Overall I don’t know that I recommend this hotel. First, the good: the entire staff was super friendly and accommodating, it was easy and reasonably priced to book a private taxi through the hotel for day trips, and the breakfast buffet was really good. The bad: it was next to impossible to get any sleep during our three night stay. The walls are paper thin so you hear everything next to and above you. It’s also located on a busy street and next to train tracks (with constant honking by both until late at night and beginning before sunrise), as well as located next to a middle school. I’m not sure if it was due to a holiday or special event, but we were awakened by scores of children on microphones, shouting, and playing instruments beginning at 8am. If you are anything short of a very heavy sleeper, you will struggle.

Disgusting Hotel
This is the dirtiest hotel I have ever stayed at. I expected a budget hotel, but I was shocked to see how dirty this place was. The sheets had stains. There were stains on the walls. There was literally a used tissue with a blood stain on it being used to hold up the glass top of the bureau. They provided flip flops for the bathroom that were very dirty. My husband slept in his clothes, because it was clearly a very dirty room.

A comfortable stay
Nothing spectacular however delivered comfort together with a decent breakfast for AUD35. This compares to a nearby hotel I paid AUD45 that was more comfortable but had to move from because of noise; trains and karaoke bar. If worried about getting woken by the trains, ask for a room away from the road. Hotel offers a small roof top resturant to enjoy a drink and meal in the evening

RUINED OUR TRIP TO MANDALAY!!!!
Ruined our stay in Mandalay!! We asked for a taxi for the day to see 2 waterfalls but we were taken to other locations where we dod not want to go. Driver eventually found a waterfall but not the right one. Managers attitude when we complained was not helpful and would only give small discount on the price. It was our last day so could not do the trip next day. Rooftop bar is nice but the room is small and dated. Bathroom a bit old and grubby but decent price for central location.

Friendly staff and good value hotel
Friendly staff who speak a bit of English and always try to help, easiest way to get around is by taxi as the sights are spread around so no ideal one place to stay. Breakfast was ok, room not massive but for the price it was perfectly adequate.

Good budget hotel with rooftop bar.
Decent size room with fridge, tea/ coffee and free water, very hard bed tho. Lift was handy so we didn't have to climb stairs. Had lovely rooftop bar and indoor resturant with good prices and good food. Lovely helpful staff. Ok location,close to train station. we walked to the royal palace but got completely stuck in traffic trying to cross South Moat Road so take care if your walking there as there are no footpaths and lots of traffic.

Cheap spot to stay for a night or two
I stayed for just one night before flying out to Bangkok. The staff were friendly and had some good restaurant recommendations. They were also able to book me a quick trip to Mandalay hill, which was a nice way to finish the day.

Close to Rail Station
I stayed at the hotel due to proximity to the railway station. The hotel is average so don't have overly high expectations. Roof top bar isn't bad but is tiny. Breakfast/dining area could do with a clean.
