Rooms are small, furnitures old and air conditioner not cold enough. Very basic features. Common areas like corridors lift (only 1) and frontage including reception have better presentation than the rooms. Breakfast also very basic but can fill you up. I guess that's all you get for a US$30+ room i HCM.

The hotel looks nice from the outside since it is newly renovated but please do not be deceived by the look. Rooms are terribly small and most of the room & bathroom's accessories eg. bedsheets, towels are all old. Some of them are from other hotels nearby. There are no safes in the rooms. Elevator is not even working properly.... More

Terrible service, they even want to charge USD50 for airport transfer where i can get for USD10 for taxi service from airport to the hotel...

Very good location, they are under rebuilding the ground floor and it doesn't have breakfast in the hotel, and you have to walk outside just 2 or 3 blocks to do it in another hotel(The White House-they give you a breakfast-ticket), where the breakfast is very good...The maids are trying all day long to keep the hotel clean and they...

PROS: (1) location. You're on the main road so the famous Ben Thanh Market is only a few blocks away, so you're surrounded by restaurants, massage, hair salons, etc. (2) rooms are decent size - again, as expected in Asia; and clean. (3) staff are friendly and helpful. They tried to answer any of our questions and gave helpful suggestions... More
