Mãi Mãi Hostel Homestay

Mãi Mãi Hostel Homestay is a homestay in District 1 of Ho Chi Minh City, with air-conditioned rooms that have balconies and views over the city. Its three room types are two double rooms, each with a private bathroom and a walk-in shower, and a mixed dormitory with six bunk beds and a shared bathroom, so it works for couples, friends and solo travellers alike.

The property has a bar, and its common areas are covered by CCTV and 24-hour security. Free WiFi runs at 286 Mbps, enough for streaming and video calls on several devices, and the homestay is non-smoking throughout. The rooms come with free toiletries, towels and linen, and the double rooms add slippers, a hairdryer and a coffee machine. The Deluxe Double Room is the one with a flat-screen TV. There is no parking on site.

The homestay sits in the centre of the city, close to the Bùi Viện nightlife, and Tan Son Nhat International Airport is 5.5 km away for arrivals and departures.

Mãi Mãi Hostel Homestay has three room types, and every one of them has air conditioning, a balcony and free toiletries. The two double rooms are 25 m² each, sleep two guests and have a double bed, a private bathroom with a walk-in shower and a coffee machine. Both have a city view and a landmark view, so the choice between them comes down to the television: the Deluxe Double Room is the one with a flat-screen TV.

The third option is a mixed dormitory with six bunk beds for up to six guests. It measures 25 m² and has a balcony, air conditioning and a view, but its bathroom, with a walk-in shower, is shared with the other guests. Towels, linen and free toiletries are provided in every room, and the dormitory suits travellers who are happy to share the space and the bathroom, while the double rooms suit guests who want their own bathroom and a little more privacy.

The rooms are air-conditioned and all three room types have a balcony. The property offers free WiFi running at 286 Mbps, enough for streaming 4K video and video calls on several devices at once, and it is non-smoking throughout. Guests can also use internet services, and the bar on site is the main point of food and drink on the property.

Bathrooms are supplied with toilet paper, towels and free toiletries, and the rooms have linen. The private bathrooms in the double rooms have a shower or a bath, and the views from the rooms include the city and the landmarks. The double rooms add slippers and a hairdryer, and there is a coffee machine in each double room. Common areas are covered by CCTV, and the homestay has 24-hour security, so the building is watched day and night.

There is no parking on site, so most guests arrive by taxi or ride-hailing car, which is the simplest way to reach the property with luggage.

The homestay is on Bùi Viện street, the backpacker street of District 1 in the Pham Ngu Lao area, where bars, cafés and restaurants line the pavements. Beer 102 Bui Vien, The Dragon Pub and Bar Má are each within 50 m, so the nightlife starts almost at the front door. A short walk away, Saigon Evangelical Church is 150 m off, and the Ho Chi Minh City Fine Arts Museum is 700 m, so the quieter sights are close by as well.

Ben Thanh Station, the metro and rail station, is 650 m from the property, and Saigon Railway Station is 2.4 km away. Tan Son Nhat International Airport is 5.5 km away, and taxis or ride-hailing cars are the simplest way to cover that distance with luggage. Two bus stations are within walking distance: Bến xe buýt Sài Gòn at 400 m and Bến xe Sài Gòn at 450 m, which makes long-distance coaches easy to reach on foot.

For sightseeing, Ben Thanh Market is 800 m away and Thai Binh Market 450 m, so you can cover both markets in one morning. Independence Palace is 1.1 km away and the Museum of Ho Chi Minh City 1.2 km, both reachable on foot or by a short ride. Nguyen Hue walking street and the Opera House are a short ride away in the same district. For a break between the sights, September 23 Park is 300 m away, and Crescent Lake is 5.3 km away for a longer outing.
