Saigon Metropole Luxury Apartment
Im Allgemeinen waren wir mit der Unterkunft zufrieden. Es gab einen Pool und ein Gym, welche man nutzen konnte. Die Kommunikation funktionierte reibungslos und wir bekamen schnelle Antworten. Auch ein früheres einchecken war möglich.

Lumière Vacation by Urban Home
We really enjoyed our time here. The room was clean, comfortable, and surprisingly quiet despite being above a café. The location was perfect, and having great coffee just downstairs was a big bonus. Would happily stay again!
