This was our third stay at the Okinawa. Paid $7 each for dorm room as this was all that was available. Me Me speaks excellent english and has a reputation for being rude, however he seems to give this impression but once you talk to him he is quite friendly and remembered us from our past stays. Okinawa guesthouse is... More

I stayed in the 5 people dorm room. It was just a hot, attic room with thin matrasses next to each other on the floor. Really uncomfortable - so absoluetely no sleep quality. The shared bathroom was horrible. It smelled like they never clean it. I suppose the fact that there are so few guesthouses in Yangon and so many... More

In the old part of town which is the pits - endless broken pavements, trash in the streets. Yangon is a mess. This is a small guest house. My room was $50 a night with two beds, no windows, No hot water, no plug, sort of place we all stayed in when we were 20 and didn't care. Horrible really.... More

I was frightened to go there after having read the reviews in Tripadvisor and having paid a room without even seeing it. So I was positively surprised after checking in. It's a really nice wooden house, the rooms have wooden floors. The matresses like on the floor, Japan style. Unfortunately I couldn't see if the rooms were clean cause it's... More

PROS: - Central location in Yangon (easy walk to most places); - Aesthetically pleasing within the common areas of the hotel. CONS: - Cold showers (poor drainage); - Toilet access (must walk through wet shower area, which eventually gets dirty as you cannot wear footwear inside the hotel). Stayed at the Okinawa Guest House for 6 nights with my girlfriend... More

Such an awful stay! Dirty, extremely stinky, noisy and just a terrible place. Ants and spiders is something what i can tolerate, but a large worm in my sink is beyond this. Also I travel lots and i can't remember ruder management than here. Breakfast is terribly poor. In a word- i would better spend a night at the airport... More

I stayed her in early June 2012. We stayed on the main floor, and it was alright. The walls were a bit thin, leaving little privacy. Staff here are friendly, and we did enjoy the authentic Burmese breakfast. This was little more than a hopping off place.

I recently stayed at the guest house and it was a pretty terrible experience! The room was really dirty (musty, damp and a dirty bathroom) and also very run down (peeling walls etc.). It was also very dark with blacked out windows, and had a super loud air con which was so noisy at night it was crazy! But unfortunately... More

The guest house is very central and most of taxi drivers know it. Price is still very reasonable. We payed 35USD / night for... More

I don't write many reviews but I fee that this place has been done an injustice! I stayed in the $7 dorm and it was good. The bed was comfortable, the mosquito net did the job and he air conditioning was at a nice temperature. The shower was nice and cool, but not spotless clean. The owner, I'l admit, seems... More
