The hotel has some great points like a central location and a clean, comfortable environment. However, I found the service lacking due to language barriers and staff responsiveness. The dining options for breakfast were a bit restricted, which made it challenging to choose ahead of time. Overall, it's decent value for money but there's room for improvement.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel with spacious rooms on the 7th floor, although the design felt quite traditional. The location was central and convenient for exploring Yangon, but the area around the hotel didn't look great. The staff was mostly friendly and helpful, but there were moments when they seemed a bit untrained. Overall, it offered good value for money, especially in a city where hotels are often overpriced.

The hotel has a decent location, though the immediate area isn't very appealing. The rooms are small but clean, and the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. However, the dining area could use some improvement, and the room design doesn't quite match the online photos. Overall, it's a reasonable choice for the price, but it's not without its flaws.

I had a decent stay at this hotel. The location is quite convenient, making it easy to explore nearby attractions, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my visit. However, I found the rooms to be quite small and lacking windows which made it feel a bit cramped, and dining options, although tasty, had limited choices for breakfast. Overall, it offers good value for money, but there are definitely areas for improvement.

The hotel has a great central location that's close to important sights like Scott's Market and Sule Pagoda. The rooms are clean and provide everything you need, though they aren't particularly spacious. The service staff are friendly, but they don't handle ticket bookings or tours. Dining options are decent but could be better for Western cuisine. Overall, it's a solid choice for the price, but the atmosphere in the area might not appeal to everyone.
