I had a lovely stay at this hotel! The location was particularly convenient for accessing the ferry, and the staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. On the downside, the dining options could use a bit more variety and the rooms, while clean and comfortable, felt a bit outdated. Overall, it was a decent experience for the price.

My stay at this hotel was quite interesting. The rooms were large and comfortable, with great air conditioning and hot water, although the early morning chanting was a bit disruptive. The staff were brilliant and eager to help with everything, making the overall experience enjoyable. The location, while close to the Mingun ferry, had its downsides with mosquitoes around the rooftop area. Overall, it's good value for money but could improve on noise control.

The hotel offers a spacious room with a nice river view, and the staff is sweet and attentive, especially with our infant. But the location is quite far from the center and the dining options leave a lot to be desired. Overall, while it's a comfortable place to stay, the remote location might be a drawback for some travelers.

I had a pretty good stay overall, with friendly staff and a stunning view from the rooftop restaurant. The location was convenient for exploring real life in Myanmar, but the rooms had some issues, like a toilet that didn’t flush well and a safe that didn’t work. Dining was adequate but pretty repetitive. Still, the hotel offers decent value for money given its perks.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel, as the location by the Irrawaddy River provides a unique vibe, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The rooms are decent and clean, though I expected a bit more for a three-star. Dining was good but not outstanding, which is something to keep in mind. Overall, it offers good value for money, especially for its friendliness and clean environment.
