If coming to Yangon, stay here

My trip to Yangon couldn't have started worse. The airline lost my bag, the ATMS wouldn't take my card, the airport money exchanges wouldn't take cash Australian dollars, the last city bus had gone.Things looked up when I got here. The Hood trains young aspiring hospitality workers so you get hotel service for hostel prices. Not the accommodation ofcourse but the rooms have curtained bunks, bunk lights and power points , lockers and total privacy in partitions. The management could not have been more helpful. They kept ringing the airline until my bag was found and delivered, and directed me to a nearby place where I could get emergency needs. A good breakfast is included and they have a restaurant serving reasonably priced good meals. The hostel is close to main tourist sites

Black Market Rates

We checked into the Hood Hostel via Booking.com @ $80 US for 3 nights. The official Central Bank of Myanmar exchange rate is 2,100mmk to one $, HOOD charges 3,000 mmk per USD, making the room cost $113.00 $US, $33.00 MORE than the advertised and agreed price quoted by Booking.com. The Manager, a Mr Thiha Aung tries to justify this by claiming Google is misinformed.
NEVER ever pay at this property, pay via Booking.com, they charge black market rates.
The whole place is minimalist, resembling a prison cell with bare concrete walls and floors, with cracks and holes in both. Air freshers are used to try to mask the dank smell of mold and damp. No kettle in the room, only a water fountain on the corridor that is broken.
Communal washrooms are a disgrace and a breeding ground for mold and mosquitoes. Private washroom is marginally better, just a little less mold.

Good choice

The most important and useful is staff at there. Very helpful. They helped me to find my luggage lost by airline and exchanged currency by good rate. Room is spacious, bed is soft and big. I was very satisfied
