    “Overall good, the staff service is good.”

    I stayed here for 2 nights and the staff were very helpful. They could recommend anything I had questions about or needed. There is a service to store bags before and after check-in. On the first day of my stay, I found the water pressure to be very low, so the next morning I informed the staff and the hotel sent someone to fix it while I was out sightseeing. The breakfast was delicious. The location is good, with a convenience store opposite and not far from the shopping area. The room has drinking water, cups, and coffee. The bathroom amenities include soap, shampoo, a toothbrush, toothpaste, a hairdryer, and towels (but there isn't a small towel for drying hair). Overall, it is considered suitable and worth the price I paid.

    “Hotels with good service in Yangon have decreased now.”

    Check-in was smooth. The staff were very kind and friendly. The room I stayed in was on the 7th floor, not particularly spacious and the view from the window wasn't anything special, but it was clean, without strange smells, and had most of the necessary amenities. The air conditioning worked well and it was comfortable. While most hotels have the shower, toilet, and sink combined, this one had the shower and toilet separated from the sink, so there was no inconvenience of not being able to use the sink while someone was in the shower or toilet. The Wi-Fi also had good connectivity, and the TV was equipped for YouTube, Netflix, and Google, which was convenient. The riverside night view from the rooftop bar was beautiful. Breakfast was served buffet-style, and while there weren't a large number of dishes, it was very tasty. The rooftop bar is available, and during the dry season, breakfast can be enjoyed in the pleasant morning breeze. Although it's on the west side of downtown, there was no inconvenience in reaching anywhere. There is a convenience store right in front of the hotel that is open during accessible hours, which is very convenient. Check-out was also smooth. In light of the situation in Myanmar where the number of hotels with poor service is increasing, I found this place to be a very conscientious hotel. I believe it is a hotel I can recommend.

    “Although the sparrow is small, it has all the vital organs.”

    Before departing, I was deeply attracted to the photo of this hotel’s rooftop at first sight while arranging accommodations. After several comparisons, I finally chose this place and stayed for four days. On the first day entering this street, I was indeed a bit shocked—the narrow alleys did not resemble the typical "hotel street" in most people's impressions. However, after staying for two days, I gradually understood that this area around Chinatown is mostly like this. In fact, it is a quite safe area with convenient transportation, dining, and shopping. Regarding the hotel itself, the overall evaluation is as many guests have said: although small, it has everything. While it is a small hotel, it is well-equipped and well-maintained, making it top-notch among hotels of the same class. Moreover, the service attitude of all the staff is particularly noteworthy—polite, friendly, and attentive, making one feel at home. Especially Patrick, the manager of the rooftop restaurant, takes care of every guest with meticulous attention and maintains a warm and friendly smile, leaving a deep impression. Additionally, the massage service on the first floor is also very worth trying, as it effectively alleviates a day's fatigue. A male staff member’s technique was just right and even noticeably relieved my knee discomfort, which I had been experiencing for several weeks—it was truly remarkable. If there is one small flaw, it is that the water pressure in the room is slightly low, but it does not affect the overall accommodation experience. If I have the opportunity to bring a group here in the future, I will definitely arrange for them to stay here. Furthermore, every evening around six o'clock, you can enjoy a short yet unforgettable sunset view from the rooftop—a red ball of fire resembling an egg yolk quickly sinks into the sea of clouds in just two minutes, breathtakingly beautiful. For the above reasons, I extended my stay by three more days.

    “The hospitality of the staff is high.”

    They welcomed me back with warm smiles no matter when I returned. The facilities are well maintained, and I think it's the best in this price range. It's located at the edge of Chinatown, but there are plenty of dining and massage options nearby. The only downside was that the quality of the shampoo and shower gel wasn't great, but I think that's common in this price range. For those who are concerned, I recommend bringing your own.

    “Overall, it is a good hotel.”

    The location is a bit far from the downtown center, but Chinatown is very close by, and there are night markets, morning markets, restaurants, medium-sized supermarkets, and massage shops nearby, making it convenient. The hotel exterior looks a bit old, but the rooms, while not as good as a 4- or 5-star hotel, are quite clean for a 3-star class and had no problems at all. The staff is friendly, and with prices around 3,500 yen per night, I stayed there in 2024 and 2025. I recommend it.
