Great value in district 1

Great value and really good location, very close to the market in district 1. We had a deluxe twin room, no window but we didn't spend much time in there. Would highly recommend the restaurant opposite, think it was called Huong - had a spectacular meal there. The market is mainly tourist tat and felt quite pressured from the stall owners.

Once again like a month ago my experience at California hotel was a nightmare. See my last review,! Upon arrival after paying with Expedia I was told the hotel was full!, I was moved to an awful dirty "hotel" across the street. Inexcusable behaviour by the hotel and staff.

Definitely recommend

This hotel is centrally located in district 1 which is where you want to be in the downtown area here. The staff are very friendly, checking in was a breeze all of the staff are attentive to our needs and thoughtful as well. Nam is the friendliest staff there! Good job Nam! The Ben Thanh market is a 3 minute walk from the hotel and the choices for food in the area are in abundance. The room is very comfortable. The only thing I would have to recommend for the room is that the safety deposit box should be bolted down to a wall or structure… It was free moving so if I locked anything in the safety deposit box, somebody could still just lift it up and walk away with it. Also, the room that we had… There are no windows, which is a bit claustrophobic at first, but thankfully, the air conditioner works like a dream. There is hot water for the faucet, but there was no warm water for the shower at all. There is a complimentary breakfast buffet every morning for anyone staying there… Everything from local cuisine to pancakes and toast; I can even make fresh omelette based on how you want it. The rooftop pool is a nice bonus. The cushions on the rooftop on the chairs are all stained with sweat or sunblock, which is a bit un-appealing to want to sit on. Despite some of the shortcomings, I would still highly recommend this place because of the service and location. Bed is really comfortable too! Does it sound like like putting down the place with Ask for Nam - he is the best ever!
