With designs are the same the tiger-cages-shaped and capsule hotels in Vietnam but the room of pipes-shaped hostel is designed diffirent from them. If the room of other hostels are designed in dorminity style that the clients stay all together, but at the pipes-shaped hostel you will offer a private room (although the room size is small), you cannot see each other.
Although, supported to budget travelers and location is in the heart of the city but their clients still don’t suffer from the narrow space without sunlight, they still get the benefits from hillup location such as an open-space, fresh air, a big yard and a good view. Just open the door, you can admire frog in the early morning or sunset in every afternoon or quiet air of peace town.
