I booked our stay at the Lucky Buddha based purely on the price and location. I didn\'t look at any of the reviews until after we were checked in, which may have been a mistake but I probably would have booked it anyway. We only needed a room for one night and we came to Vietnam for adventure, so why not? Cons first; -only 2 towels for 4 people (towels play a key role in this hotel, see some of the other reviews for context). -no soap in the bathroom, and shampoo that was so old it was thick and black like tar. -no water or drinks in the fridge (not a big deal, we had our own). -the duvets on the beds were comically small, basically a double bed duvet turned sideways to cover just the bottom half of the bed (again, not a big deal, it\'s hot here). -TV not working (I think this is known as a "first world problem", I was actually happy not to have the TV but my kids felt otherwise). Now for the pros; -Enormous room for the price. -AC in the room that worked, takes a while to cool down such a large room though. -Huge beds with memory foam mattress toppers over foam mattresses. I found the bed quite comfortable and slept pretty good. -Nice big bathroom with a huge soaker bathtub! This is very hard to find in Vietnam. We didn\'t use the pool. I saw the water being circulated the following morning so it\'s obviously being maintained, but I didn\'t smell any chlorine. We didn\'t have time anyway, no big loss. The heavy bag and wooden weapons in the lobby were a big question mark too...
