Don't be fooled by the photos displayed! The hotel is not a corner hotel but it is one of those small terraced buildings wedged in between other small shops. That photo should be taken down for fraudulent representation. I booked a double room for 2 nights, stayed in 602 then 202 the next day. The rooms are not spacious at all like in the photos.
On my 2nd night, I returned late to my windowless room and found out the aircon was not working and they told me they had no other rooms as they were full. So are they trying to tell me to continue paying the full price and stay on despite the situation? I told them I could not sleep but they kept insisting they could not do anything about it because they claimed they would not know the aircon was broken until a customer complaints. WHAT? That is the worst excuse you can give to a customer when you are OPERATING A HOTEL, not some cheap backstreet alley. The onus is on the hotel to ensure all facilities are working properly before a customer complaints. If any feature in the room is not working as expected, do not sell the room! They offered portable fans but I paid for an aircon room and fans were no use as it was a windowless room. The hotel receptionist knew I was in a tight spot as it was already 1am at night. I sensed a lack of willingness by the hotel to improve my experience. They could have offered a refund, book a room at another hotel(which is what I requested because I just wanted to sleep), whatever compensation instead of pleading that there was "nothing they could do". The receptionist finally made arrangements for me to have a room at their sister hotel called Scat, a few streets away. It is operated by the same lacklustre owner who doesn't seem to be bothered about the horrible conditions of these 'hotels'. It felt like these hotels were maintained by dirty, village-style, unhygienic individuals who could not be bothered by what a customer experiences.
C Central hotel is also situated right opposite the loudest club around called GO2 at Bui Vien walking street(they blast loud and lewd music onto the streets), facing a notoriously busy cross junction filled with 'creatures of the night', honking scooters, taxis, etc. Definitely not family friendly.
The hotel is tacky at best, severely outdated with different colour bulbs in the room, lifts are dirty/grimy, some facilities in the room are not working(i.e. safety box), towels are old & crusty, terribly maintained establishment. It felt as if the owners are just sitting idly collecting money and not concerned at all that the hotel is rotting away. I will not come back here to stay even if I was paid to do so. But hey, you can experience it for yourself if you want to!
The attached photo is what you would see the moment you step out of the hotel. Club GO2 is opposite. If you are 'lucky' enough to be allocated a room facing the club, you're guaranteed to wake up deaf. If you are a husband with a nagging wife, GO FOR IT!
