai trouvé tout très sale, les draps ne semblait même pas avoir été lavés.
J’ai eu la surprise de me réveiller avec 2 punaises de lit/ bedbugs sur mon drap !
Ils m’ont eu l’air de prendre le sujet au sérieux, ce sont des choses qui arrivent dans les hostels mais ça reste très très désagréable, chronophage et onéreux de devoir laver l’intégralité de ses affaires et son sac …
Hostel très bruyant, on ressent les vibrations de la musique jusqu’à tard dans la nuit.
Passez votre chemin si vous le pouvez !
- Louis (9/5): -
- MASSIMILIANO (8/5): - Posizione eccellente, molto bello il rooftop bar Spazi comuni un po’ stretti
- Abel Jan (2/5): - Nam was aardig, daarom 2 ipv 1 ster Bedbugs.
Nadat ik een bedbug over mijn bed zag lopen heb ik snel maatregelen getroffen om mijn spullen te wassen. Ik haalde bij de receptie een vuilniszak. Ik noemde verwoord bedbug en kreeg gelijk de zak. De receptioniste wist dus precies wat ik bedoelde.
Het kan een hostel overkomen dat er bedbugs zijn, ook voor hen is dit erg vervelend.
MAAR: toen ik aan de receptioniste vroeg wat ze aan de bedbugs ging doen (deze verdwijnen niet vanzelf) had ze ineens geen idee meer waar ik het over had. Ze had geen idee meer wat bedbugs zijn en sprak plotseling ook geen Engels meer. Het was heel duidelijk dat het haar helemaal niet uitmaakte dat er bedbugs zijn en dus niks ging doen aan dit probleem.
- Trenkova (10/5): Nicest staff and great time - The staff are the nicest people ever and meeting new friends is encouraged as well. So welcoming and always ready to help. The receptionists were always giving us tips about what to visit and do and Nam (the guy working at the bar) is the sweetest person ever and amazing at Karaoke. All in all woule recommend 10/10
- Tushar (4/5): One of the worst experience of my hostel life - The only thing i liked about the hostel was the location. Well where should I start ? First, the dom bed was not clean, they have one bathroom for 8 mixed dom bed and that too inside the room with smell coming all the time.
If you want to sleep, never book this hostel. It is next to party street so loud music comes till late night, unless ur drunk u wont be able to sleep.
I really dont know the reason, how could they have so much good ratings ?
Also, the price you pay doesnt justify the services. Its not what you pay for. Also, many business charge 3-4% extra for card payment, they charge just double 8%.
List is long but u get the idea.
- Juliette (6/5): - L’hôtel est idéalement placé.
Le personnel est sympathique.
L’espace lit est propre et bien agencé, malgré que la chambre soit bien trop petite pour 6 lits. La salle de bain et la toilette sont directement dans la chambre et se partagent pour les 6 lits.
L’espace n’est pas des plus propres, c’est dommage.
Le rooftop peut être une plus-value mais est, à nouveau, assez sale…
- Geir Hugo (9/5): -
- Piotr (10/5): - Super lokalizacja. Obsługa miła pomocna. Dla mnie petarda
- Marina (9/5): -
- Koshi (9/5): -
- neil (10/5): - I've stayed here most times when passing thru saigon
The staff are brilliant & chatty can recommend this place 👌
- Jacqueline (9/5): Muy buena estancia. - Su ubicación y el personal muy atento y siempre dispuesto a ayudarte. Como tiene varios pisos que tenga ascensor es una gran ventaja para subir a la terraza. Las instalaciones un poco estrechas.
- Silja (10/5): -
- Ulf (8/5): First time but not the last time. - Nam var en supertrevlig kille som jag möttes av.Bodde i mixat 8-rum för första gången men det var fantastiskt , som att få ett eget rum bakom draperierna. 1 fri öl p kvällen och god frukost Hög musik , men hostlet var på en liten sidoväg så det var ok.
- Humberto (10/5): - Everything perfect and the staff very helpful
- Caroline (9/5): - La création des espaces personnels ..le miroir++++ les casiers ,la tringle et les cintres top..
Les gens a l'acceuil des mœurs .me roof top génial Les matelas sont usés ,on sent le sommier en dessous..pas confortable et pas assez de douche et pas assez moderne
- Ekaterina (4/5): Мне было некомфортно. - Можно выбрать один из четырех завтраков. Есть лифт. Постельное белье старое и повидавшее жизнь. Туалет общий на комнату. Там же рядом с туалетом Лейка для душа. Выглядела комната, как бичовник… слышно, как долбит музыка с улицы.

