One of the planks that served as dividing wall between beds came off and the staff never put it back up despite me telling them to. The bathroom was filthy.

Budget-friendly. Walking distance to malls, money changers and stalls.

I was disappointed with the rooftop kitchen. It would be good if there were a microwave and a decent stovetop cooker. It makes it easier for guests to heat food and make quick meals

Staff were very friendly and helpful. They helped us to call Grabs and print documents. Great location - walking distance to many historic places downtown. I love the focus of The Hood as a social enterprise.

Wifi is a bit weak and inconsistent. Some shower rooms don't have a lock on the door. Most of the time, the shower room floor was dirty.

Helpful and nice staff. Comfortable bed mattress and privacy curtains. Good location.

Lots of issues with cleanliness, including rat droppings in the hostel. Some parts of the hostel clearly haven’t been cleaned in a long time. The bathroom is run down, floods, smells bad and one of the taps stopped working whilst I was there. Lockers are very small.

The staff were great. Always friendly and willing to help with any issues. They were able to advise where the nearest money exchange with good rates was, and also helped when I had issues with the room. Beds are comfortable and have privacy curtains, and charging sockets near the bed. The hostel has few issues with electricity dropping out unlike the rest of Myanmar. Breakfast was very good too.

Some of the self-conscious graphics are a bit much and could be toned down; the white-on-white-on-white act shows dirt and stains. Still, it has the feel of a well-branded identity and social commitment. No elevator--with the steep staircase, pity the fool who carries heavy luggage, Hood might consider installing a cardio-defibrillator on the landing and stair slide to shoot the coronary cases down to the waiting ambulances. The dorm rooms could use a few coat hooks and slightly larger lockers. Communal bathrooms have some design flaws; they could use a good cleaning to rid the mildew, and please dump the concrete sink thing—a lousy idea from the start.

The dormitory set-up is good, with super comfortable bed mattresses, cozy space boxes, and quiet, sensical lighting. I might think twice about 'good' if the large dorm rooms were full because there isn't space between bed boxes.; your neighbor's flatulence would be not only an aural extra but a fragrance bouquet. The staff is super friendly and accommodating to the customer’s needs. There is a good, positive attitude amongst the employees. They seem happy to be there. The cats in the reception are good value, one curmudgeon and one mischief maker. Cocktails in the ground floor bar are good value, and decent food is served. Lots of greenery out front.
