    A noise-free stay in Bui Vien

    The bed is a bit thin and hard. It might be a bit difficult for those who are not used to it. There is only one toilet and bathroom, but maybe I was lucky and I always found it empty.

    Even though the hostel is right in the heart of noisy Bui Vien, there was no noise in the room. The air conditioner cools sufficiently. There are curtains on the beds, each bed has a lamp, a shelf for storing small items, an electrical outlet and a fan. The employees are very kind and helpful in every way. There is a nice balcony where you can smoke or sit and enjoy. On the ground floor there is a washing machine and a well-equipped kitchen.

    There is some sound from the busy street, the beds are a bit wobbly and the bathroom is really small but everything works for the price.

    Perfect hostel if you do not want to pay a lot. The price is incredibly low.

    Nice little place in the small streets of district 1. The hostel is really central and near to the bus agencies, so it's useful. It's also just next to the main night street, but not too noisy. There is lots of food in walking distance, the park and public buses. One dorm room and a shower, a kitchen you can use, and the living room. Nice and cosy.

    Comfy bed, personal shelf and fan and power outlets. Good hot water and kitchen for use, location couldn’t be better. Hostess was fantastic and let me wait for hours while waiting for my bus. The only true downside is that it is quite physically small and only one bathroom (toilet +shower connected) for the entire place. And the bathroom is physically narrow, a very large person would have trouble.

    Nothing to complain about! With such an affordable price, the service exceeded my expectations.

    Breakfast includes sweet bread and coffee (or green tea upon request). The host is friendly, always ready to chat and answer any questions. There are always two housekeeping staff cleaning every morning and evening. The living room features a large sofa and an extra-large TV—I had a great time watching Netflix. The space is quiet, perfect for focusing on work; you can sit at the large kitchen table or relax with a smoke on the balcony. The location is excellent—within walking distance of all the city's attractions.

    There was nothing I didn’t like.

    The location is right in the heart of Bui Vien Street, yet you can’t hear any noise at all. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need to cook your favorite meals from back home. The door is secure and has a coded lock. In the common area, there’s a TV with Netflix and many other digital platforms available. The owner of the hostel is also a very sweet woman. Overall, it’s an excellent place for the price.

    The only con is not spending more than 2 days there!

    Amazing hospitality and a real homely vibe which is a lovely and refreshing feeling. The facilities are great and even have free use of the washing machine! The location is perfect for travellers trying to see both the ever lasting night life and general day time activities Ho Chi Minh has to offer :)

    Cheap, so very basic. There's only one shower/toilet in the same space to share with the whole hostel. It's kind of a small homestay and not a very social hostel to meet people .

    Very good location near the central attractions but in a quiet alley. Chill couch to sit on. It's a very cheap option in HCMC and the staff is kind.

    Small cozy hostel in the heart of Saigon! Four bunkbeds and one private room! Bui Vien is right through the alley and the street above is the major pleace where all busses depart or arrieve in Saigon! The living room is very spacious with 2 big couches and huge HD TV with YouTube Netflix! The AC in the doorm is powerfull, great for sleeping and it's on even thought the day because of the heat! There is a full kitchen, free cold and hot water non stop and I could even wash some of my clothes when they wash the bedding from the check out! There is also a light breakfast in the morning with tea or coffee! Overall great value for money

    I like that the hostel is within the private house, so you can feel Vietnamese vibe instead of backpacker vibe. It’s not too big which makes it no too busy. Although it’s in the alley right next to the main pub street there is no sound heard during the night. There is AC in the room

    Filthy. Mold on some parts of the bathroom, dusty here and there. More like a homestay than a hostel, lots of personal belongings everywhere and it felt like living in someones home. Breakfast is very depending on mood of the owner, some day full meal breakfast and other day bread pieces and jam.

    Good location and the big bus station in District 1. Bar street nearby but not so noisy during the nights. AC works properly and the beds are ok. Staff is nice.
