I stays near the airport, you can imagine my headache whenever I fly back to Vietnam. What normally would cost 16k dong, they quote me 50k dong or US$5. Sometimes i just go straight into the taxi without telling them my destination first, the moment I said hong ha, they gave a loud sigh or shows black face. Chi bai airport taxis!
just like in Changi Airport if you go nearby Paris Ris or Simei, you see the same colour

hey bro, you can always drop by those bar/club mentioned here if alone. I normally like to spend afternoon in cafe with ice coffee and watch those gals going in/out.. and then go to bar/club where I like to make friend with the waitress over drink..and sometimes supper..
and of course, always learn to take care of yourself if going out alone..
The news in the ST papers (Sg version) today doesn't paint a gd pix of happening at Vn now..with the Hanoi's NCentury case, and country-wide sweeping to track drug/pros/... maybe not a good time to head to Vn for the moment...?
wonders whether Palace still close after 12 midnight or on the dot??
guess all big clubs will stay compliance during this period...

My friend just got back VN and stayed at one hotel in Nguyen Van Giai St, Da kao Ward, Dist 1. Told me the hotel very cheap at S$25. Did a search and it nearby Da Kao market and near to Ben Thanh market too.... Any bro familiar with this place and have any recommandation....? Thanks...
This period? Is that the election in Vietnam or what?
have you read about the raid of New Century disco in Hanoi?.. usually when something big news happening will affect HCMC's club in one way or another..

da kao ward is not so near ben thanh market lieh, if i am not wrong. It is at the corner of D1, next to Binh Thanh District and D3. Window Cafe is near there.
I rather recommend those hotels near to Ben Thanh market. Of cause the price is abit more expensive. USD20-30 will fetch you good enough hotels

There are a number of small hotels in the area near Ben Thanh market but I use the ones over on MTB. You can maybe get some info and reports from backpackers sites.

Hi,
I stayed in Thanh Long Tan Hotel for 12 days b4 i moved to my apartment.
It is a 2 stars hotel and it cost only US$25.
Less than 50m walk to Ben Thanh Market.
By the way, their breakfast cannot make it.
Better take breakfast outside. (Banh Mi) + (Ka fei nuoc) = less than SG$1
The Address of the Hotel,
Thanh Long Tan Hotel
19-21-23 Truong Dinh Street, District 1
