My first introduction to Yangon and Myanmar since this is the first place I went to after I landed. First, I saw 2 small cockroaches and promptly killed them and figured that was ok, since it was very humid and well after 12 am. I was exhausted and was trying to figure out everything in the room. Then I saw two more in the bathroom, these every much smaller and I wasnt happy about it but was still going to roll with it. ||||Then I get in the bed, and I see another medium sized one under the covers, this time a silver one. That for me was the last straw, I went downstairs and got a new room and told them to use pesticide in from of my on every corner of the room. I stayed in this new room for the next night and didnt have any roaches, but I definitely wont stay here again. ||||The room was just a bed and a chair, the bathroom looked okay and the decor was kinda homey. ||||I didnt like the lobby or how they stared at me while I was there. The area seemed to be a busy intersection, not too clean and walking friendly but the tea shop across looked interesting, i had tea there the next day and it was pretty decent. No one spoke english so I wasnt able to order any food. ||||I walked to one the amazing burmese restaurants, so that was really convenient. The breakfast was quite terrible, they did make nice lattes.
