The story begins in 2017.
We find it quite difficult to get a good budget accommodation in Vietnam during our past visits.
Most of the time we probably get a small and old fashioned room with minimal facilities yet poor service.
All these unpleasant experiences led us to start our journey in the hospitality industry.
In the beginning, there were only 3 of us and we had to standby 24/7.
From customer service to housekeeping work.
From manual process to the discovery of PMS.
From zero talent to putting in a lot of hard work.
Chill Box, a 7 rooms homestay in the alley of Ho Chi Minh City, officially started business in April 2017.
We achieved 99.7% occupancy in the first month of opening.
After 3 months, we opened the 2nd homestay with 6 rooms.
Another 2 months later, followed by the 3rd and 4th homestays.
Total 38 rooms and 17 employees.

We have no choice but to permanently close down the homestays and some hotels.
