Home Away Do Quang Dau- Homestay, City Center, D1 is a homestay in District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, 5.3 km from Tan Son Nhat International Airport, with rooms from 16 m² to 32 m² and three room types that have a balcony over the city. The property suits travellers who want to walk to the bars and restaurants of Pham Ngu Lao and to the city's central museums and markets, and who want air-conditioned rooms with private bathrooms.
The range runs from a 16 m² Queen Room, with a large king bed, to a 32 m² apartment with a separate bedroom, a living room with a sofa bed and a kitchen. The 30 m² rooms with balconies sit in between, and the shared areas include a terrace with outdoor furniture and an airport shuttle.
Bicycle rental and bike tours are offered for exploring the district, and check-in runs until midnight, which suits late arrivals. Laundry and ironing services are also available.
The five room types share the same basics: a private bathroom, air conditioning and a minibar in every room. What sets them apart is size and layout. Three rooms have a balcony, and four look out over the city. The 30 m² rooms and the 32 m² apartment offer more floor space than the two 16 m² rooms.
The Apartment with Balcony, at 32 m², is the most complete option, with a separate bedroom, a living room with a sofa bed and a kitchen. The two 30 m² rooms both have a balcony, but the Queen Room with Balcony adds a single bed to its king bed, while the Deluxe Double Room with Balcony has a kitchen and a sofa bed. The Queen Room and the Deluxe Queen Room are both 16 m², but only the second has a city view.
At 30 m², this room pairs a large king bed with a single bed and opens onto a balcony with city views. The private bathroom has a shower, and it is the choice for a balcony and a second bed without a kitchen.
