Friendly staff and a clean room. Here’s my reasons I gave average rating:
1. Check out process took very long - front desk sent someone to my room to check everything was okay. That took a long time.
2. They charged me for 2000kyat for a stain on bath towel. I have no problem paying but wish I could have known during check in. There was no written or verbal rules about those charges. So be careful using towels.
3. This is what made me most upset. I paid hotel and hotel arranged a taxi to U-Bein bridge to see sunset and then the same taxi drive me to airport directly. We left at the time hotel suggested (5:15am) and got there at 5:45am. It was so dark and the Sunset was not until 6:20am. The driver asked me to take photos in dark and wanted to go to airport. He spoke almost no English but I can tell he didn’t want to wait so I had to argue with him that is not the arrangement I had with hotel and asked him to call hotel. End of story was I left before sunset because I was a solo traveler and didn’t want to upset him. So make sure you, hotel and the driver understand the arrangement. My mistake was only to talk to the hotel and trusted that hotel told the driver.

Booked a Double, but got a Twin room instead.
Booked a Double-Bed room, but got a Twin Bed. Sure, there's some fine print noticed in hindsight that says room 'preferences' can't be guaranteed, but I don't consider the bed type as a preference. The bed type is one of the prime conditions of a booking, and the hotel should be upfront about the availability of room types so that customers can make the appropriate choice to select a better hotel if this one has no double-bed rooms remaining. Very disappointing, I would not have chosen to book a twin room and so I cannot recommend this place based on their deceptive booking practices.
Das Hotel hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Das Zimmer war sehr schön fast schon luxuriös für die ca. 13$ die wir pro Nacht/Person bezahlt haben (inkl. Gutem Frühstück). Es war sehr sauber/ die Zimmer werden täglich gereinigt. Das Personal ist hilfsbereit und freundlich. Auf dem Zimmer hat man Wifi und täglich erhält man gratis eine Flasche Wasser. Einzig zu bemängeln ist, dass es aus dem Fenster keine Aussicht hat und man erwas die Strasse hört, dies hat uns aber nicht gestört.
