Guest Reviews

• Noelia (10/5): Genial - Personal muy amable! Ubicación muy buena. Buena relación calidad-precio
• Jack (9/5): -
• Irufan (10/5): -
• haani (10/5): - The room was clean and spacious with lots of storage. The staff was very prompt and friendly. Location is walking distance from all main locations.
• Guest (10/5): I will go anyway again - Top hotel
• Khai Theng (10/5): - It is such a great value property. And great hospitality provided by the staff Location is quite inside, but you can always grab/BE from "Mama Thai"
• Katanyoo (10/5): -
• Elina (9/5): - Very comfortable stay with such pleasant staff! Room is better than on photos
• Yu (10/5): - Nhân viên rất nhiệt tình, thân thiện
• Udo (10/5): - Gut No
• Guest (8/5): Schöne und saubere Unterkunft. - Sehr großes Zimmer mit viel Komfort.
• Paul (10/5): - Nice open space with lots of windows and natural light. Friendly and helpful staff. Great value and location overall. As with most places downtown, the noise from the alley could be a bit disruptive at times. An extra lamp and fan would have been nice minor touches. A small couch in the room would have been a welcome addition as well, and there seemed to be plenty of space for one.
• Aaron (10/5): Perfect stay - In the middle of the city and walking distance of basically all main attractions. Huge space and lovely room.
• Fanny (10/5): - Great room and service ! The location was perfect
• Guest (10/5): - 服务人员非常热情，主动提供周围推荐的餐饮和游玩的地方。有任何要求也马上满足，非常帮的体验，也非常值得推荐。
• Elisa (10/5): Ottima posizione! Consigliato! - Ottima posizione. Vicino a bar, ristoranti e alle principali attrazioni del distretto 1. I ragazzi che la gestiscono sono molto simpatici, gentili e super disponibili (nonostante le difficoltà linguistiche). Consiglio assolutamente. Niente.
• Guest (10/5): - Phòng rộng rãi sạch sẽ, các bạn nhân viên hỗ trợ nhiệt tình, mình được nhận phòng sớm và hỗ trợ cho checkout trễ xí
• Iasonas (8/5): -
• Becket Mary (9/5): Value, comfort and peaceful - Amazing Room large with Netflix. Very comfortable and relaxing. AC needed fixing, promptly corrected
• Alejandra (6/5): Regular - Los anfitriones fueron muy serviciales y la ubicación está bien. El baño es muy incómodo porque no tiene separación entre la ducha y el resto, entonces cuando te duchas mojas absolutamente todo el baño y tienes que sacar todo para que no se moje. Y por supuesto esperar a que se seque para no mojar el resto de la habitación. Cuando reserve la habitación no incluían foto del baño y es algo que deberían incluir ya que es muy incómodo.
• Wei Yung (8/5): -
• Giulia (10/5): -
• Ross (10/5): - Best I have had in this category of accom in HCM
• Maricar (9/5): Hotel location is amazing - The room is so big. We love it! And Hotel loc is near to tourist attractions, coffee shops, bars. We also like the homey vibes of it. We slept really well 🙂 No elevator. So if you have super heavy bags, you will have a hard time. Our room was cleaned i think only once during our stay.
• andrea (10/5): Best place so far where we stayed in Vietnam - The room is fantastic and modem Nothing
• Ramona (7/5): Sehr schöne Unterkunft die sauber ist. Allerdings für Alleinreisende Frauen eher ungeeignet. - Es war sehr sauber. Die Zimmer sind sehr schön groß Es ist sehr versteckt aber man findet es gut, da man eine genaue Wegbeschreibung davor erhält. Allerdings als Alleinreisende Frau etwas beängstigend, da man durch Gassen gehen muss die nicht stark begehen werden. Es fehlt ein Aufzug.
• Charlotte (10/5): Exceptional - FANTASTIC!! The rooms were so spacious and clean. The decor was amazing. The location was fab and the staff were so so kind. Great value for money, we hope to be back !
