Terry and Rui·5·Apr. 2024· "I enjoyed my stay here. It is centrally located to many things that I wanted to do and see but generally most things are within 10-20 min. Was easy for Grab pick ups and drop offs. The area, while busy, it wasn't crazy and it was very quiet day and night being offset in the alley. It's comfortable and clean. Anh Vu was great it communicating and setting timeline when he would follow up, which he did. Check in instructions were very clear, detailed and had photos as well - it was much appreciated since I was arriving at almost midnight. I'd say if you just need a place to keep your things and sleep, this is a great option!"

Bank·5·Oct. 2023· "I really loved staying over at Tri's home. He is so lovely and kind. He ended up cooking me dinner and we watched a movie together afterwards. We shared some special conversations and it was nice to make a new friend. His home is also in a great location, very easy to get to Thao Dien and the center of Saigon. So I would recommend his home for anyone coming to Saigon!"

Bernardus Hubertus P·5·Apr. 2025· "I seldom give 5 big stars but here it is really deserved: first star is about the communication and connection Tram is making with his customers. Always attentive and open, very helpful. The second star is for the room which is clean, cosy and tidy. Good value! The third star is for the kitchen and the use of the materials. The coffee Tram is making and the care for his guests. The fourth star is for his flexibility to checkin and out; arranging the things you need or want. And the fifth star is for him personally, a openminded, heartwarming, deep thinking, enthusiastic and inviting personality. I have enjoyed my stay every moment and for sure I will come back."
