Ocean Pearl Inn II

Staff - Mr. Kyaw and Mr. Kyi at the front desk were VERY helpful, kind and caring. I received a very warm welcome from them. They're always willing to help you with your problems. In fact, they go out of their way to do their best to help you feel at home. They even helped me get a taxi that cost less than the price on my GRAB taxi app. They take a very good care of all their guests (from what I have noticed), which is really nice! If you need help with planning your trip within Myanmar, you can always ask them. They can give you detailed useful information and I have seen them help other guests makes transportation arrangements too. They speak English very well so you don't have to worry about communication barrier. Plus, the owner of the guesthouse will personally pick you up from the airport and take you back (anytime between 6.00 a.m. - 3 p.m.) provided you tell them your arrival and departure time in advance. I will definitely come back. Breakfast and Free Water - if you'd like to sample local dishes like Mohingar as part of the free breakfast instead of their healthy and balanced continental breakfast comprising of eggs, fruits, toast and coffee/burmese milk tea, you can make your request a day in advance. You can get hot/cold drinking water whenever in the dining area, which is also where you can use their kettle and fridge. the dining area is clean and I spent most of my time there working on my laptop. Quiet, Clean and Spacious Room - the single room that I booked came with a private bathroom. I asked for a quiet room and I got one. It was clean and I was very satisfied with the condition of the room. everything worked just fine. there was plenty of space to put all my things and there are more than 2 sockets for me to charge my electronic gadgets. if you have any problems, TELL THEM and they will fix it for you IMMEDIATELY. the water pressure was not a problem for me. All I had to do was let them know I'm about to use the shower so they would turn up the water pressure for me. WIFI - I was able to stream all of my shows online from my room and didn't have to wait for the videos to load. But, if you're not satisfied with the speed, LET THEM KNOW so they could do something about it. I was satisfied with the speed, though. Location - the location is superb. it's in downtown area, which makes it easy to get to many touristy spots. i also like the fact that there's the daily farmers market right in front of the guesthouse. across the guesthouse is a nice place to eat local food. it's clean, cheap and serves yummy local cuisines.
