It was so nice to be out of the weird vibe of district 1, this place felt much more like real Vietnam, and still so close to the center. The hostel has different areas where you can chill (sofas in the entrance, fitness room, little rooftop etc.), which I love to have when I'm in a dorm. And the sheets were veeery very soft, slept like a baby. All in all, you can stop looking, you've found a great place to stay in Hô-Chi-Minh-city.

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.
