This hostel is Perfect in every sense!! Its is clean, comfortable, excellent location. Unlike the hostels on the main street this one is located in a by-lane that actually gives you a sense of the day to day life of the Vietnamese people... The staff are courteous and friendly. The even let me take a shower 5 hours after I had checked out! No complaints whatsoever...

Lovely hostel that I wouldn't hesitate to book again if I head back to Saigon (HCMC). Pros: Comfortable beds, extremely attentive staff (they helped me get a SIM card, changed money, booked bus tickets/cu chi tunnels tour), AC, Location Cons: Price is a little high, some staff aren't as fluent in English as Ngoc, I'm convinced this hostel is the best in Saigon. Book it.

Great location. Staff extremely helpful and give us a map which was highlighted showing the best spots for sight seeing food and a couple of bars all within walking distance. The staff also organised our tour to the Chu Chi Tunnels and our bus trip to Phnom Penh. At the bottom of the alley where the Hostel was there were bars selling local draft beer for only 6,000 VND!!! For a Hostel you couldn't get much better.

The staff at this hostel are amazing. They arranged my China visa, helped me arrange sim cards, unlocking of my phone and generally went over and above! The breakfast is great and this hostel is located in a great spot. Would definitely stay again.

Had such a great experience at this hostel. People and staff were very friendly and helpful. I would recommend using their airport service to get to the hostel as they will take you down the alleyway straight to their door.

The Guest house is the place to stay in Saigon. Met so many new friends here and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. They can organize tours, meals, laundry, even a tailor. The location is also great, everything you need is in the alley so you don't have to cross the busy roads. "cam on"

Its in a good location whereby all things are a short walk away 15 minutes. Worst thing about this is the beds in the 4 bunk dorm. Noisiest beds on Earth! It squeaks so loud. If you are on the top bunk it is the worst you can hear the person on the bottom move. Staff are very imformative even with lack of English.

Very helpful staff, good location in the backpacker district. The alley has tons of character and is a welcome respite from the general madness of Saigon. Generally very clean, except that there was a sewage smell coming from the shower drain. Keep the bathroom door closed and you'll be fine.

Hostel is run by a very nice family. They help you book tours and give great advice on places to go. They even arranged a Halloween party for everyone in the hostel and provided free food and drinks! I was in the 8 bed dorm, very clean. 2 showers located on cool balcony overlooking the area. Free adapter to use for laptop, reading lamp inlcuded and AC and locker in room. Had good luck meeting tons of cool people. 6000D or 25 cent beer within staggering distance. BEST HOSTEL in Saigon!

This hostel was brilliant! Our favourite of all the places we stayed in Saigon. The staff were incredibly helpful, and booked all of our further travel for us. I was really impressed but how efficiently the hostel ran even thoughy it was in the middle of a bustling city. I'll definately stay here again when I come back!

I had a great time at this guest house. It was located in the middle of the backpacker area but in a small alleyway away from the noise of the busy street. The owners were fantastic with arranging activities for a day in the city or tours on the Mekong. I highly recommend this place as personally I got on really well with the family that owned the guest house and they were very happy to help with with any problems.
