The hotel locates in a short alley that goes out to either Pham Ngu Lao or Bui Vien. Though it is only less than 5 minutes walk to the noisy Bui Vien walking street, the alley is absolutely quiet with many other hotels and restaurants coexisted, lots of outdoor tables along the alley filled with mostly more matured Westerners eating and drinking beer quietly looking at each other and passers-by.
Hotel rooms are clean and fairly new, amenities are in good condition. Morning buffet is decent with different choices to adapt eastern and western guests. I extended my stay that lasted betwen Jan 10 to Feb 5 2019 with direct booking through the hotel manager Ms. Dung, an affable sweet young lady who is proficient in handling her tasks.
There is a modern shuttle bus #109 that goes between Tan Son Nhat airport (SGN) and Pham Ngu Lao bus station which is 3 blocks walk to the hotel for 20,000 vnd, less than US$1.00, a fraction of the normal taxi rate, and is good for travelers with wheeled luggages. There are lots of travel agencies with tour buses travel to all over Vietnam nightly in the area.
Overall I am pleased with my stay and would return on my next trip probably 9 months from now.
