seriously, a long, long table with all combination of foods. especially helpful were the english food language place cards. another two tables had ham and cheeses [plus P&J] and fresh fruits. my room large, bright, clean. i had only booked for one night. when i came to desk before checkout time and said, 'i need another night, please', the clerk hesitated and seemed read to say , 'sorry full'. but the manager standing close by, waved her off and i got my next night and another breakfast ticket. i'll return here next year.

My river view room was spacious and pristine with superb silky bathrobes supplied. There was lots of light and lots of lights - something on which some hotels skimp. The staff were incredibly helpful and had sufficient English. After reading earlier TripAdvisor reviews, all this was a shock. I had read these reviews the day before I arrived and fully expected to take one look and move somewhere else. Perhaps there has been redecoration and new management. At $45 via Booking.com it was great value.

While I was sitting in the lobby listening to a news report via wifi one of the receptionists came over with a tasty display of dried fruits for me and said it was to celebrate the New Year. The staff were always gracious. I was sorry not to be staying more than one night (and to have to rise at 3.45 to get an early morning flight to HCM). I look forward to returning.

The rooms are filthy! My family and I stayed here one night and couldn't stand it anymore and left to find another hotel. When we went to sleep, I felt something crawling on me so I decided to check it out using a flashlight. I kid you not that there were bugs on the bed...small but still utterly disgusting to me. Needless to say I did not sleep well that night. The rooms are carpeted but so worn out. The towels were so discolored. The beds were hard as if you were sleeping on the box spring instead of a mattress. We did at least enjoy our breakfast the next day...
