### **Sun Lake Hotel – Affordable Stay in Vung Tau**

#### **Location**
Sun Lake Hotel is conveniently located at 38 Vo Thi Sau, Vung Tau. Key attractions like Christ the King Statue (600m), Nghinh Phong Cape (1.3km), and the Lighthouse are all within close proximity. The surrounding area is quiet, as there aren’t many shops or restaurants nearby.

#### **Pricing**
I booked the hotel through Booking.com, which allowed me to check out detailed photos and reviews of the property.

This time, I chose a 4-person room with a lake view for **approximately $16 per night** (discounted from the Genius membership).

#### **Amenities**

**Pros:**
– The hotel is new and equipped with an elevator.
– The 4-person room is spacious and clean, with simple wooden-themed decor that adds a touch of elegance.
– My favorite feature was the large glass door providing a lake view, making the room feel airy and bright. However, staying on the 2nd floor meant the view wasn’t as spectacular as higher levels.
– Fully equipped with essentials like a mini-fridge, towels, shampoo, and body wash.
– The bed linens were clean, and the mattress was comfortable.
– The bathroom was spotless and had hot water.

**Cons:**
– No hairdryer in the room, but you can borrow one from the front desk.
– The lobby doubles as a parking area, which affects the aesthetics.
– Walking to the beach takes a little longer than expected.

#### **Services**
The reception staff was friendly and accommodating. I arrived earlier than the check-in time but was allowed to check in at no extra cost.

The hotel offers motorbike rentals at **$5 per bike (manual or automatic)**. I recommend choosing a manual bike, as the quality of the automatic ones is subpar, and they consume more fuel.

### **Final Thoughts**
After exploring various hotels in Vung Tau, I find Sun Lake Hotel to be a solid choice for its price and quality. If you’re still looking for alternatives, check out **VeeVoo Hotel** on Phan Van Tri Street.

Pro tip: If you’re visiting Vung Tau and need an easy, hassle-free internet connection, consider using an **eSIM in Vietnam**. You can conveniently purchase one from platforms like **Simtrip.vn**, making your trip more seamless.
