Home Boutique in Da Nang

I found that many of the reviews about this hotel were actually accurate. Before this, I stayed in another hotel that was simpler and cheaper, but it turned out that my previous hotel was better than this supposedly higher-category hotel, Animor. And this is their upgraded “Studio” room. Let me go through the pros and cons.

The pros: the room size and the fact that it is a corner unit with many windows. That’s basically where the positives end.

Now the cons. It is genuinely difficult to sleep here. Starting around 5:00–5:30 in the morning, it becomes extremely noisy and sleeping is impossible because there is a football field nearby, and children start playing at 5:30 — with all the shouting and noise. Naturally, this wakes you up. So if you plan to stay in this hotel and your windows face the road, I would recommend either considering another place or preparing earplugs, especially if you’re sensitive to noise.

The hotel itself is old, even though the design looks relatively modern at first glance. There are many signs of wear in the room: stains, mold, smoke-damaged furniture, burn marks on the furniture. Some lights don’t work. The bathroom is very dim because the light bulb doesn’t fully function. And the cigarette smell is extremely strong. Every day someone smokes — either in a neighboring room or below — and the smell goes straight into my room. Only yesterday I reported this at reception, and they said they would fix it. Today, waking up at 5 a.m. to the kids’ shouting, the room already smelled of cigarettes again. Clearly, guests are not fined for smoking. Honestly, it makes sense, because even in my own room the furniture already has nicotine burn marks. It seems there are no real smoking restrictions here. Anyone sensitive to cigarette smoke or with allergies should consider this a serious warning — this hotel is simply not an option for you.

Another thing to know: right next to the hotel there is what feels like a mini-dump. So if your windows don’t face the noisy “micro-stadium,” then your view is either the dump or another building.

As for the location: the location is decent for those who like to be central — this is almost the center. It’s also close to the sea. You can even partially see the sea from the room. But the other issues overshadow these advantages. The mold, the dirt, the noise — it’s impossible to sleep properly.

My recommendation to the hotel management: carry out a full renovation, eliminate the mold and stains, fix the soundproofing, replace the old smoke-damaged furniture. All of this is fixable, and with these improvements the hotel could become genuinely good.

I originally considered this hotel for a long-term stay, maybe even for a few months. But my six-day trial showed that living here properly is impossible. I will be moving out. I hope this review helps both the hotel management and those considering this hotel as an option.

Truly wonderful hospitality without being intrusive. Lovely in every way.

The place is nice and the personal are kind.
Room and bathroom are clean.
But for the price you can find much better.
I choose the hotel because I had a big discount otherwise I will prefer to stay in place like Nam hotel.
Too expensive for the services and quality.
Swimming pool looks more like an aquarium, small and just in the entrance of the hotel.
The area is quiet during the day but not during the evening.

It's deserve 4 stars but because of the price I chose 3.
