I have stayed in many different budget guesthouses, hotels and hostels in SE Asia but this was definitely the worst accomodation we came across. The rooms are mouldy and cell-like. The cleanliness in the bathroom, in particular, left a lot to be desired. One or two members of the staff were pleasant and helpful but the others (especially management) were... More

Nice little garden and open-air eating area, and most of the staff --with one very nasty exception -- were friendly and tried hard to please. That's about all that's positive. Recently opened, it has still to get its management into shape. Mistakes abound, partly perhaps because the staff speaks almost no English. As another guest pointed out, the rooms are... More

Stayed there for 1 night, had a cell like room with no windows. It wasn't very clean either, the water from the sink was smelly. The view from the breakfastroom was great, opposite the Sule pagoda . They charge cheaper rates for local people, i had no other option then to stay there, cheap rooms are hard to find these... More

Breakfast consists of 4 slices of white bread with some jam and tea; ok I suppose as I only paid about $10 per night. Just across the road... More

Garden GH is directly next to the Shwe Pagoda; so the comforting low hum of ''Om mane whatever-it-is'' carries on most of the day. Quite sleep-inducing. Rooms are typical of the $12 class of guesthouse: mostly windowless boxes from the firetrap school of hotel architecture, but with toilet/shower - some of which are occasionally warm. But the manager [who was... More
