- The mattress was only given a plain white sheet. The head of the bed was still exposed and not covered. After lying down for a while, the sheet would sag because it was not big enough to fit under the mattress. There was also no mattress pad. The blanket had no cover.
- The room was cleaned every day without sweeping.
- There were no mosquitoes in the room but there were a lot of black ants, even on the bed when sleeping
- There were absolutely no activities, no bar, no snacks.
- The breakfast was poor. On the first day, there was a large group so there were many dishes (banh bot loc, banh uot, porridge, soup, chicken wings with fish sauce, spring rolls, fried potatoes, fried rice, vermicelli). On the second day, the food was very boring (fried fish balls, fried dumplings, fried chicken filet, fried rice). The dishes were bad and cold because there was no fire to keep them warm.
