Amazing and lovely ❤️”

What I love the most about this hostel is the staff here. They are very friendly and that made me feel like home. Although the price is really really cheap, free breakfast is offered (sandwiches with eggs) everyday. Besides that, you can order food from the hostel menu and the staff will make it for you with a very reasonable price (for eg: noodle with egg, hotdogs, kimchi for only $1.5). And it's just some steps away from Bui Vien walking street where you and your friends can chill together :D. Will recommend this place to my friends!

Value for $$, comfy bed, quite in such happening area”

The bed is comfortable, with individual lighting and curtain, good for privacy. Toilet in the room, convenience. Quite during night time even near the happening street. The location is slightly inside the small street, bit difficult to find it, but with this you can get a peaceful place for good sleep. We have extend our stay from 2 days to 5 days. The staff allow us to put our luggage when we have 2 day 1 night trip away from HCM city. The only bad thing is the space in the room is a bit limited for the big luggage.

Unsafe hostel”

Never go this hostel. The 1st night when I stayed there, a stranger come in from the front door at 3am and robbed 6 people in the lobby and in 2 rooms. There are 2 employees in the lobby and they didn't even see anyone. The robber just come in freely. What's worse, all the camera didn't work just that night. I am very angry also with their attitude after the case. The owner didn't want to meet us and even blamed us for everything. He didn't have a sentence for caring about us neither helped us to deal with the police. After the case, the hostel didn't make any change to enhance the security condition. Furthermore, the sanitaire condition is not good neither. There is a lot of dust and hair on the bed. Also, there is 0 service in this hostel, the day time receptionist doesn't work and has a very bad attitude with the customer if we ask something. I cannot understand how they got this rate. If you want to be safe, just don't go this hostel.
