Gatsby Hanoi Hotel & Travel Reviews

I still don't understand why you can't give 0 stars. Objectively speaking, this hotel definitely doesn't deserve more. First of all, I would say that the photos provided by the hotel are definitely not up to date, and were also only taken from (logically) the best angle. On arrival and otherwise, the 2 members of staff we met were actually very nice, but it quickly became clear that one of them was criticizing our upcoming travel plans at EVERY opportunity and kept trying to show us his offers, which were much better. After the 4th time, it became tedious. In front of room 601, we noticed a large garbage bag in the hallway, which remained there until the end of our stay. We overlooked the cable chaos in the hallway. However, when there was a large bag of cables lying behind the door in the room, we did find it strange. I'll keep the defects in the room brief and refer to the photos: -Everything in the room was extremely worn and old -Walls worn -Inventory in the room dirty and dusty -Bed as hard as a rock, but maybe that's normal here -Curtain rod only loosely attached -The shower door/curtain was missing in the bathroom, so you showered in the whole bathroom -No sign of the hotel's own "hotel standards" such as cotton buds, sewing kit, soap, small towels, etc. -The bathroom was generally very dirty and simply not maintained -There was also no fruit, instant coffee or tea (which nobody expects, but then they don't show it in every photo), which makes it questionable why you need the kettle. -The safe is completely useless as it is not fixed anywhere, so if someone actually wants to break in, they just take the whole safe with them -It looks like no one has looked in the cupboard for ages, given the layer of dust IN the cupboard -Forgotten flip-flops and cigarette butts on the really nice balcony On top of all these points, you could hear every word from the private apartment next door, as if you were there in person. All in all, we were glad that we only stayed for 2 nights, it was probably enough for our purposes of sleeping in the hotel, but I don't want to imagine how the nice older couple in the next room felt. The only plus point here is the SUPER central location, the new refrigerator (which will certainly adjust to the rest of the condition in less time) and the fairly new air conditioning. Conclusion: Hands off!!! The advertising here uses outdated pictures, the hotel is not recommended!!!
