I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean, but they felt a bit outdated. The staff weren't very helpful, and the service left a lot to be desired. However, the location was a highlight, being close to the night market and riverside restaurants. The dining experience was unfortunately disappointing, with food left exposed for too long, which impacted the quality. Overall, it's probably not the best value for money.

The hotel has a great location near the Mekong River, which enhances the overall experience. However, the cleanliness of the rooms and the quality of the breakfast were quite disappointing. While I did enjoy the beautiful views from the balcony, the hard bed and lack of towels by the pool left something to be desired. The service was friendly but did not meet expectations, as communication was a challenge.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was stunning, right along the Mekong river, and the views were beautiful. However, the service left a lot to be desired, as I found the staff unhelpful and not very friendly. The rooms were decent but not as spacious or comfortable as I expected. Dining was another letdown with poor food quality. Overall, while the scenery was lovely, the shortcomings in service and dining made my stay less enjoyable than I had hoped.

The hotel is very affordable at $60 per night, but I encountered several issues during my stay. The rooms were spacious and well soundproofed, but the overall cleanliness was lacking. The service was unhelpful and unfriendly, and the breakfast was almost inedible, which was quite disappointing. On the bright side, the location was convenient for accessing the Central Business District.

I had a decent stay at the hotel, which offered good views of the Mekong River and the city. The rooms were spacious but felt a bit tired and could use some updates. The location was nice, a short walk from the city center, though at night it was tricky to find a tuk-tuk. Unfortunately, the service left a lot to be desired as the staff wasn't as friendly as I had hoped, and dining was disappointing, especially breakfast, which was often cold and left uncovered. Overall, the hotel has potential with a few improvements.

The hotel is located right on the riverside of the Mekong, which offers great views and a lovely atmosphere. However, I found the rooms to be overpriced and lacking in cleanliness.

I stayed at a hotel that had a large and comfortable room with a nice view of the river, but the bathroom shower design really caused a lot of water to leak onto the floor, which wasn't ideal. The service was a bit lacking as the staff struggled with English, and there were quite a few mosquitoes around. The location was somewhat far from the center, making it a bit inconvenient for nightlife. Overall, while the price felt high for what I got considering the shortcomings, there were some positives as well.

The rooms are spacious, but I found them a bit outdated considering the price. The staff was friendly, albeit with some language barriers.
