Smiley Apartment 3 is an apartment in District 1 of Ho Chi Minh City, with five air-conditioned units from 15 to 38 m², each with a kitchen and free WiFi in the rooms. It suits travellers who prefer to self-cater and want more space than a standard hotel room, from a studio with a sofa bed to a one-bedroom apartment with a king-size bed.

Two layouts have a balcony, and the Apartment with Balcony is the only unit that sleeps three, with a single bed, a king-size bed, a separate living room and a dining area. Four of the five units have a private bathroom, while the smallest, the Apartment With Shared Bathroom, shares its bathroom.

All five units are air-conditioned and have a kitchen area, a TV and free toiletries, with private bathrooms in four of them. Sizes range from 15 m² in the Apartment With Shared Bathroom to 38 m² in the One-Bedroom Apartment and the Apartment with Balcony, so the range covers solo travellers, couples and small groups. The Studio with Sofa Bed sits at 20 m² between them.

The beds vary by unit. The One-Bedroom Apartment and the Apartment With Shared Bathroom have a king-size bed, the Standard Apartment a double bed, the Apartment with Balcony a single bed and a king-size bed, and the Studio with Sofa Bed a double bed and a sofa bed.
