Maya Boutique Hotel & Spa

The room and location was central to old quarter sights and food including the night market. Breakfast was good and has the basics for a complete meal.  The only major problem we had was the water issue where there was a problem with water supply the first night we stayed there where there was no water supply around 10pm due to some water pump issue and could not shower or even use the toilet until close to 1pm. There were no alternative solutions provided to us and it was quite stressful. The water problem occurred the morning we checked out after two nights stay as the water pump was not full and had to shower with dripping water instead of proper full jet or water. Plus no hot water and had to wait for 1 hour for decent water supply. Once is bad enough but to have it occurred twice is not acceptable as would expect any decent hotel to have basic water supply.  Would not recommend this hotel on this basis alone. The staff at the counter was extremely helpful to provide advice and suggestions and really very friendly and that is a great plus plus point.

The hotel was great for a few nights, but you certainly can get other hotels in the area for similar money.

The room was smaller than expected but still managed. For some reason, the water pressure drops  at night and the hot water gets really hot.  We got the highest floor which is on the 8th floor. The reception is on the 2nd floor. You will have to carry your luggage up to the 8th floor.  The hotel is right in the heartbeat of Old Quarter. Lots of eateries, restaurants and massage parlours. 450k for an hour massage is on the high side. You can get a Vietnamese Massage for 250k for an hour as you walk away from the hotel. Be adventurous and try the road stalls. They are the best, cheap and amazing taste. Please try their egg coffee. I must warn that they are absolutely addictive.  Hotel staff are phenomenally and wonderfully helpful. Look for Ms. Vy who is just so informative and thorough. This hotel is so convenient that it is just walking distance to all the tourist attractions. No need for any form of transportation unless you wanna try their trishaw rides. It should not cost you more than 50k a person if you’re just heading to specific locations.
