Bong Sen Hotel Saigon is conveniently located in the heart of District 1, which makes it easy to explore the nearby Ben Thanh Market and other attractions. While the room I stayed in offered a nice city view and a spacious bathroom, the decor felt quite dated and needed a refresh. Breakfast was enjoyable with a variety of options, but the wifi connection was disappointing. Overall, it's a decent choice if you're keen on location, but I expected a bit more given the price.
