Convenient location.
Pros:

Location was very central, close to all the attractions we were visiting (within walking distance). The rooms were spacious and clean.

Cons:

As the corridor leading to our rooms were not enclosed, flying insects (including mosquitoes) kept entering our rooms every time the door was opened.

Pros:

Free upgrade to larger room with riverside balcony.

Cons:

The views were construction cranes and not nice. At night a 100' wide TV screen with advertising ruins the atmosphere. I will not request a river view in the future.

Good location but very tired. The photos are deceptive.
Pros:

Good location, especially as we were catching the ferry to Vang Tau.
Breakfast was adequate.
We only stayed one night!

Cons:

Very tired, the room had an unpleasant odor. The curtains didn't keep out the bright lighting outside the room. The air-conditioner was noisy. It was impossible to shower without wetting the toilet and toilet paper.

HCMC Taxi menace.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Extortion by hotel organized taxi driver on our delivery to HCMC airport after traffic free fast 20 minute ride at 5.35 am seeking fare of 450000 vnd against 250000 quoted. He was able to speak English at the beginning of the journey but on arrival at the airport meaacingly demanded 450000 vnd by typingthe numberinto his calculator. He had no words only gesticulations for new fee. Scary guy.
