    No complaints. Except that they gave my room to somebody else. Thankfully they found a similar room for me in other nearby hotel.

    Vietnam and Vietnamese people seem nice.

    We didn’t stay in koniko itself but 3 beans hostel 2 doors down - our bedroom was facing onto the main road so much noisier through the night - loud music from 9pm-4am and screaming children in hostel - not a great night sleep!

    Good comfortable bedroom, all amenities needed! Friendly staff - help booking tours etc

    They only have stairs to go up the room especially the 4th floor. It's not good if you have big and heavy luggages

    It's so accessible to all the famous places

    As I checked in, 3 rats were chasing each other next to the hotel entrance. Seems to be quite common in that neighbourhood (or in general in Ho Chi Minh City)

    Friendly contact with hotel staff. Basic clean room and bathroom. With window to the courtyard. Quiet but in the tourist hot spot. Laundry in 4 hours until 11 pm.

    The floor of the room was a bit dirty, and the faucet in the bathroom was not staying straight. If you catch a grab or taxi from the hotel, you will have to walk a bit to meet the car. The car will stop on the main street, not the side one.

    The location is great, and the manager is always available on WhatsApp.

    There were a few ants around. It didn’t bother me too much; think a common problem in Vietnam.

    I wanted a private room instead of hostel dorms for the first few days of my backpacking trip since I had long travel hours, was arriving late and would sleep late the next day. The room met my expectations. Staff were friendly and let me store my luggage on my final day after checking out. The room was air conditioned with a remote to adjust it as I wished. Toiletries and towels were also provided. Great location right by the walking street but also quiet - I heard nothing throughout the night

    The toilet could be cleaner and some of the electric plugs are not working well. But that's quite common in southeast Asia on this and higher budgets.

    Great value for the money. The lady is really kind and helpful. The location is pretty good to visit the city and for food as downstairs there's a very good pho restaurant and street food available at anytime. Another pro can be that downstairs there are a lot of options for nightlife, which can be also a cons if you don't like some noise around.

    The cooling system worked great but it was difficult to adjust so the room was either a bit stuffy or too cold (in December at least). The bathroom did not drain very well after showers .

    The price is great for the location as it is very central. The woman at the front desk was very accommodating and great service. There was a refrigerator in the room that worked quite well.

    Our room smelt very bad, we spent the entire time trying to figure out where the smell was coming from, which we believe came from the air conditioning system as it only smelt bad after it had been on and not when we first arrived. Also, although we booked Koniko Hotel, we actually stayed in Lyly Hotel; this wouldn’t bother us really, just worth noting.

    Good location and the staff were really lovely and helpful

    It is not a hotel, it is a laundry with rooms. The pictures are false advertising. The "hotel" desperately needs renovation, and the furniture in the rooms are broken. It is cheap, but there are both cheaper and better alternatives with the same location. I do not understand the rating it has gotten on Booking.com.

    The location is OK, and the lady running the place is friendly.

    It can be a bit noisy since it's close to partyplaces etc, but it didn't disturb us too much.

    The woman the own the hotel moved us to the hotel next to hers, and the day after we got to choose which hotel we stayed at and we chose to stay on the top floor of the same hotel. The view is really nice, and the room has a balcony around the whole room. We really liked it. When we checked out the owner let us leave the baggage for one day so we didn't have to carry, she did this for free.
