Rooms are clean with comfy bunk bends and the family really takes good care of you. We almost woke up late for our tour but thank god we got a nice morning call from the staff. They even made our breakfast for us to bring along. The morning pancake with an assortment of fruits and jams was a simple delight.... More

We stayed here for 3 nights in an a/c private double room for $15 per night. The start price was $18 and included breakfast but they discounted to $15 if we didn't have breakfast. The room was okay, a double bunk with single bunk on top. The bathroom was tiny with the usual 'shower over the toilet' but as there... More

Stayed here twice whilst in Vietnam, both times for 2 nights. Clean, tidy and staff are very friendly and helpful to organise tours and travel in/out of the city. Well located, easy to get to the markets and cheap places to eat and drink.

We stayed at the dorm for 3 nights. The dorms where ok. Although the aircon could be turned on, a little bit more often. Breakfast is ok, I liked the pancakes.

We stayed here as the first stop into Asia. It was a fantastic place to stay, and all the staff were really helpful. It can be alittle hard to find, but is well worth it. The food in the alley is great, and the people here booked a tour for us which was fantastic. Would definatly stay here again. The... More

My partner and I stayed here for 1 night. We were pretty happy with our time here. The pancake for breakfast was amazing! and staff are really nice and helpful. Didn't really like having to take my shoes off when entering the hostel and the hot water didn't last as long as I'd like but theyre minor complaints. Overall it... More

This place left me with mixed impressions. I liked the free breakfast and the location. In fact, it is so centrally located that I only took the taxi twice: from and to the airport. There are plenty of places where to eat around the neighborhood as well. Take note, though, that it is not like Hanoi where you can find... More

Found this gem on HostelWorld.com. Located in what's essentially an alley where all backpackers stay in Saigon, it's a great little spot. I stayed in Room 201 with my husband. It was the last leg of our Vietnam adventure and we were just looking for a clean, air-conditioned place to stay for our last night in town. When we checked... More

We chose this little gem from reviews on TA and are glad we did . From the moment we arrived we were looked after better than any of us expected with helpful advice to help with sim cards and most of all the help that was offered when our daughter had a day/night of vomiting . I would highly recommend... More