- Tamari (7/5): -
- Patrice (9/5): -
- Shane (8/5): - Staff were great and location too. Enjoyed the breakfast and nice roof top bar.
- Oliver (8/5): Für kurzaufenthalt top - Sehr nettes und hilfsbereites Personal. Lage war top. Bett war auch bequem Klimaanlage konnten wir nicht gut einstellen, warscheinlich eher ein Bedienerproblem. Leider kein Fenster
- Chinliang (7/5): - 有免費早餐 半夜還是會聽到音樂
- Consuela (7/5): - The receptionist were all very kind and helpful. The location is great! My room was changed for the same price upon arrival...however this was noisy. Luckily i could change to another room on the top floor which was more Quiet. The beds are amazing when it comes to storage and privacy. Noise pollution from the area on lower floors, breakfast could be more varied.
- Udara (7/5): Good staff other than for roof top bar manager - Receptionist and front office staff was great Roof top bar guy was horrible - please replace him for somebody better. He is so moody and so unprofessional
- Chandvani (10/5): Good location, good breakfast, best for backpackers, a bit expensive but if the owner is good then it is worth it. - The people sitting at the reception handle everything very well. If there is any problem, they just wave their hands off it. Only the girls who serve breakfast are not good.
- Firoz Sayeed (10/5): -
- Ahmed (10/5): Perfect Stay - Everything Nothing
- Lina (8/5): Super ! Je recommande - La gentillesse du personnel surtout la réceptionniste ! De plus dans les lits il y avait miroirs et multiples rangements ça c’est top.
La réactivité également : j’ai eu de l’Eau froide à deux reprises dans les 2 douches mais ça a été rapidement réglé par le personnel.
Pareil pour le petit dej, il y a des œufs dans absolument toutes les options, étant allergique ils m’ont préparé autre chose le matin suivant, génial ! Pas assez d’accroches solides pour accrocher les vêtements dans la salle de bain.
Et il n’y a pas assez de douches malheureusement : 1 dans la chambre et 1 sur le rooftop.
- Hasnain (10/5): -
- Robert (9/5): Good hostel - Great location to get around HCMC. Beds were very comfy plenty of room to keep your belongings safe in a locker and beside storage.
Staff were very friendly and helpful who always made themselves avaliable to support your queries.
I did like the the free first beer on the rooftop bar. A good way to get people to socialise. I really enjoyed the vibe. Its not a party hostel but I loved meeting people on their travels. Shower and toilet tight in room 501. It was nothing major.
- Ivan (9/5): - Чистый хостел, приветливый персонал.
- Tijana (8/5): - 1 Free beer 6-9pm at the rooftop and the kindness of the male receptionist. The entrance to the room is cramped, the temperature in the room was cold (AC 22 + fan), the cleanliness is questionable, and you can hear noise from the bars in the area till 2-3am.
- Lowe (6/5): -
- Parviz (9/5): You can go . - Evreything is excelent Breakfast is weak.
- Omri gal (8/5): -
- Oleksiy (10/5): -
- Louise (10/5): - Really nice staff!!
- Zachary (7/5): Decent budget hostel close to all the tourist attractions - Very friendly and helpful staff. 24 hour front desk. Good location. Decent value for money. Bathroom sink drained slowly. Dark colored interior walls give it a gloomy dingy feel. It was clean, just the paint and old furnishings give it a run down feel.
- Marco (9/5): - Comfortable and good private pod. Bathroom was a little dirty but not too bad. Could hear the bass from walking street during night but thats not the hostels fault!
- Hervé (8/5): Lieu très agréable mais attention pour ceux qui veulent dormir la nuit tôt. - L’emplacement, l’accueil, le confort des chambres. Environnement très bruyant même très tard
- Camille (10/5): -
- Torstensen (6/5): - Veldig romslige senger Badet er veldig lite og blir kliss våt når en dusjer. For hostell så syntes jeg prisen er dyr
- Teo (9/5): -
- Thomas (10/5): Cleanest place but I got drugged - The cleaners were really good I got drugged by one of the brochures

