Ho Chi Minh City rental accommodation...

I think your school may help out this.
1 month accommodation may be difficult in apartments. If someone willing to share, there is a chance!

Hi - I've been VN for several years (actually back and forth between here and the States).  I just finished a similar effort in finding a service apt in District 1.  I'd be happy to share my 'research' with you.  There are a lot of good choices, just depends on your priorities.  You can feel free to message me back through this service (at least I think you can?) or call me in HCMC at 01254785785.  Dale.

P.S. I'm not a broker trying to sell you anything

Hi Dale. That would be great. Not sure if you can message on this and as I'm in Europe so calling HMC might get a bit expensive. Do you have an email I could reply to? Or you could email me on mephi716@gmail.com. Any insights you have would be much appreciated. Thanks. Andy

Hi,
With tourists who posses below 3-month visa, i am afraid it is not legally to rent an apartment in Vietnam.
Besides, Vietnamese house owners may give no chance for the short-term (below 6 months) rental contract.
You should contact some friends or acquaintances here to share a room or may contact some real-estate agents to get some details of serviced apartments.
Enjoy your stay in Vietnam, then.

I was attempting a similar arrangement for a month through Tet, finally settled on a hotel through Agoda.com, a London based company who seems to have very reasonable rates on many hotels in Saigon, especially District 1.

You may give them a try, good luck!

You are running into the warm month with out the rain so I would try to get something before arriving.

Hello there,
I could give you a help with the insight of a local in District 1. I know all of the serviced apartments in District 1 and District 2 (but probably you don't need to know about District 2, because your school is in District 1).
I'm happy to tell you what I know about the surrounding to help you have an idea of the general living in District 1. It's one of my ways to improve my English and having new foreign friend.
So, feel free to contact me if you need my assistance. Some email exchange may help us to figure out what we need to do. Khoi.phamx@gmail.com
Good luck,
Khoi.
