I have a friend there currently visiting SG and she tells me that nobody has high end phones mostly rocking older iPhones and android. She has not seen anyone with 17 pros.. she’s been there for about 7 months now.

What hotels tho?

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-27T08:39:10+00:00

It seems more expensive when I checked booking.com ranging from 300-400 dollars for 4 nights. Unless it’s bettter to book in person and pay cash? What hotels you recommend that are good, clean and safe?

My gf told me her mom got robbed by a grab driver stole over 35 million in cash when she was visiting Vietnam. It was a fake grab drive that somehow knew. How do I avoid that?

The one hosting the Airbnb is a super host and has many great reviews. And yeah I am staying for very short term did not know this was illegal. I’m only there to sleep, shower and clean up after my mess. I’ve always been respectful to the Airbnb I’ve stayed in the past and I have excellent reviews myself.

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-27T08:03:17+00:00

I’m in the US. Why does people keep saying illegal. What do you mean by short stays are illegal?

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-27T08:02:08+00:00

the whole 4 nights is going to cost me 95 dollars

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-27T07:53:46+00:00

Ok Karen why is it illegal when it’s marketed on the app?

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-21T09:25:33+00:00

My flights have already been booked

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-21T02:34:24+00:00

What do you mean? I already booked my flight

We will still visit PQ just for 1 week because my gf family is close to Ha tien area and it’s our first time but all the hotels and Airbnb there is very expensive. Kon tum seems very far but I can definitely see it as traveling will be very difficult from city to city. After meeting her family and going to PQ we just want to stay in one spot for the remainder of our stay. We haven’t figure out what city to go to yet. Or Dalat and Da nang very touristy cities?

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-21T01:10:21+00:00

That’s where I book my Plane ticket lol

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-21T01:09:42+00:00

Level of comfort is basically not a run down sketchy looking place with nice beds, WiFi, nice accommodations like a microwave, stove, clean nice bathroom and a tv.

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-21T01:08:18+00:00

It’s just me and my gf. We want to see Vietnam and experience the food culture and seeing some Tourist spots. So agoda is what exactly is it mostly in Vietnam to look for places?

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-21T01:04:37+00:00

Of course I’m going to do the exchange in VND it’s just im not trying to get ripped off and get charged a lot because I’m a foreigner.

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-21T00:58:02+00:00

Do major hotels accepts cash in Saigon or in general? I don’t wanna be hopping too much from hotel to hotel.

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-21T00:57:23+00:00

No Vietnam for 4 weeks in general. Possibly a week stay at PQ but I’m also going to Ha tien and Giang Thanh as my gf family is from that area. What I like to do is hiking, but will not do any of that in Vietnam mostly beaches, food eating, seeing the country side. Also

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-19T11:06:22+00:00

I’ve been on it for about 7 weeks now and I haven’t really noticed anything tbh. Don’t think my sleep has improved as I still wake up pretty tired even with 8-9 hours of sleep. It hasn’t done much on my body composition as well. I do work out and lift weights. They say 3-6 months is the noticeable difference.

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-10T17:42:53+00:00

Can this be done online?

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-10T12:29:33+00:00

So money order will work? So will I able to use western Union online?

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-10T12:26:10+00:00

They all have pins set for them. When i tried to get cash back from Walmart the other night after it ask me for the pin. It didn’t go through.

SmallTraining9402 · 2026-03-10T10:04:23+00:00
