What $18/Night Gets You in Saigon’s Best Hood | Budget Airbnb Tour

In this travel vlog, I take you on a tour of my budget Airbnb in arguably Saigon’s best neighborhood: Pham Viet Chanh.
I am paying $18/night for this airbnb accommodation, which includes maid service, laundry, motorbike parking, security, and a small gym.
For anyone traveling to Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), or Vietnam in general, and looking for budget friendly hotels or Airbnb, there are tons of options throughout Ho Chi Minh City!
Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoyed this travel vlog.

Thanks for sharing Tyler, hope to see you around town.

[@BigTimeBentley]

Cheers yeah it's always fun to run into subscribers of my channel

[@thekoshertourist]

doesn't look too shabby....those views are a bit sketch though...I was in a place just recently and it was 15MM ($615 USD) for the month + I assume another $40 - 60 for electric (4k vnd/kwh). Was on a relatively quite alley, close to a lot of things in D1. Cleaning & laundry 3x/wk (m, w, f) with good sun, a small balcony.

[@BigTimeBentley]

Was that located in D1?

[@thekoshertourist]

@@BigTimeBentleyyes sir it was in the Da Kao ward

[@ianking9425]

Binh Thanh also has a phenominal morning market...plus the alure of "old Saigon"...recently found a 3 br., 2 bt. 2 story house for $680/month....been searching places to move to Vietnqm in, thqnks in no part to your content...my 3-4 year goals!!! Thanks again for more awesome content Tyler!❤

Cheers I'm glad you're enjoying it

@@BigTimeBentleyI’m going there soon. Do you know if an adapter is needed for the 3 head plug that most American laptops use?

[@888Peetah]

Back in 2018, I paid Airbnb $35/nt at one of those modern apartment buildings (/w pool)next to the river in q4

[@BigTimeBentley]

oh those are nice...my buddy Nico used to live in one of those

[@TramHicks]

Tyler showed this room in Saigon 15 quid a night like that in Exeter West England was 50 quid a night but got less choices than Tyler’s Tyler got a cattle boiling water and a cooker

[@keithhogg1963]

Nice little place. Especially for the price and house cleaning and laundry . So it’s an Airbnb. Do you pay by the month? And how long are you aloud to stay there?

[@BigTimeBentley]

yeah paid for the month so there was a slight discount...I imagine I could stay as long as I wanted

[@keithhogg1963]

@@BigTimeBentley that’s awesome!

[@djsweetdaddy3215]

Not the nicest place I’ve seen, but you can’t beat that price

[@ianking9425]

Nice place Tyler, just one question....haven't seen Frosty for a while....???,

[@BigTimeBentley]

A family friend of Trang's parents adopted Frosty so she is happily living in Phan Rang with a new family...wasn't easy letting her go but unfortunately I couldn't reasonably keep her after I moved out of my old apartment

[@ianking9425]

@@BigTimeBentley Awww...I'm both happy for Frosty, and sad for you, it's great to know that the sweet soul is living the best life, but bitter-sweet for you brother, would absolutely love to see a clog of you traveling back to reunite, if only for a day!❤️ (My daughter Emily was worried about Frosty and wanted me to get her the 411!)

[@BigTimeBentley]

@@ianking9425 yea we’ve got some videos from Frosty’s new owners and she is a happy cat playing with her new cat siblings (they already had two cats)

[@mahlanie]

Would it be cheaper to pay in advance monthly than $18 a day? The price is affordable for Vietnam compared to Motel 6 in California

[@BigTimeBentley]

This is a monthly rate I just divided the total price by the number of days and mentioned the daily rate

[@BeverlySapp]

Nice Airbnb. Will you be living solo?

[@ianking9425]

That would be $85-120/ night in the US, and nowhere near thqt clean...maid service would be another $25-40/ day....laundry service would be $10-15/pound....or basically $2,800-3,500/ month!!! We paid $250/ day for an AirB&B doublewide trailer in Florida....and ut was.nowhere near that clean and modern. $480/month, no G&L bill...sign me up!!!

[@ChrissieSM]

Not bad for $18 per day, but it looks very dark, even with the lights on.

[@BigTimeBentley]

yeah it doesn't really get natural light...that's a drawback

[@Sa7biUK]

Not a bad place mate, but for about the same price I reckon you could get a decent place in district 4 with a balcony and more nicer amenities. Still, thanks for sharing. I was in VN last year and then the year before and now its my plan to move there before EOY 2024 or by mid 2025 at latest and work in IT remotely (as thats my profession, tech support to be precise). Your videos are a great help and more power to you geezer. Lots of respect from London GB

[@BigTimeBentley]

thanks I really appreciate that

[@TheNamDude]

Nice little place for $18 a night.

[@hoobeydoobey1267]

I see they have tp, but with the bun gun, do the locals spray then wipe or spray and pull their drawers up? In the PI, they would dip a can into a bucket of water, pour it down their backside, wipe with their hand, then pour a second can. No paper and no place to wash your hands.

[@ChrissieSM]

Yuk! What country is PI? Philippines? If so, I have seen on YT some of their cheap hotels, they had proper toilets and showers.

[@tianh2002]

Do you have a link or the address for this cheap airbnb. Thanks bro

[@sontruong2301]

😎👍

[@BigTimeBentley]

cheers bro

[@MSWcryptoworker]

How is the internet?

[@steph_raro]

Coolth... ha who knew?!?

[@BigTimeBentley]

I always wondered why there wasn't a word for coolth like there was for warmth...then I googled it and found out it is a word lol

[@steph_raro]

Now to try to use it!

[@user-jshsd2]

That's NOT Saigon's trendiest area; not even close. That area is a slum. Trendiest area and best clubs are found within a few hundred meters from Nguyen Hue. But probably outside of your budget since cocktails average $16 each.

[@leehaseley2164]

Don't you think that your comment is needlessly arrogant and vicious sounding?

[@user-jshsd2]

@@leehaseley2164 Listen up. First I don't need the comment police criticizing my comment. Mind your own business, snowflake. Second, if a person is going to make a video and post it to the world with false claims, I should be applauded for calling the disinfo out. Now F.O.

[@ChrissieSM]

What's wrong with you? No need to be so nasty, go and get ripped off drinking your 16 cocktails.

[@VK-tq4il]

Since you are on a tourist visa basis how do you manage the bank accounts ???
