With in years due to poor maintenance it started to lose its charm. So, general review score reflects the situation. After nicely asking our room was upgraded/changed due to a fresh paint odor. Location of the hotel is quite OK. If you prefer to stay closer to the airport this is a nice option. In case you need to go to downtown you can easily use public transportation lines.

The first was five years ago, I had a wonderful experience. The more recent visit was good but not as I remember. The room I stayed was a little outdated. Finally there is no parking at the hotel. I had to pay for parking across the street. Overall I still liked my experience, and would not mind going here again. ##### Adnan Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Thanh Nov 18, 2023 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Room is too small and needs a lot of work. ##### Thanh Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Than Mar 13, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Dirty and smells bad, ##### Than Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Nicole Dec 3, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is like a motel 6. Everything is outdated. No sound proof. You can’t really lock the door except the amateur bolt lock. The cleaning staff knocked on the door early in the morning & opened the door. Very unprofessional. I only stayed 1 night but it was more than enough. The bathroom & room was old.& outdated. I won’t stay here again ##### Nicole Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Thanh Toan Tomy Sep 14, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Based on the pictures of the hotel, I expected a lot more from the business, but I was sadly disappointed. When I first walked into the business, I noticed the condition of the hotel appears to have diminished a bit. It felt more like a motel than a hotel. The service at reception was average; nothing to write home about. Unfortunately, this was only a precursor to the quality of the rooms. The online pictures showed the rooms as bright, inviting, and cared for; however, the rooms I received were a stark contrast to those expectations. The rooms were dingy, cramp, a table with a damaged corner, dirty walls with multiple stains, and a whole bunch of scuff marks everywhere around the room. The bathroom was dirty with mold growing in the cracks. It seems there was a lack of care in keeping things presentable and sanitary. For a hotel rated 8.4/10, I expected a lot more from the reputation. Sadly, it seems the rating was more a representation of perhaps their past achievements and not their current performance. It was my last few days in Vietnam and this left quite the sour taste in my mouth. I returned the keys within an hour of receiving the room and left. I found a different hotel that had better quality, better service, and cleanlier than The Alcove ##### Thanh Toan Tomy ### 4/10 Poor #### Mark Dec 15, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### It’s not as advertised. At least not currently. This may have been a nice hotel at some point but it is no longer the 4-star hotel it is billed as. More like a 2-star. The room was dark with only two tiny windows that didn’t look out on anything (one was more of a vent hole) and some glass brick for light. It was depressing. It also looked like someone had been living in the room. The shower was moldy with a slimy feel to the floor. The furniture wasn’t really clean, with stuff on the coffee table and stains on the couch. The lobby had one or two motor scooters parked in it at all times, blocking one of the few places to sit (as if we’d want to sit there). The restaurant is no longer open and there is no breakfast. There is a small cafe in the courtyard that is nice but they offer no food besides yogurt cups. The courtyard as actually a nice place to sit. There isn’t breakfast available near the hotel unless you want Pho (which we like but not for breakfast) We were depressed by the room and situation and requested for them to let us out of the second and third nights, but they refused so we stayed. We put up with it but did not enjoy our stay. Fortunately, we’ve had much better places to stay on our trip and this one was just a rough patch. There are better places to stay for a similar price in Ho Chi Minh City. ![The shower, yuk](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/733B199B056CF6D53DD4FA6A61ADDE51406089A01671105030647.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Small and dark pop-out window](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7D18FEFF6D64B74BF3BCA2AB2189068635D32B321671105022733.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Tiny little window.
