    I got the same room this time, but noticed that the TV inside the room got removed. Didn't mind it much, though.

    This was my second stay at Mao Home, and I enjoyed it as much as the first. The host was warm and welcoming. The room was clean and comfy. Will definitely come back to try the host's coffee at his newly opened cafe nearby.

    My room located at 4th floor, the stairs are narrow & quiet steep. Luckily I only bring 1 cabin baggage. If you're traveling with children or bring huge suitcase, it may not suit you. The water pressure of the overhead/rain shower also quite weak. While the shower head got some leak. This place located inside small alley, so if you use Grab or taxi, you need to drop or get in from the main road then walk a little bit. If you're Moslem or afraid of dog, be aware because the house have a pet dog that stays at the entrance.

    Very spacious for very affordable price. It's very close to La Vela Saigon, the busy junction & quite strategic. I can walk to Pasteur where they have Katinat and Pho Hoa. You can also walk to Tan Dinh Church. The bathroom is clean, all amenities were provided including a hairdryer. The toilet comes with water spray/bidet. The room lighting and ventilation on bathroom also great.

    -the location was okay, but not in a touristy area. It was very local, so not many restaurants nearby -the room was quite high up, so there were lots of stairs

    -the bed was very comfy -AC worked perfectly -very clean -light room -it was very quiet

    I loved this place so much! It was definitely the best place we stayed at in HCMC. Felt right at home and the two brothers who run the place are so kind and friendly! Not to mention the wonderful sweet dog Hasso ❤️ I wanted to rebook, but unfortunately it was already booked out. If you have the chance to reserve this place - don’t think twice! It’s lovely 😊

    Not a major issue but while the staff was very friendly there was a language barrier so asking the owners questions via WhatsApp was a better option.

    Clean spacious room in a small guesthouse. Bathroom was nice and well above average compared to places in the same price category. Lots of vegetarian food options around. I was sick during my stay and could recover well during my time. Cute and playful dog :).

    Ours best stay in two weeks of Vietnam. Tom and his brother are great guys. Even the dog at the entry is always friendly and waits for you happy every time. Place is clean, cozy and quite at night. They also make good coffee at the lobby. After first three days at HCMC we went further and left our extra luggage here. No problem with that so we booked extra two nights on the way back. So it was our safe base and it felt good to come back. Definitely a recomendation!