- Perrine (10/5): -
- Vincent (9/5): Für den Preis ein top angebot - Super freundliches personal, vom barkeeper auf der hosteleigenen rooftop bar bis zur rezeption die mir ein taxi bestellt hat bei der abreise (damit ich nicht gescamt werde als tourist, sehr hilfreich), tipps für restaurants, wäsche service, duschen nach checkout anbietet wenn abreise erst am abend ist etc.
Lage ist hervorragend, relativ ruhig in einer seitengasse aber alles wichtige in laufweite. Die Betten haben vorhänge, lampe und stromanschluss Das Bad war schon ziemlich in die Jahre gekommen, und einmal war das klopapier aus und keine seife da
- Mara Sophie Karin (8/5): -
- Olivia (8/5): -
- Gaurav (10/5): Comfortable and social - The property is very clean . The staffs are extremely friendly and hospitable. They can converse English and they really helped us by providing their services like renting a bike that costed us 200,000 vnd and laundry as well . The receptionists (all of them ) are extremely kind and the bartender hui is very fun person .
- Cameron (10/5): -
- Rafaela (10/5): - Localização, café da manhã e as camas
- FAURE (9/5): Très bien pour qlqs jours. - Calme, propre, bonne clim, petit déj simple mais efficace. Ascenseur . Lit avec double coffres, rideaux, miroir, électricité. Une bière gratos le soir en rooftop. Bien placé. Rien, comme toujours en dortoir, beaucoup dépend des voisins et là c'était calme et respectueux.

- Anisha (5/5): -
- Sebastien (10/5): -
- Jai (6/5): Stay was decent but need to increase the facilities. - 1.location was very good. It was very near to Bui Vien Street Walking Street.
2. Staffs were helpful.
3. Bed was comfortable.
4. They served breakfast even if it is before of after schedule time period. Breakfast was included with room fare.
5. They served free beer and rooftop bar was available.
6. Curtain was there to make ur bed private.
7. Had private toilet inside 6 bedded room. 1. There was no locker of rectangle shape. So if you are carrying big rectangle shaped luggage, if could not be able to keep inside locker. The locker shape was square. So u can only keep cabin bag inside it.
2. Locker keys were also not working properly.
3. U have to keep your big sized luggage inside ur bed.
4. They do not provide shampoo, shower gel inside toilets. U have to use of your own.
5. Air Conditioning was also not enough.
- Jan (8/5): A great place to stay - The bed compartments were brilliant with hanging rail, shelf, mirror.
The staff were so helpful with everything from booking activities to helping sort our onward journey to Cambodia. Couldn’t really find fault. We’d heard it was quite a noisy location at night but we didn’t experience that at all.
- DOMINIQUE ROBERT (7/5): Pour le prix et la localisation - La situation géographique et le petit déjeuner inclus qui était bon. Ménage succinct et surtout pas d’eau chaude pour la douche
- jiwei (9/5): -
- donal (8/5): I book two night end up stay for three night - the staff is friendly. i sleep well. it mean i am comfortable with the bed. they bed also has small locker, tiny table, and space to hanging your close, and mirror. its pretty nice facility. they also provide towels and breakfeast which is for that price, its excellent services i wish the bathroom has soap and shampoo. other than that, I have good time.
- Trivina (9/5): Great value for money, friendly staff, comfortable room. -

They have two different cupboards: One for luggage , one for small bags and other equipments. The second cupboard is in the cabin next to bed, they also have a small mirror and hangers in the bed to hang your clothes.
Although I checked out during the day, they kindly kept my luggage and reminded me that I can come and rest till my flights which was late night.
They have one free beer for their guests every night from 6 to 11 pm. on the roof bar.
I felt home during my stay. And the breakfasts were guite good foo.

- Cabinum (10/5): Exceptional -

Lots of hooks to hang one’s clothes and a mirror with a small shelf. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The room was very cramped and there are no common areas except the dinning area on the rooftop which has no shade, in the morning at least
