Guests praise the friendly staff, lively atmosphere, and fun organised events like the pub crawl. Beds are comfortable and rooms are generally clean, though some recent reviews mention occasional issues with cleanliness and noise due to its central party district location.

The Hideout is great if you want to meet people and dive straight into the local backpacker nightlife. I stayed here for three nights during my trip through Vietnam, and it absolutely delivered most fronts.

Overall the hostel is not terrible, however it would be hard to find any actually positive things about it: 1. They should start enforcing the rules cause my only night here was the worst hostel experience I’ve ever had 2. The bedsheets didn’t feel that clean to the point that I put my clothes over the pillow 3. The airconditioning in my room was barely working and i woke up literally like after taking a shower 4. Located on some terrible touristy street close to the walking street
