Reviews of Saigon Style Hostel & Cafe

It was close to airport and they are providing locked storage for luggage toothbrushes and towels.

Nothing

The rooms were kept clean, the bathrooms were clean and functional, and the place had a water purifier to reduce plastic waste. The only complaint is that when I would sit on the first floor many people smoke right in the cafe/lobby. There are cheaper places, but if you want a nicer experience, it may be worth it.

Really good location!

pro: staff friedly though in middle of city center (dont know if that should be considered as a pro thing at all, I would reccomend to avoid district 1 and go somewhere else, if your not planing to hang out in Bui Vien everyday...) price ?! (actually I had better for half the price in VN, but yeah its in the city center so...)

con: fake reviews (like with pretty much everything in Vietnam, aways read the bad review first!!) rooms to tiny for the amout of people not enough bathroom not realy clean a lot of rude costumers who dont care about other people, staff does not set/force any rules its constantly loud because of nearby club at least one bed next to window fells like birds living next to your head bed not comfortable hostel sells worst SIM provider ever (better go to Viettel-store outside tourist area!)

Great location. Easy to get to all areas on my list for this trip.

The hostel is clean and well run and you can sit in the cafe area and socialize,efficient laundry service available also, The ticket offices and pick uo point for sleeper buses to many destinations is convieniently nearby on the same road near Mc Donalds.. lots of eating options around and a nice shady park to sit in and watch the world go by,

No complaints!

Great staff–so friendly and helpful. The location is very good, near the tourist center. It is affordable. The common area is like a cafe. Good internet. Storage lockers are conveniently located in the room, with an area for shoe storage also. A fridge to store your food. Beer for sale.

Because it is located next to a market, it can be loud in the mornings, around 5:30 am. This isn't the hostel's fault, simply a note. The bathrooms outside of the bedroom (on each floor) could have more attention.

The cleaner came in the dorm very early and was banging about cleaning and tidying......

Rude reception staff during my day checkin. No refrigrator to put my items there. I asked the staff to use my medicines in fridge in ground floor he replied angrily no fridge for you . Not even a glass for drinking. Dirty bathroms. Highly not recommended. High noise from the street and retailers.

Saigon Style Hostel & Café is a great and safe place to stay. Hostel is located centrally. Park, bus station, supermarkets, ATM, pharmacy, cafes, restaurants, market, massage salons, strip bars and Bui Vien party street was near the hostel, within 1-5 minutes of walking distance. It was very comfortable that there is a noisy fruit and food market in front of the hostel. My 8-bed mixed dorm room was very clean, with bathroom and toilet. Clean bed with towel has been provided. Cleaning lady was cleaning the room every day and replacing used towel with clean and fresh one. There is a big locker in the room. Internet connection was on/off first days, but then stable rest of my stay. Hostel team informed me about some repairing works and asked to move to other 6-bed dorm room after couple of days of staying in 8-bed mixed dorm room. Bathroom design of the 6 bed dorm room was unusual: Bathroom door can’t be opened fully as it hits a sink. Toilet paper holder was installed weirdly. ;0))) But everything was okay and possible to use. Warning: There are a lot of stairs in the hostel. No lift/elevator. It will not be easy for travelers with huge bags or suitcase to walk up/down. Overall, everything was perfect. Hostel team was a great joy and asset. Thank you very much.

What made me sad: 1. Hostel doesn’t have kitchen for travelers where we could cook own food or even electric kettle to make own tea. 2. Bathroom door in my 8-bed mixed dorm room was so creaky and noisy each time when somebody opened it during day or night time. 3. Some men travelers sprayed entire bottle of their perfume on their bodies each time before going out. I had headache because of that perfume smell in the hot air. I don’t understand why people use perfume in a hot and humid tropical country. 4. A man in my 6-bed dorm room used toilet but never flushed it. It was uncomfortable to go to the bathroom when “nature called” and see somebody’s piss or poop in the toilet.

4 bed dorm: Fantastic location, very friendly helpful staff, good café, good prices, big locker.

Considering the low price, you can't expect much. However, for a one-night stay, it was a good experience, though I wouldn't stay longer. The female dorm was clean, and the bed was comfortable. The staff were friendly and accommodating, especially when I arrived at midnight due to a delayed flight. They thoughtfully asked if I preferred a lower or upper bunk. The location was excellent, conveniently close to the main bus station with direct bus access to the airport. The WiFi connection was excellent.

The bathroom in the female dorm was dirty, and I encountered a large cockroach. The shower hose was broken, adding to the inconvenience. The bed curtains in the female dorm were too short, allowing light to filter in whenever other guests left the lights on. The hostel lacks soundproofing, so all indoor and outdoor noises are easily heard. A large market in front of the hostel generates a lot of noise, making it unsuitable for light sleepers—something you might have noticed when checking the location beforehand. Additionally, there is no elevator, and the narrow stairs make it challenging to navigate with large suitcases.

There is a market downstairs, and there was noise all night I couldn't close my eyes. I was upstairs in a bunk bed and it was really close to the ceiling I got a hit on the head that made me dizzy, I arrived late from the flight and there was no hot water, the room and shower were not clean, there was a smell of mold, in the closets and in the room itself. I felt like I was in the street, I closed 2 doors and ran away after 1

The bed was comfy but I was on the upper bed and it was too close to the "ceiling wall'

The location is a little bit too far from the center

The location is good for walking the downtown area and also for the bus system. I stayed here because I was catching a bus early in the morning. So this allowed me to walk to the bus quickly in the morning. Everything seemed good, overall, at the hostel.
