Ulasan Chez Mimosa Local

Positive: The room we stayed was very cute and the air conditioning worked well. The staff was very kind and they definitely tried to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The breakfast was very delicious, even tough you have to pay about 150,000 Vietnamese Dong extra per person, and they even offered fresh passion fruit juice. Negative: Our bathroom was not nice at all. We still cannot figure out what smelled, but something did very badly. The plumbing in our shower did not work, so it took hours until the water had drained off after one had taken a shower, creating our little swimming pool in our bathroom. In the end the flushing of the toilet also broke. However nice the staff was, they could not speak English well, so the communication was difficult. The area the hotel is in was absolutely horrible and every trip outside of the hotel room is a near death experience. The scooters drive carelessly and sometimes you have to wait 10 minutes to be able to cross the street. We could not figure out where and how the busses drive, so we had to walk to every attraction in the suffocating heat, as we are on a budget and could not always pay for a taxi. Therefore, we only saw a limited area of Ho Chi Minh City. It is very dirty everywhere, there are free dogs and their droppings and it smells so disgusting on the street that we often wished, we would be able to not breathe for a while. It was worth seeing in what conditions people have to live, but I still would not recommend staying in any part of the area surrounding the hotel. There were people peeing on the sidewalk, while others were selling fruits from the floor on the other side of the road. However, this experience did lead continuously to the realization, what a luxurious life we have in Germany, which is no doubt very important. Still I would think twice about coming here, we were shocked, frightened and overwhelmed.
