LOCATION
Excellent location.
In the immediate vicinity of the market, and a few blocks' walk from 82nd/84th and 27th Streets, where you'll find street food for dinner.
The OK Express minibus company (for Bagan, among other destinations) is a 5-minute walk away.
Palace and pagodas are easily accessible by bicycle.
SERVICE
Excellent welcome, despite arriving at dawn. Excellent customer service. They provide a lot of advice.
Excellent work by the housekeeping teams in the rooms and the restaurant.
Excellent attention from the night watchmen.
The sign at the entrance sums it all up: "It's not a hotel, it's your home."
ENVIRONMENT
Quiet and safe neighborhood.
A very good quality hotel, well laid out, and very well maintained. Quality furnishings. Spotlessly clean.
ROOM
Standard double room: Sufficient space for one person, perhaps a little small for two.
Bright. Well laid out. Mirror in the bedroom.
Very good quality bedding. Clean, good quality linens. Spacious and clean bathroom. Hot water with good pressure. Good air conditioning. Very good Wi-Fi. Well-placed electrical outlets.
The only thing missing was a dedicated space for luggage.
BREAKFAST
Depending on the number of guests, breakfast is served à la carte or buffet-style.
À la carte: one dish of your choice, one drink of your choice (unlimited tea and coffee), one piece of fruit. For this option, given the abundance of fruit available in Myanmar, I would suggest offering an unlimited fruit salad.
Buffet: Adequately stocked. Hot dishes, fruit, bread, and drinks.
The restaurant is on the rooftop on the 4th floor. Airy and bright, it offers a beautiful view of the city.
