This place is a rip off. I paid for a room with a city view. What they offered was a room facing a wall. No view. It was a no refund reservation. What I didn't know was that Expedia will not force it's vendor to refund the money, even when the hotel misrepresentats what it offered. So if you book any hotel via expedia you have no rights, even if they put you in the basement.

I was not very impressed with this hotel and I don't believe it meets 5-star standards. We booked this hotel primarily for its central location and 5-star rating, but unfortunately, it fell far short of expectations. he room floorboards were loose with large gaps full of dirt. The provided slippers are likely necessary because walking barefoot on the floors will get your feet dirty. There was hair behind the door, and the towels and bedding had stains. The shower barely drained, nearly flooding the room. It sounded like the room had open windows due to the amount of street noise, even though all windows were closed. The stairs were scary, dirty, and poorly lit. The included breakfast was very limited, and I only went once during my stay. The rooftop pool was so small that I didn't bother using it. I would have canceled and gone elsewhere, but there weren't many other options due to staying during Tet. The only positive things I can say about this hotel are its friendly staff, central location, and the large size of the room. If this was a 3-star hotel I could rate it a bit better. But the main issue for me was the cleanliness.

PLEASE READ

I’m rating this hotel 1 star simply because they list it as a 4 star when it’s a 2 AT BEST. Very misleading. The room is not cleaned thoroughly, as a 4 star hotel should be. The bed is so soft, not good for your back. The shower/sink/toilet are in very odd places. The room windows are the size of prison windows. There’s noise from the toilet in the middle of the night (perhaps when neighbours use it). The rooftop pool is the size of a CLOSET. I don’t even understand how a size like this is acceptable. There are no sun loungers, just chairs and you’re at the edge of the pool. The lady receptionist is very rude. The two gentlemen (doorman and receptionist) were very kind and helpful. The breakfast place felt like a rundown old place. The food was mediocre. Cold pizza for breakfast, soggy eggs,… nightmare. Lastly, this is probably what was the most annoying: the elevator. There is ONE elevator and it’s incredibly slow. It took 8 minutes to get one! Please checkout other hotels, you will find MUCH better even in a 3 star hotel.

The staff were very helpful, particularly with making arrangements for taxis both locally and to the airport. The hotel is a very good mid-range option at an affordable price. I think it must be said that the photographs do make it look a little more glamorous than it is, breakfast was quite basic but fine.