• Adéla (10/5): Exceptional -
• Bogdan (8/5): Very good -
• Marcus (9/5): We really liked the amount of space provided in the rooms and there cleanliness - We really liked the laneway location of the property, and the lovely smelling scent used when cleaning the rooms which were always spotless The reception area could be a bit more welcoming (air conditioned, local are info, staffed, drinks available etc). It would be nice to include some kind of floor towel for the bathroom and to provide more toilet paper in the room
• Sven (9/5): Clean room with very good value for money - + very clean and even with a special sealing at the bottom of the room door (so that no bugs can enter) + spacious room (though with lots of "empty" space and not really much useful furniture like a desk) + location close to the center of HCMC, yet in a small side street (not accessible by cars), so it was relatively quiet, as there was not the usual traffic noise that you would hear throughout most of HCMC + very fast internet (I measured 277 Mbit/s download speed and 261 Mbit/s upload speed) + very good value for money - as mentioned in other reviews as well, the bathroom is a "classical" Southeast Asian bathroom with no separation between the shower and the rest of the room, so after showering the whole bathroom is wet (for one night this didn't disturb me much, though) - communication was a bit difficult, as the staff on site spoke very little English (so one could communicate via Google Translate or by calling another person who spoke English)
• Blossom (10/5): Exceptional - We really enjoyed my time here. The room was super clean and comfortable, and the location was perfect—just a short grab to the center of Ho Chi Minh and surrounded by tons of great restaurants and street food spots. The owners were absolutely lovely—so friendly. Overall, a great place to stay if you want something clean, convenient, and welcoming. Highly recommend!
• Nguyen (9/5): A bit hard to find at first since it's located in a small alley. While it doesn’t offer a city view, the balcony is -
• Lisonali (8/5): Very good - Room is lovely, fairly quiet, good location. We'd definitely come back. The staff are very accommodating and friendly and nothing was too much hassle. Cars can't get to the hotel but it is only a short walk down an alleyway so no real drama unless you have a lot of luggage. As others have mentioned showering causes the water to go everywhere. More powerpoints in the room would be great.
• Lipokla (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lipokla (10/5): Amazing - Everything- kind and wonderful owners
• Hai (10/5): Exceptional -
• Vladyslav (9/5): Superb -
• Freya (10/5): Gorgeous stay in the heart of Saigon - Such a great location, super comfortable and lovely staff. Would absolutely stay here again and recommend to friends.
• Trí (10/5): Exceptional - I love it here. It has bigger rooms than most and a good price, too.
• Erin (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice staff.
• Thuy (10/5): Exceptional - Super clean, loved the interior. The location is right behind the shopping street and my to go massage spot. Will def come again. Only thing is they don’t have an elevator which I don’t mind since I like walking up and down. The staff is also ready to help you with your luggage if it’s too heavy.
• Shelby (8/5): good value room with lovely staff - great size room with storage and a comfy bed. they also provided water bottles and gave me a notebook souvenir. the bathroom door can't open all the way because otherwise it would hit the sink.
• Ricardo (10/5): Best service you’ll get for your stay in Ho Chi Minh - Great and huge apartment in good location. However, the best by far is the staff. Super friendly couple always available to help you out. They were really fantastic!
• Gracie (10/5): Exceptional - Clean, great location, nice staff, comfortable large room!
• Alex (9/5): Superb -
• Jerlyn (8/5): Huge room and good location! - Location is good. Huge room. Just few points : Towels are tiny. Was not prepared for the stairs. Balcony has no access from the room which it was alright as it was hot to stay there coz of the aircondenser was placed on the balcony wall. Bathroom shower in an awkward position making everything wet. Need a better bath mat. We arrived 1 hr early and was told since check in is 2pm we need to wait. We wanted to use the bathroom. however, the toilet available under the stairs was too short. A 6'2" tall can't stand straight at all. It was a mission.
• Albert (10/5): Exceptional -
• Katja (9/5): Great place. I highly recommend! - The staff was really nice and helpful and the location was perfect. Only thing is that the bathroom is poorly decorated.
• Una (9/5): Really amazing Amazing merit - The accommodation is on a quiet, small street, but very close to the action. We walked everywhere, and in a city as big as Ho Chi Minh that is amazing. The room was very big, even bigger than I expected. There is a kitchen on the ground floor that can be used and it's well equipped. The AC works great, cools down the room without blowing cold air so you can sleep with it on, which was needed because of the big heat and humidity outside. The TV in the room has Netflix. The staff is very responsive and kind. Not my favorite that there is no boarded up shower or curtain. However it drains well, so no flooding on the floor.
• Lucy (7/5): Good - Room was very large & once used to the alley loved all the activities & locals in it Local shop at end lane Only 2 PowerPoints in whole room Shower made toilet wet & very slow draining Although lots local character it is 1-2 from main tourist sites
• Robert (8/5): Very good -
• Andra (10/5): Exceptional -
• Dina (10/5): Very nice place - I stayed here before new year. The owners of the guest house are supper friendly and helpful. The place is very clean and the location is very good. The room was very big and comfortable. Nothing
• Hermann (9/5): Clean and pleasant hotel for a few nights in Saigon, central location, lovely hosts - Conveniently located in district 1, so good location for exploring the city. The hosts are wonderful and very helpful in every regard. The room is spacious and clean, had everything we needed. A/C worked really well. There is a kitchen on the ground floor with a fridge where you can help yourself to water bottles. We had a great stay there. When leaving, our hosts gifted us with a package of Vietnamese instant coffee and two fans which was a heartwarming surprise. We would definitely come back! Not a complaint, just an information: The alleyway from the main road to the hotel is small, dark and not so pleasant. Cars cannot take you to the entrance. You will need to walk for a couple of minutes which we didn't mind at all. Also, before arrival the hosts will send you a detailed description and pictures of how you will find the hotel. With that you cannot go wrong. Previous reviews had mentioned getting lost there, but this issue has been taken care of in a very helpful way.
