  A new hostel. The dorms are enormous, with lockers under the beds that fit a backpack, power socket and light next to each bed, big mattresses, good hot showers and separate toilets. The WiFi is good, except in the dorm. Free breakfast in the morning. The hostel lacked a little atmosphere but the staff is very friendly and attentive. The lady that works there helped me buy my trainticket and I think she had to go and buy it at a store for me. That is so kind of her. They also help you plan your day and organize trips. The location is excellent; close to the bars and restaurants and a 15 minute walk from the citadel. Tip: have some food at the Hot Tuna restaurant on the corner close to the hostel.

  I arrived in hue after a long bike ride up from Hoi An. We saw the back packers and asked if they had room, the rates here are exceptional ! ($4.50) and for that price I was expecting the dorm to be a little dingy. But nontheless I was pleasantly surprised to find the dorms immaculately clean, and having two private showers in the dorm room and two private toilets, separated from eachother ! (Anyone travelling knows that they usually have showers and toilets practically on top of eachother, so this is a real luxury) the receptionist was so amazing , she gave us great advice and was so warm and friendly. My friend broke his phone and she also organized a place for him to go and fix it the very next day. Couldn’t have asked for better service !

  Myself and a friend stayed here for a few nights before heading further south, the location of the hostel is amazing, it's so close to nice restaurants and bars. The hostel was clean and the staff were lovely and always smiling and willing to help you with anything or even help book trips. We didn't get a chance to have the breakfast but it looked fab! Definitely recommend this hostel if you are wanting something cheap and cheerful in the centre!

  Right in the backpacker district of Hue, near to plenty of bars etc, and a short taxi from the Imperial Enclosure. ||The beds all had a light, power socket and lockable storage. The dorm had great Air Con and nice clean bathrooms. ||The staff were chatty and helpful, breakfast was included and there's a fridge with 10k beers in. ||Only slight criticism was poor wifi but it wasn't an issue for my one night stay.

  I visited this place with my boyfriend twice. And we were not disappointed, at all. ||The hostel keeps their rooms really tidy and bright. The washrooms are pretty clean. Nice service as well.||The location is quite close to local attractions. 5 minute walk to get anything, food, gas station, market, ...||I would highly recommend this place for any kind of trip to Hue city.

  Excellent value for money! The cheapest on our trip so far. Dorm rooms are clean and aircon is always available. Showers and toilets are decent. Great location - next to the tourist area. Extremely friendly staff who helped us book a tour and helped us clean up after we arrived back cold and muddy! They even helped us find a possession we had left with the tour operator by mistake. Quiet which suited us (though this may have been because it’s low season). Overall great hostel!

  Chill vibe. This place is new, beds comfortable. Cold A/C in the room. Doesn't have a bar but doesn't matter, directly across the street from one of the most popular bars in town. Right in the backpacker area. Super affordable. Great staff. Excellent location very close to street food, cafes, and walking distance to the river. 10k very cold beers. Super hot showers. Would definitely recommend.
