We arrived in Vietnam around 2 PM after a really smooth flight from China no delays, and everything went to plan. Customs was quick and hassle free too, which made for a nice change after some of the queues we’ve faced on this trip!
We made our way to the apartment, which is on the 35th floor of a sleek, modern block with absolutely stunning views across the city easily one of the best we’ve had so far. The building has everything you could need: a cinema, supermarket, shopping centre, and (to Ali’s absolute delight) a Starbucks for those all-important hot chocolates.
The only hiccup? Check-in was honestly the worst we’ve experienced so far. The guy handling it was pretty useless slow, disorganised, and not much help at all. After such a smooth arrival, it was a bit of a letdown and dragged on way longer than it should have.
Once we finally got in, we unpacked, grabbed some shopping, had dinner, and settled in for the night. After a quick wash up, we all crashed out, excited to start exploring properly tomorrow.