• Josy (9/5): Very good value for money central stay! - Very spacious room, large comfortable bed, central location, super clean. Basic but perfect for all your needs. Bathroom floor a little slippy, but I am being picky!
• Inge (10/5): Really amazing! - Great location, no noise from the street, clean room, comfortable bed and lovely staff. Would definitly recommend!
• Michael (10/5): Great place! - Very clean, very spacious, super friendly and awesome location right in the center. -
• Ozge (10/5): Excellent host and great location - The host are incredible and very helpful. They even help me print my visa for Cambodia and the house is very clean and tidy. Great location as well The wall opposite the the hotel lol but it is not their fault
• David (8/5): Very good -
• Patrick (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely host family and very comfy clean beds
• Natália (10/5): Exceptional - The best place. Spacious, quiet, center location, i loved it.
• Taekman (9/5): Superb - Very clean and thoughtful setup No breakfast. We knew it does not provide breakfast but found it very inconvenient in the morning.
• Terence (7/5): It was fine and not expensive - Clean, spacious, centrally located in the tourist area. A home stay really. The young people who own it try very hard to please. The room was ok but under furnished and rather soulless. The home stay had no atmosphere. The shower is a wet room and a little dangerous, a slippery floor and nothing at all to hold on to.
• Tristan (10/5): Perfect - Large clean & comfortable room on a quiet side street in walking distance of the main attractions.
• Obrien (9/5): This is a cute little gem in District 1 with lots of places to eat and shop near by. - Located in District 1 close to many shops and restaurants. It is small and quaint and located at the end of an alley that is lined with local shops. Very clean and secure, with no noise heard from the busy streets. Owners were very friendly and helpful both prior to and during stay. We would stay here again. Bathroom small - no shower stall so floor gets quite wet and slippery
• Naren (10/5): Exceptional -
• Neil (9/5): A quiet oasis right in the middle of the city. Highly recommended. - A quiet oasis right in the middle of the city. Very lovely couple. Sparklingly clean. Excellent aircon. Wet-room shower.
• Jason (10/5): Exceptional - Really big room, very clean and great AC. Good location. I would be happy to stay again.
• Goda (8/5): Great budget stay - Great location - hotel is situated only a short ride to main attractions or the streets with restaurants or local markets. There are lots of little shops nearby and the location is very quiet and good to sleep Tiny ants constantly occupying the bed where I slept. There was a foul smell of sewage in the bathroom.
• Paul (8/5): Enjoyable.staff were very helpful and pleasant - It is centrally located , in an obscure side street. Clean comfortable, basic . Quite safe. Located in an obscure side street which the taxi driver was unable to drive to . Consequently, we had to pull our bags quite a way to get to .
• Graham (6/5): Simply utilitarian and devoid of any life or ambience. If that is what you are looking for then a decent option in terms - Location, modern, clean Lacks any personality or character. Room poorly designed without bedside table on each side, almost no plugs and on the far side of the room, poor placing and use of spartan furnishings.
• Katy (10/5): A lovely stay. Nira was extremely helpful sending recommendations and answered any queries we had extremely quickly. - Great property all around the room was very large. All facilities provided for We liked everything
• Janet (9/5): Comfortable modern room with friendly owners - Modern, clean and large room and fantastic owners. Really comfortable bed with nice linen. Very happy with our choice for our 3 night stay in HCMC. Tucked away in a little alley with local life happening and a great Banh Mi shop a minute walk away for our breakfasts 😀 Nothing
• Al&g (9/5): Superb - Very clean, there is a shared kitchen with the ability to cook something.. Cool guys - the owners of the property are ready to answer any question, help, fast communication via WhatsApp.. Spacious room, comfortable bed, we rented a room with a balcony. Every day they offer water.. Safe, the main gates are on electronic keys.. Excellent location, center, next to 2 famous Ban Mi.. When checking out, they gave me a notebook for notes, very nice.. The shower is built into the wall and water spills all over the bathroom, but if you leave the exhaust fan on for 3-4 hours, it practically blows out everything...
