Khách sạn Hoàng Ngân

If you're dead-set on being in this area, you can do far worse than this hotel for the price (I have, avoid "Happy Inn" two buildings down from this one). The free breakfast isn't good, but it's free, and that's nice in this area where finding a legit Vietnamese non-tourist trap is hard to come by. It's right across the street from a pricey, but pretty nice, nightclub. If you have an option, don't stay on this street. It's just full of bus loads of tourists and you won't feel like you're in Vietnam unless you take a taxi away from here.

I had a one day stay at HCMC before heading out to travel around Vietnam... The hotel by Itself isn't fabulous to write about but I needed a place to spend one day and night in HCMC and it fitted perfectly to my requirements ...

First of all, you have to make sure if your room has a window or not. My room didn't have a window. I didn't know that there is no window when I booking online. I may did not carefully look at the options.. You have to make sure if you are booking a room with a WINDOW or not.. I booked smoking room but there was no smoking room in the building. This hotel is non-smoking hotel. ^__^ There were elevator so it was good..(I stayed in a hotel without elevator in Hanoi..It was surprise for me when I arrived. ^_^). Booking for Vietnam hotel next trip, I will consider if there is elevator and window for my booking.. This hotel was okay for me. Staff were kind and room was clean even there were no window.. This area has many other 3-4 star hotel nearby. Walking distance to many restaurants(10-20 min.) As I'm a Korean Canadian, I was surprised there were so many Korean restaurants, coffee shops, fast food store even bakery from Korea..I felt I'm in Korea..
