Khách Sạn Kally — Hotel in Ho Chi Minh City

The Kally Hotel is in district 4, but while only a few minutes and $2 from the tourist laden downtown, this area has the feel of a 'real' neighborhood. There are a lot of small places for eating around as well as a very large local market area only a couple of blocks away which is good for eating and shopping.