• Jun (10/5): Exceptional - The owners are very kind. The room is spacious and very clean. Located in a small lane behind the street, it provides the rare quietness in the hustle and bustle of the city centre. No separation between the shower and the rest of the bathroom, though we well know about it in advance, is not most convenient, but it turns out not a big issue.
• Darren (10/5): Exceptional - We had an “amazing” stay here for 4 nights. Nira and all staff were very welcoming and helpful. We would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Ho Chi Minh! Nothing
• Jihoon (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jihoon (10/5): Exceptional -
• Katja (8/5): Very good -
• Kim (7/5): Good -
• Isaac (10/5): Highly recommended five stars - Perfect location. Excellent room size. Friendly and helpful staff. 5 stars. Nothing
• Brian (10/5): Exceptional - The room is very spacious and clean can't fault anything and will definitely stay again very impressed. Good location and friendly staff ,well done
• Maria (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing
• Phan (9/5): Superb -
• Saurabh (6/5): Pleasant - Room was quite spacious and the staff is also really nice. The bathroom was poorly designed and inconvenient to use—it even flooded during my shower, which was quite frustrating. Additionally, the location of the property is not ideal. It’s a 200-meter walk from the main road, which was particularly challenging for us as we had to drag heavy suitcases along an uneven and poorly maintained path.
• Mishika (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lucia (10/5): Apartment with perfect location - Amazing location, very clean apartment. You can use shared kitchen which is fully equipped.
• Ida (9/5): Great location, very quite at night but close to main attractions. Clean room. - Very central location, felt safe and nice. Clean room and host was very quick to respond my messages. Smaller lamps next to the bed would be nice, not just one lamp in the ceiling. Bathroom got very wet after showering since there was no shower wall/curtain.
• Vivien (10/5): Excellent newly renovated hotel in a quiet alley - We liked the hotel so much on our previous visit that we returned for our final night in HCMC. The ‘deluxe double room with balcony’ is highly recommended. Everything is brand new & spotlessly clean. The room is very large and the bed excellent. Thank you! Nothing!
• Shayle (10/5): Great place to stay, very comfortable and quiet. - Amazing Merit was a great place to stay for our first visit to Ho Chi Minh City, being located in a quiet lane in District 1. The hosts are very friendly and their communication is excellent. They make themselves available to answer any questions and provide useful information for visiting the city. The room is spacious, the bed is comfortable and has a good hand held shower. We would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended.
• Ivetaib (10/5): Exceptional - huge And modern apartments, friendly staff
• Katayoun (10/5): Beautiful, quiet and near all the action in district 1! - Knowing we were staying for 5 nights, we opted for the bigger room. It was so spacious, so many storage places and it was just beautifully designed. The staff were so welcoming and very nice during our stay. We absolutely loved the location. So easy to get to by the local bus from the airport (about a 5 minute walk). We were 2 streets away from many main roads yet it was so quiet. We were even gifted a beautiful notebook which we found was so sweet. I certainly recommend everyone to stay at this location. Can’t really say anything bothered us at all.
• Rettler (10/5): Exceptional - Nice small hotel deep in the Saigon walking streets, basic, but clean and cozy room. Quiet, which is a big bonus in Saigon. Close to all attractions in the center. Welcoming and attentive staff. No complains. There is no separation between shower and other parts of the bathroom and everything goes wet after 1st shower, but that's typical for Vietnam.
• Bruna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Linh (10/5): Exceptional - When I first stepped in the room, I had to WOW because the room was HUGE! Really spacious! Big comfy bed and nice AC, the Internet was strong too. They have little balcony with no view but still nice. The bathroom is decent! All and all the room is huge and clean The couple that runs the place is friendly and welcoming. He even helped me to carry my suitcase upstairs. The only disadvantage is that they don’t have anh sockets next to/near the bed. So you have to charge your phone next to the TV. Also no light switches near the bed so you would have to get up and go all the way to the door to turn on/off the lights.
• Vivien (10/5): A large attractive room, with great balcony, in a quiet neighbourhood - The room was very large with a nice balcony and bathroom. There is a lot of storage space and the bed is new and comfortable. The host was friendly and provided a fast and cheap laundry service. The alley is relatively quiet and the neighbourhood has lots of restaurants and is close to sights. The bedroom floor needed mopping.
• Tran (10/5): What an amazing experience! - What an amazing experience! The check-in process is very smooth with extremely polite and caring staff. The room is new and spacious with well-equipped facilities. There is a balcony to enjoy some hot coffee with sunshine as well. It is absolutely an amazing stay. Will definitely come back here again soon! Nothing.
• Kexin (8/5): Very good -
• Christopher (9/5): Superb -
