Shwe Yo offers free tickets on the city train that goes in a loop around Yangon and into the country. This is a fun, chill afternoon and a great way to meet locals and see a whole lot you wouldn’t otherwise. The owners also provide a wonderful home cooked meal for breakfast every morning — they take great pride in it and for good reason! It’s usually simple but quite satisfying.
Cleanliness is just fine–the rooms are well-maintained, and the bathroom has no issues. There isn’t too much space–the hostel fills up very quickly and the common area is rather small–but honestly, this is more than made up for by the stellar workers, the icy A/C (!) and the breakfast.
