Super cheap for the amazing quality provided!!!
omg let's talk about the beds. I asked for a bottom bunk because I hate climbing ladders, but these beds were designed in such a way that was so stable, it didnt matter if my roommate and I didn't sleep/wake around the same time. climbing in and out of bed didn't disturb either of us. AND THE MATTRESS + PILLOWS + BLANKET + TOWEL were so comfortable and of great quality.
The aircon turns on and off in the day because of power shortages, but that's an issue that the country has, not this hostel. at night, the aircon keeps running and you go to sleep / wake up in a delightfully cool room.
The staff speak both Burmese and perfect English. They are always friendly and willing to chat about my day (and I like the conversation since i'm a solo traveller!). They'll go the extra mile to help you book airport shuttles / tuktuk taxis / drivers for daytrips in Burmese, or they'll draw you a map of local food stalls that aren't even on google maps, if you want a more authentic/less touristy experience. GREAT LOCATION, there are shops/coffee/food/massage/spas nearby!
The air-con lounge & rooftop bar are also great places to chill & I had a great time getting to know other guests. That's truly the sign of a great hostel - being able to connect people! I enjoyed my stay at Mansions Hostel immensely and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone and everyone. if you're going to mandalay, stay here. there's literally nothing i regret or can complain about my stay.
