Melow Riverview Apartment — Hotel in Ho Chi Minh City

Threat and Intimidation tactics by Melow to tenants:

Please avoid the apartment. The owner inflated my electricity bill to nearly 3x the fair market price (I didn't notice it in the contract, it was my fault), and service / support is extremely poor. For 10 days stay, my electricity bill came in at 1.6 Mn vnd

The maid doesn't clean the dishes, and the room cleaning quality is also poor despite repeated complaints. I am stuck on a lease, so cannot do anything. Will definitely avoid in the future

Edit: The apartment manager threatened to call the police when I posted the review, unless I take it down. Shared screenshots so that other people are warned of the tactics employeed by...

The hotel in their advertising have used fake picture of the building No hot water for shower on cloudy days as they use Solar heating system The mattress is very soft that after nights has damaged my lower back and could not walk Worst location of any hotel in this city as it is located at the end of a road always full of mud road construction and heavy equipments and often closed after 11 pm, one evening it rained heavily that delivery of anything was not possible The staff were friendly and helpful, however I don’t think I could stay again at this hotel for all the...

The main photos are not of the accommodation itself but of the surrounding buildings. There are only a few actual room photos, and the rest are pictures of unrelated places. It feels almost like a scam.

I have been staying here long-term, and there are rats living inside the property. Every night I wake up 3–4 times to the sound of them running across the ceiling. You can clearly hear them moving around the bedroom and living room, even to the point where you can tell if they’re fighting or which direction they’re going.

Since moving in, I haven’t had a single night of proper sleep. As accommodation, this place is absolutely the worst.

Calling this a “3-star hotel” is completely unacceptable. The gap between the advertised photos and the actual environment is enormous, and my stay here has been extremely uncomfortable.

Unless you want to experience “living with rats,” I would never recommend this place.

메인 사진은 숙소가 아닌 주변 건물 사진입니다. 실제 객실 사진은 몇 장 밖에 없고, 전부 다른 건물들 사진 뿐입니다. 거의 사기 수준이네요. 장기 투숙 중인데 숙소 내부에 쥐가 살고 있어 밤마다 천장에서 뛰어다니는 소리에 3~4번씩 깨게 됩니다. 침실과 거실까지 쥐가 돌아다니는 소리가 그대로 들립니다. 쥐 발소리로 쥐가 어디서 어디로 이동하는지, 쥐가 싸우고 있는 중인지 다 파악할 수 있을 정도입니다. 이곳에 온 이후 숙면을 취한 적이 없으며, 숙박 환경으로서는 최악입니다.

이 숙소가 ‘3성급’이라는 설명은 전혀 납득할 수 없습니다. 숙소 사진과 실제 환경의 괴리가 너무 크고, 거주 경험은 정말 심각하게 불편했습니다. ‘쥐와 함께 사는 체험’을 하고 싶은 분이 아니라면...
