Very clean guesthouse and it's like you're staying at your own house. The Ngoc family is very friendly and helpful. I love staying at the lobby - watching tv, talking to co-backpackers and staff, using the computer for free while sipping coffee or tea (free). Cu Chi Tunnels tour and bus ticket to Phnom Pehn were taken care of by... More

This place is a pleasure to stay in- I paid $7 a night for an immaculate en suite dorm room (with A/C and an unnaturally comfy bed) and really good location. They provide free tea and coffee, and a nice tv area in front. But the most striking feature is how helpful and friendly the staff are- great advice about... More

This simple but very clean and efficiently run budget guest house is a comforting refuge from the hustle and bustle in the center of District No.1.

The friendliest hostel staff I ever met, Mrs Ngoc and her sisters and her little baby. They will help you about itinerary, excellent tour and transportation booking, and lot of information about Saigon with good English. They will give you the best things. Maybe one thing that didn't work was the wi-fi didn't work well in my 1st level room,... More

We stayed 3 nights at ngoc thao in a double room. The room was on the small side, but contained all the necessary objects. The staff is very friendly and we decided to book two tours. Both tours were a bit touristy, but overall fun and very cheap. We enjoyed our stay at ngoc thao and would recommend it to... More
