Arriving in HCMC this week and want to stay in the city for a few days - week. I would like a room with a window and fairly secure. Maybe a balcony.

Anyway price range prob around $15 - $30 per night.

I have been on Agoda but too much choice!

PS: I'm not being lazy, but I want to hear from folk who can actually vouch for a place.

Thanks!
