Recommended hostel in Yangon. Good location, staff are nice and very helpful.” Happy stay!!””
Locate at the heart of China Town, exactly same as photos, art painting on the wall are so amazing, very clean room. The staff are polite, helpful and super friendly, they did made our visit in Yangon easier, they try their best to help us traveling in the city like giving advice on our travel itinerary, walking with us to the bus stop, etc. Everything is out of our expectation!!!

Exceptional”
I don't usually recommend a place. The BaobaBed hostel China Town i stayed at is pretty new and very clean. The building is an antique which is amazing. They did i a good job renovate it yet also reserve all the wood doors and ceiling original. Have a very cozy common area, coffee and bar area. The staff is friendly, I really enjoyed staying there. if i go back to Myanmar again, i already know where I will be staying! The location is perfect! The most famous 19th street BBQ n beer area is one block up. Close enough to walk around the city and see most of the attractions without getting public transport. The free basic breakfast, coffee, tea & free Myanmar Longyi rental are amazing!! I would strongly recommend this place to anyone who is coming to Yangon. It's affordable, clean and has almost everything one's need. Happy & Safe Travel!

Friendly and helpful staff who can speak English very well and give us directions for area nearby. Nice cafe on the ground floor to chill out and relax a bit. Clean, nice, cool and with free coffee and tea throughout the day. Security is excellent as they have security code to access the dorm room floors, very clean rooms , bathrooms , speedy wifi connection, great AC , lockers available and privacy with the curtains on each bed! Everyone at BaobaBed welcomed us with a big smile, not just on our arrival but every time we met! The staff were so helpful and really made our stay comfortable . I'll stay here when I'm back in Yangon

Very much valued hostel in town”
In many ways, very much valued hotel it was. - cheap price but not cheap quality - clean bed and sheet - enough and safe space for storage - good breakfast - helpful workers - close to busy downtown for night drinks. Can be better - if can provide the details of bus route town for yangon tour itself ( can compensate the a little distance from the center of city, but not means that far still in walking distance, found it will be much easier and comfortable to enjoy yangon with local bus). Overall pretty much enjoyed staying here.
Greetings, Thank you so much for staying with us and giving us kind review. We are glad to know that you enjoyed our services and facilities. Next time, if you visit to us again, we will surely give you the bus route. We wish you to have safe and wonderful trips ahead. BaobaBed Hostel Group

We had a wonderful stay at Baobabed hostel in the double private mezzanine room. Note this room is not complete private in terms of sounds as it is a mezzanine: completely separated from view but not from sound which is the only down point. The room and communal showers are clean and the water warm. The staff are lovely and everyone is eager to help. The breakfast is delicious with eggs and different samosas everyday. The coffee is excellent.
Hi Lilly-Morgane. Thank you for staying with BoabaBed hostel. We love to hear your feedbacks a about our awesome staffs, breakfast and coffee. Currently, we are in the process of reduceing level of noises on all of our rooms. We thank you for your patience during your stay. We are looking forward to seeing you again soon.Happy and safe travel ahead. BaobaBed hostel management group.
Can't ask for more”
Baobabed is doing a tremendous job. Everything is spotless, the beds are great with excellent privacy setup, the staff goes out of their way to acommodate any request. If I would have one itch it would be that the room was a bit permeable to the noise from downstairs. Would stay again in an heartbeat. So much so that I write this review in Baobabed Bagan.

Repeated customer ”
I started and ended my Myanmar trip in Yangon. After the great experience at baobabed on first two nights, I booked it for my last night stay immediately. Need to say more?

Amazing place!! Extremely good value . ”
Beautiful 4 bed lady dorm!!! BaobaBed is amazing!! My second time staying here in the 4 Bed Lady dorm. It's very clean and smell very good. There's a window and the view from the window is very beautiful old buildings. It's located in Chinatown and have plenty of cheap and traditional food only block away and also famous BBQ and Beer street. Most the attraction spots like colonial buildings district, Sule Pagoda, Shwedagon Pagoda, Scott Market and Circular train station is within 10-20 walks. Free breakfast & all day free flow of coffee, tea and Myanmar Cigar is a BIG PLUS. I mean nothing to say and add especially Staff, Bathroom, lobby and oh they also have a coffee shop and bar with reasonable price and serve traditional food everyday for free! Don't have free water at the lobby but if you ask for it they can get you treated water into your bottle. 100% recommend to everyone. Cheers, Melissa

Probably 1 of the nicest Hostels I encountered!”
This Hostel chain is an extraordinary one. It has outlets all over major tourism cities/spots in Myanmar, i.e. Yangon, Bagan, Mandalay, Nyaung Shwe. So if you started your trip in Myanmar with them, with that wristband you could get 10% discount on your following stays! But that requires you to book with them instead of Agoda.. The staff in the hostel are very friendly, and even ready to help you to plan for your trip, if you are quite clueless on your trip, which is a great help~
Best hostel in Yangon!”
This place has the friendliest staff I've encountered! I love that they try to talk to you while you are having breakfast and asks you where you go and give suggestions. They are also very helpful with your other bookings (esp. bus). They have a resto also that serves good food if you are hungry after your trip. Likewise, they have free traditional snacks as well every 4pm if my memory serves me right. Location wise, it's near Sule Pagoda and their street food night market too. It's not that far from colonial buildings and Ragoon Tea House. The rooms are clean and spacious for a dorm which I absolutely like. Their beds doesn't creak that much as well and that's a plus! Will definitely book again should I come back to Yangon. I did have a great time here.
Dear Jennifer, We are very grateful to you for staying with us and making a surprise to us by your 10 point of review on our service and property. We appreciate your kind comments. Hoping to see you again and wish you have a great travel. Thanks. Best wishes, BaobaBed Hostel Team

The best hostel in Yangon!”
I stayed in Yangon for 2nights. Unfortunately, I booked in BaoBa Bed just for a night. They were already fully for my next day. Great staff! Nice place! - noisy keys ( better have plastic or wooden keyholder - not asiqn friendly heater. It was too high for a short pinay like me.

Amazing hostel, great vibe!”
(+) Positives - Great location, on the quieter side of 19th street you're literally 500m away from BBQ street and there's lots of places to eat nearby - Really great size room - Free breakfast - They have an really relaxed common area with bean bags that you can chill out on all day, lots of board games and books to read too. t - WiFi was excellent - They have "happy hour" everyday where you get to try a Myanmar dish for free, we had the tea leaf salad and shan noodles - absolutely delicious - The staff were super friendly and really helpful - The hostel is brand new so everything is in perfect condition - The bathroom is super clean (-) Negatives - Double Rooms are on the 3rd floor (not really a big deal but alot of stairs to climb) - Water in the shower wasn't Bathroom - Staff did not speak much english at all, so was hard to communicate

THE ONLY HOSTEL TO BE IN YANGON!”
The staff are really friendly and very helpful. I can't even stress that out. Some of them actually talk to you, ask your plans etc. and I find it a good point since I also want to talk to people. They have a resto where you can order food (that's also great by the way). The breakfast they serve is really good, the place is also near almost everything around Yangon. Rooms are clean and surprisingly spacious. If I were to come back, I would still book here. I did enjoy my time in this hostel.
