This hotel need some TLC.
So I booked this hotel because I saw there was a big price drop. I think like 40% off. The hotel is rather old. It definitely needs some upgrading. Room was fine, nothing special. It definitely did not look like the pictures that were posted. Overall just a cheap place to stay with a very dated kind of run-down Hotel. If you plan on staying in Saigon and are looking for a cheap place to stay with nothing special, this hotel is fine. Another thing is if you have children you might not want to stay here, there is a big flashing neon sign offering massage. I did not get 1, but I assume it's not the typical spa massage.

Pictures are deceiving, although; friendly staffs.
Pictures are not what is advertised (not even close you would be scared to see the differential between the picture and actual life). Wifi is terribly slow best time would be around 4-5am, if you plan on using the wifi. Other wise it's better to just walk out to a coffee shop to use their wifi. Rooms are leaky, unclean and has a weird odour aside from the smoke smell. The staff are friendly and helpful when needed. Price option I would rate this hotel is if you get it within 7-10$ u.s/ night other wise you could find way better elsewhere.

Room size smaller than advertised.
Make sure they give you the correct room size. The room they gave me is smaller than what expedia says the size is. They don't have white sheets and blankets like most hotels do, so you don't know if it's clean or not. They have a shady massage place on the 9th floor. They charge 300,000 for a 2 hour massage, plus tip. I negotiated for 1 hour for 150,000, and 300,000 for the tip. For a total of 450,000. I gave them 500,000, and the attendant decided to keep 50,000 tip for himself, even though he didn't do anything for me. First of all, they had no hot water. I normally like to shower and bath before a massage. Second of all, the massage girl kept playing with her phone. I told her multiple times to stop using her phone, but she wouldn't stop. I raised my voice and then she finally got the message and changed massage therapists. This second one didn't play with her phone, but rushed the service. 30 minutes into it, she decided time was up. I had no recourse because I already paid the tip. Make sure you pay all tips afterwards, and don't let the attendant try to take your change as tip.

Just OK
I stayed at this hotel for a weekend getaway. I live in Vietnam just outside HCMC so I often come in for the weekend. The hotel was OK, but for the price you can find better. There is nothing terribly wrong with the place, but my room did have peeling wallpaper, a hole in the wall, and some broken lights. Also when I checked in the maid and her daughter were watching t.v. in my bed. Having lived here for a while I don't really mind any of these things, but I am also aware you can get slightly better rooms for this price.

Cheap but NOT recommended!
Summarising ‘Nouveau Happy Inn’, Saigon: Expedia or the Hotel made a mistake with our booking as we paid extra to have a window that we did not have. When we told the hotel they told us that it was our responsibility to sort it out with Expedia, nothing else was done by them. The first room we were offered in the 3rd floor you could hear very loud Karaoke going on until over 1:00 am which it did stop just when we complained. We were told the next day that in the second floor next door there is a club. Next day we were offered another room, but just with twin beds (we booked a double bedroom). For several days one of the beds kept missing one of the sheets that we had to keep asking for it and the other with cigarette burns. The third night one of the allegedly changed sheets had blood stains; we had to speak with the owner to have them properly changed given that just the owner and manager speak English and all the other members of the staff did not speak English at all or very, very little. Note that when they do not understand you they will still say 'yes'. The room did not seem to have been cleaned in all the 5 nights we stay in the hotel.
