Overall pretty comfy journey. Only issues were on the top bunk near the back it felt pretty bumpy and unstable (you get used to to it after a few hours) and the aircon wouldn’t switch off so it gave me a nasty cold/cough. It also was like an hour late but I wasn’t too bothered. Plenty of stops for food

I love traveling by night train, but this time it was a mix of unfortunate events. They charged me for my breakfast and the next day they didn't deliver it to me, saying I was sleeping (breakfast was at 7 and I was up at 5.30 to see the sunrise), no one informed me and I had to chase the train staff with Google translate. They didn't have what I ordered and I had to accept something different. In my same cabin there was a man with his disabled kid who hit me with his father cell phone when the man was not in the cabin. Both were coughing and sneezing and I didn't feel comfortable and I asked to change cabin, but again nothing was done. The train left HCMC on time and arrived in Da Nang 15 mins late, no big deal.

Was actually a good trip. Left about 5:30pm from Ho Chi Minh arrived in Da nang about lunchtime. Bus was clean and as described, we booked the VIP Cabin(had our own cabin seat). Seats are comfortable even for a long trip, I’m 6,2ft and couldnt quite straighten my legs but wasnt too bad. We did arrive at the pick up location which is a little office and waiting area, then transported by van to the bus about 30mins away. Once the bus left we had 2 stops, one just outside of Ho Chi Minh which had a little restaurant and again in the morning at another little restaurant. Nobody speaks english so just read the ques and figure it out. We had to go and ask for noodles or would have missed out. Come prepared with your own food and a few drinks, one bottle of water provided. The negatives would be as the other reviews stated, driving is typical. The music onboard was annoying, turned off for the sleeping part but on for long periods, bring earphones, a couple we meet brought a twin ticket which is just sharing a cabin. Some cargo was loaded inside. Overall I would do it again, just make sure you’re getting the Cabins for a long trip like this and come prepared

Experience was good, the train was much older and dirtier than pictured, beds were uncomfortable and narrow but it was good to Experience and got us where we needed to go for an affordable price.

The cabin was tidy, it departed and arrived ahead of time. Given the cost (same as of a low cost airline), they can improve on the linen by having then washed properly and also need to regulate the A/c… it was too cold. Finally, their employee was smoking throughout the ride.
