I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the exceptional hospitality you provided during my recent trip to Vietnam. As a first-time international traveler navigating a stay at a hotel on my own, the initial nerves were certainly overwhelming. Your warmth and friendliness, however, quickly dispelled any anxieties I had, turning my stay into a truly memorable experience. Amidst the various moments that made my trip special, one stands out above the rest—the night before my departure to the U.S. Around 10:00 PM, a friend reached out with an urgent need for medications, adding a layer of complexity to my already tight schedule as I needed to pack for my 4:00 AM flight the next day. Navigating an unfamiliar location heightened the challenge. When I shared my predicament with you, I was profoundly touched by your selflessness. Without a moment's hesitation, you offered to accompany me to the pharmacy store. Your willingness to walk with me late at night made an indelible impact on my sense of safety and comfort. I genuinely appreciate your kindness and support during that crucial moment. Experiences like these underscore the true value of great hospitality, especially in unfamiliar settings. Your gesture not only assisted me in fulfilling a favor for my friend but also elevated my entire trip, making it more meaningful and enjoyable.

The water pressure was strong, heater was good. Many eateries nearby. The owner (the woman) was very nice and accommodating although she couldn’t speak English. When she saw us bringing a plastic of clothes, she asked “laundry?” then she brought us to nearest laundry (not self service) and it’s affordable (45,000 VNĐ for around 4 kgs). She also helped us to communicate to the grab driver when we ordered the grab food. Very happy!

    The host is really friendly and very accommodating. The location is clean and the dorms have curtains. For the ridiculously cheap price you can't go wrong. There is a strong air con and additional fans, and lockable boxes for the bags under the beds. The water in the shower was hot and the hostel is in a great location.

    Everything in the unit is brand new. It feels like staying in a 5-star hotel. There is an incredible night view of Ho Chi Minh City outside the window. The price is much cheaper than a 5-star hotel. Great host, very efficient in helping us. I was very satisfied with the whole check-in process. The unit was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. There is a 24-hour supermarket downstairs, which is really convenient ❤️

    Definitely one of the better hostels in Saigon. Very affordable, clean, and quiet. The receptionist is very kind and warm. I even enjoyed a home-cooked meal at the establishment. The hostel did above a cafe and restaurant, but you don't hear the noise. The sound insulation is spectacular. The restaurant is also cheap and has many tasty items. The location is ideal--there are a few restaurants and convenience stores nearby, and District 1 is a cheap Grab ride away. I will definitely return to this hostel.

    Nice small guesthouse with a great host. The location is very good, on a surprisingly quiet alley in a busy area of the city. The coffee shop downstairs is nice and serves good coffee and drinks for a reasonable price.

    This was our first stay at Sunny (stayed twice) and we were very impressed with this cosy guesthouse. The staff were wonderful, always smiling and happy to help us with anything especially Quỳnh who assisted us with our car and bus bookings and providing meal options. The guesthouse is in a great location but down a quiet alleyway so it is very peaceful for sleeping at night. We enjoyed our stay so much that we booked to stay a second time.

    Super helpful and friendly host. Honest. Great location. Secure and quiet. Wifi, hot water, AC, kettle all works great. They let us store bags after check out. Good laundry service. Tricky to find..take the alley across from the park. There is a big C store then a couple doors down Fat Daddy restaurant then the small alley. Follow it around ( right then left) and you will see the small padded ramp into the building.

    The host is really friendly. He bends over backward to make your stay the most enjoyable possible. He provides a towel, toothbrush, toothpaste, soaps in the bathroom, and a reusable bottle of water (no plastic waste) that can be refilled for free downstairs. It's in a great location, just north of Bui Vien Street, but far enough away that the dorm is really quiet. The host also speaks Vietnamese, English, German, and Cantonese fluently.
