Wrong room size! ”

I had been in Myanmar for more than a month already and I decided to try another hotel which is cheaper, but has good reviews. I booked a standard room which says it is 20 sq. meter. I was very disappointed. It was only about 12 sq. m. So I a upgraded to superior room which is supposed to be 30sq. m. I was again disappointed because it was only abou 15sq.m. I needed a spacious room because I continue my work in my hotel and I need space to move about when I grow restless. I was thinking of extending my stay for another week, but I didn't anymore. For 1-3 days stay, itvwould have been ok. The staff are friendly and polite. Very limited selection of food, however.

I have never come to a hotel with such a serious cockroach infestation! There were easily 20 cockroaches big or small in the room! They were hiding around and every now and then, one will pop up! OMG, I never wanted to be so negative in my comments, but this is the worst cockroach infested hotel that I have experienced!

Located next to the Baho Street, in an easy to understand location. ”

However, since the train track is not maintained, it is difficult to cross the railroad crossing by car. I was surprised that there was no window glass in the window frame of the reception, but after 3 nights glass was already in frame. The exterior of the hotel will be complete this month. Because of the new hotel, the bed was new and comfortable. Best if it is a little cheaper. There is a large Chinese KTV opposite the hotel, and there are concerns that many Chinese will stay in the future. But I will use this hotel again.
