For $20/night, it was more than sufficient to meet my needs of having a place to sleep and shower while exploring Hanoi. My room faced the front where it was a bit loud and ear plugs fixed this. When I mentioned to the front desk there was not a tv remote in the room, they sent one up. This place also offered a breakfast, but I was too curious to try the numerous cafes in the area. Happy exploring without breaking your wallet on lodging! ##### Erica Stayed 2 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### thi thu trang Apr 21, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### thi thu trang Stayed 1 night in Apr 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Miguel Feb 13, 2019 Liked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Caos por año nuevo chino Al ser año nuevo chino todo fue un caos mejor que no abran el hotel.. Para empezar el transporte del aeropuerto al hotel que reservamos se llevó a otra persona con mi nombre tuvimos que esperar una hora pero al final nos lo solucionaron . Por lo mismo el hotel no tenía staff por lo que no nos limpiaron la habitación en tres días El desayuno fue terrible y aunque el manager hacía lo posible por tenernos contentos era imposible... Por otro lado la habitación y el baño estaban limpios y modernos la cama súper cómoda Volveríamos solo por eso y si el staff esta completo yo creo que estaría mejor ##### Miguel Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jun 21, 2018 #### 街の中で便が良い ホテルの場所が通りから路地に少し入りやや見つけにくいでした　 朝食付きでしたがメニューが少ないでした ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### YOSHIHIRO Jun 1, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### おすすめのホテル 表の通りから奥に入って、ホテルを見つけにくいが、部屋は清潔だし、広いし、朝食も美味しいし、サービスは全般に良い。 ##### YOSHIHIRO Stayed 1 night in May 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Jinki May 3, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### 유니버셜 호텔 추천 그가격에 괜찮은 편입니다. 호텔 위치와 간판을 찾는데는 좀 어려운 점은 있으나, 입구쪽에 은행이 있어서 그렇게 불편은 없어요. ##### Jinki ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [TMS Hotel Da Nang Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Da-Nang-Hotels-TMS-Hotel-Da-Nang-Beach.h29282295.Hotel-Information) > > [Windsor Plaza Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Windsor-Plaza-Hotel.h1136855.Hotel-Information) > > [Caravelle Saigon](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Caravelle-Saigon.h69803.Hotel-Information) > > [L’HÔTEL du LAC Hanoi](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-LHotel-Du-Lac-Hanoi.h82988573.Hotel-Information) > > [Sherwood Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Sherwood-Suites.h19316222.Hotel-Information) > > [HANTING HOTEL - HO CHI MINH CITY (胡志明汉庭国际中心酒店)](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Sunland-Hotel.h7069958.Hotel-Information) > > [Liberty Central Saigon Riverside](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Liberty-Central-Saigon-Riverside.h6456944.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Hotel Hanoi](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Hotel-Hanoi.h5702839.Hotel-Information) > > [La Vela Saigon Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-La-Vela-Hotel.h44328578.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Da-Nang-Hotels-InterContinental-Danang-Sun-Peninsula-Resort.h4583505.Hotel-Information) > > [The Oriental Jade Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-The-Oriental-Jade-Hotel.h36117374.Hotel-Information) > > [The Reverie Saigon](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-The-Reverie-Saigon.h9287591.Hotel-Information) > > [Sala Danang Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Da-Nang-Hotels-Sala-Danang-Beach-Hotel.h35708398.Hotel-Information) > > [La Siesta Classic Ma May](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Hanoi-La-Siesta-Hotel-Spa.h8964136.Hotel-Information) > > [Rex Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Rex-Hotel.h481670.Hotel-Information) > > [Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Sofitel-Legend-Metropole-Hanoi.h49234.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Saigon Grand Opera Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Sheraton-Saigon-Hotel-Towers.h910861.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Hyatt Saigon](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Park-Hyatt-Saigon.h1202309.Hotel-Information) > > [Hanoi Royal Palace Hotel 2](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Hanoi-Royal-Palace-Hotel-2.h6747597.Hotel-Information) > > [Hôtel des Arts Saigon - MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Hotel-Des-Arts-Saigon-MGallery-Collection.h11463205.Hotel-Information) > > [Silverland Yen Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Silverland-Yen-Hotel.h3485039.Hotel-Information) > > [HAIAN Beach Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Da-Nang-Hotels-HAIAN-Beach-Hotel-Spa.h24295542.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Majestic Saigon](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Hotel-Majestic-Saigon.h481665.Hotel-Information) > > [La Siesta Hoi An Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Da-Nang-Hotels-La-Siesta-Hoi-An-Resort-Spa.h18279351.Hotel-Information) > > [Da Nang Mikazuki Japanese Resorts & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Da-Nang-Hotels-Da-Nang-Mikazuki-Japanese-Resorts-Spa.h4790557.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Meridien Saigon](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Le-Meridien-Saigon.h10470130.Hotel-Information) > > [Flamingo Resort Cat Ba](https://www.expedia.ca/Hai-Phong-Hotels-Flamingo-Cat-Ba-Beach-Resort.h49095190.Hotel-Information) > > [O'Gallery Premier Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-OGallery-Premier-Hotel-Spa.h15868395.Hotel-Information) > > [Hanoi Pearl Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Hanoi-Pearl-Hotel.h6614063.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Nikko Saigon](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Hotel-Nikko-Saigon.h4604698.Hotel-Information)
