The hotel is centrally located in the heart of the city, making it convenient for exploring the tourist spots nearby. The rooms are cozy, but the heating was lacking during the freezing weather, and the small bathroom was not as clean as expected. The service was spot-on, with staff available at all times and ready to assist with housekeeping and tour arrangements. The dining options were not included, but if you fancy classic fried fish, it's available. Overall, a decent stay with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel has an amazing location in the heart of the city, very near with the train station. The rooms offer a mix of views, some come with cheap towels and windows facing a dump but they also have mattresses inside. The service was excellent at all times, and the housekeeping was top-notch. The dining options were not included but they did offer pho. The facilities were basic but adequate for a comfortable stay. I found the price to be reasonable for the value provided.
