Prior review with 4 women nervous arriving at airport. Picked up by driver, he walked us down the dark alley at night and assisted us with our first road crossing!!! We ate at market on corner every moring, just wonderful. Don't miss it, best local food I have eaten. No chance of getting sick too busy and fresh, wonderful! Go... More

The minute you arrive at Long hostel you know you're in good hands. There's a reason they are #1 on TripAdvisor. First off - don't get confused with the address on TripAdvisor - it's wrong but if they changed it to the correct address they will lose all their reviews. But this is the real one - the website www.longguesthouse.com... More

This is an excellent place to stay. It is in the middle of District 1 so everything is within walking distance. The rooms are basic but spotless. Mrs Long and her family are so very, very helpful in organising tours, taxis, walking maps, etc, and the breakfasts were simple but delicious. The rooms are air conditioned, there's cable TV and...

We don't have enough words to describe how good this guesthouse is. We booked 2 nights and we ended up staying 4. We arrived in Saigon at 9pm after a 12 hour bus journey from Cambodia. Mrs. Long received us with some tea and a couple of bananas, which was really nice. She is a lovely woman, with a permanent... More

We stayed here as Hello Hotel had over booked on our first night. We arrived in late and were greeted by Mrs Long who told us everything we needed to know about the city and gave us a very handy map. We were also given iced tea which was very nice. The rooms were clean and AC cold. Since we... More

We found Long fully booked before arriving in HCMC, then we stayed in other hostel just nearby. After two nights staying in different places, due to some reasons, we had to move out again. We were exhausted about moving again and again. I assumed Long never be available as it's No.1 on tripadvisor. Anyway, when we passed by we walked... More

The initial email including vietnamese instructions on how to tell the taxi driver the location of the guesthouse already impressed me. The Longs treat all their guests like family, patiently explaining the important yet often unmentioned amenities near the guesthouse like minimarts and the bookstore. While basic, the room was clean and lacking in nothing. We even had a different... More

Stayed here from April 17 to 21. I was welcomed warmly by Mrs. Long and was given a map with all the places to see marked and was even told were the good shopping and eating places were. The room was on the 4th floor, no lift but i didn't mind because i just had a pack with me. It... More
