It seems to be a family-run business, so it feels peaceful and warm. Kind. It's a little far away from noisy areas so you can spend a quiet time. However, the distance to the center is only about 500m. There are many restaurants in the surrounding area, and the customer base is mostly locals, with few tourists, and the cost of food and drinks is low.

I stayed here twice and would definitely stay again. The location is excellent, yet it’s very quiet inside. Facilities are pretty much new, it’s comfortable, and clean. Both the capsule and the storage locker are very spacious. The host and his family are warm, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. I asked for recommendations, like where to eat, and his suggestions were spot on. 100% recommend this place to anyone looking for a calm, cozy stay in the city centre.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

One of the best hostels I've stayed at in Asia! The hostel is really beautiful with great facilities e.g. a hair dryer and a pool to use. The staff are really friendly, they let me check-out late, they stored my luggage for me whilst I did the loop, and they let me change the dates of my booking last minute. The beds are comfortable with a bedside light and storage locker as well as lockers big enough for my 55L bag. Great location. Really enjoyed the free walking tour which helped me meet other travellers.

We booked a room as we were just arriving in Vietnam for a long trip, the room was good, confortable and clean. The rooftop is the place to go if you want to meet some backpackers and take a drink!
