"This hotel is conveniently located close to both the train station and the city center. Everything you need for your travels is within walking distance. While the old town can be noisy with all the small shops, narrow streets, and constant flow of motorbikes, it offers a vibrant streetscape and a glimpse into local life.
The room lived up to the promotional pictures – it felt lively and had character. The bed was just right in terms of firmness, ensuring a good night's sleep. It was very clean, with a separate wet and dry area in the bathroom, and the air conditioning was strong, compensating for any heat transfer through the outer window (though do remember to draw the blackout blinds!). There's a hot spring terrace on the same floor as the room, which was comfortable except for some noise during morning cleaning.
The breakfast restaurant is on the 10th floor, connecting two buildings. It's compact, and you can enjoy city views through the window while you eat. The dishes are exquisite; the pho was good, and the fruit was very fresh.
I want to give special praise to the service. Whether at the front desk or in the restaurant, I received warm care and prompt responses. They were very proactive in offering help and also actively sought feedback. For practicing listening and speaking skills, it's an excellent choice. Before departure, the front desk staff thoughtfully escorted me to my ride-sharing car, helped with my luggage, and even opened and closed the car door for me. Their politeness and attentiveness were truly heartwarming.
Just like its name, Aurora, you don't need to chase it; it's that brilliant spectacle that surrounds and captivates you."
