The hotel is right in the middle of it all, so if you don't mind hustle and bustle once you step outside, this will work for you. The rooms have wide windows that allow sunlight in, but unfortunately, they smelt like 1000 cigarettes just went out. Even on the 5th floor, there was still a thick paint smell lingering around.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room, while lacking a window, was convenient and had decent beds, although the shower was small. The immediate move to a smoky room without a window was a downside, but the service in arranging the change was prompt. The location was excellent, close to key tourist spots in district 1, but the absence of a bar and the room size being cramped were drawbacks. The dining options offered a good mix of Western and local dishes, but there were some limitations. Overall, a decent stay with both positive and negative points to consider.

My stay at the hotel was quite an experience. The room, although bright with a big window and great night view, lacked proper soundproofing and allowed for smoking and open doors. The bathroom was decent, but the shower was small, and the beds were on the firm side. Be mindful as some rooms have no windows at all. However, the location was incredibly convenient, near the Ben Thanh market, and close to all the main sights in the center.
