I stayed in two mixed dorm rooms here and they both smelled like BO. Little privacy. Beds are ok, but I may or may not have gotten bedbugs! (Both me and the person sleeping on the bunk above me woke up covered in little bites.) Staff is great, though, the cleaning lady saw my bites and switched me to a different bed, and offered me anti-itch cream. Free breakfast is not great, but at least it’s something. One free beer each night. For the price, this hostel is ok, but I wouldn’t stay more that one night if I had to do it again.

good social hostel if it wern't for the smoking
This is a good social hostel. The one thing i did not like is they let people smoke inside in the bar area that you have to walk through to get in and out of the hostel or if you want to hang out in the evening you have to breathe in cigarette smoke all night which i find disgusting

Great place to enjoy with lovely people, the dorm room is clean and suitable for backpacker to stay after long trip. This location is good that located inside the center of the city but the price is reasonable, good choice for everyone.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Loud music playing until late late late, can't sleep. No curtains so no privacy from my terrible roomies. Only fans, no AC for most of the day. Smelly rooms with so many people in it. Dirty bathrooms, no free towels, no water given. Very young vibe, even at 27 I felt too old. Can't meet people cause it was almost too loud to even chat in the common area. Breakfast was just behind the bar, it was poor, just an egg bread and banana. Least favourite stay in Vietnam.

Dear Kevin Thank you so much for your feedback, I would like to clarify all things that you mention - Our hostel is dorm room, so mean that everyone will sleep in one room and stay together. That's the common rule for hostel , not hotel . Our hostel is social so that everybody can easily make friend together. Our AC open all day , and the towels need to be rented with small charge, that's the rule we already share with you when check in.

I don't think I can write enough bad things. Showers have no water pressure, and it's cold water anyways. Don't forget your sandals cause it's dirty floors. No soap given so don't forget that either. No AC except from 12am to 5am, fans help and we where lucky it wasn't to hot outside for our stay. Smelly rooms with lots of boys and they all came in from 3-5am making no ice laughing loudly and playing flute, passing out in bathroom then walking around nude. Granted you will have different bed bunks it just wasn't pleasant for me.

Dear guest, Thank you so much for your feedback. We would like to clarify all things you mention in this review - Our showers at common bathroom using solar panel so it have hot water when using. - Our cleaner perform cleaning so that the floor is clean. - AC will turn off from 1pm to 5pm because at that time not much people inside room. Thats the common rules for all hostel. - For the guest laughing at midnight. We are sorry because our hostel is party so that people come to pubcrawl quiet late. This is a special thing at our hostel.

good memory
First, It is near 'detam street'. So, you can hangout or hideout with many friends From 7pm~8pm. you can get free 1 beer, and talk with hostelcrawl. It was so impressive. because I could feel this hotel owner and workers have been making efforts to make all people one. Actually, Because it was sooo cheap hostel, room was not impressive to me. however, it can be covered by my good impression of this hostel. and I don't recommend this hostel to asian who can't speak english. because you can feel awkward with foreigners. but, if you can speak english, you can be intimate with some of them.
