Rex Hotel
This our third time at the Rex . They really make the effort for a nice stay . The pool is perfect , the am breakfast is extensive and tasty . The location in the heart of D1 surpasses staying at the VINhome complex ( we have done that as well )

Le Saigon Hotel
AC was nice and cold. Hot water was only warm. Not only would I stay again I extended my stay 2 nights. It is a quiet neighborhood but that also means there is not as many places around. Bed was comfortable, and also no bugs.
