Very disappointing stay at Tung Quang Hotel in Cat Ba.
There was no hot water during our stay. We booked and paid for a room with breakfast included, and we have the reservation confirmation proving this, yet upon arrival we were informed that the hotel does not serve breakfast at this time of year.
The staff were extremely rude and appeared to treat local guests much better than foreign visitors. We even noticed that the fan in the waiting area was turned off when local guests left.
The room was poorly equipped: no kettle, no instant coffee, barely any toilet paper, no hand towels, and no blanket in the wardrobe. The shower gel and shampoo were not properly labelled and were only identified in Vietnamese. The air conditioning was faulty, either blowing very cold air or not working at all regardless of the selected temperature.
We were given only one room key card for two people, and the card was already damaged. Bath towels were not properly replaced during housekeeping, with only one towel being changed for no apparent reason.
Overall, a very poor experience and certainly not good value for money.
