They immediately confiscated our passports, which they refused to give back - without any explanation. The husband began to say that he read that they can stop and check the ticket number (for visiting museums) and the passport number, and what will we do if we don’t have passports with us (by the way, they can just stop and ask for a passport), the receptionist just shrugged his shoulders and said nothing. We went to check in: I immediately noticed that the bed linen was changed only in part of the pillows, and the rest was simply pulled on and left used. I was indignant and asked to change the linen, the receptionist took a long time to think, then a very dissatisfied aunt came and they changed the linen. There was no water or tea in the room, it’s good that they brought soap and shampoo, but that’s where it all ended: on the second day, when they didn’t bring water, the husband went to kick the receptionist and they gave out more water, then they went to remind them to give shampoo. During the 4 days that we lived there, there was no cleaning, or even trash removal, or changing of towels (probably we could have gone and kicked again, but we came to relax, and not to run after the receptionist). The passport, of course, was returned after checking the number upon departure (I don’t know what was there to check, but still). Next there were negotiations about renting a bike. They asked us for 20 thousand for each (in the reviews read in advance, it was written that the locals were insolent and were asking for as much as 12 thousand, and this was very expensive). We thought of asking in time to ask to see what it looked like - it turned out that it was a motorcycle (we thought it was a bicycle with a motor) and changed our minds about renting them at all, we don’t drive a motorcycle, and Burma is not the country where you need to experiment. While we were walking in the city, we agreed with a tuk-tuk to ride the next day, all day for 40 thousand. They came and asked the hotel how much it would cost - they said 70 thousand. They asked to buy bus tickets to Mandalay - they said ok, it costs 18 thousand. The next day: oh, it costs 30 thousand. When we said that it says on the Internet that it costs 18, they answered us - well, go and buy it yourself. Which is exactly what we did, the tuk-tukker, who heard all this, immediately quietly told us that the price was negligible and he would take us to the bus station. Conclusion: there is no need to order anything at the hotel. The next morning we came for breakfast. We waited 15 minutes for the table to be set up and the plates to be brought (I understand that we lived alone in the hotel, but the table could have been set up). Breakfast is modest: omelet, rice/noodles, toast, coffee, juice. Thank God, at least they packed the lunch box. When leaving with a tuk-tuk the next morning, some lively individual (apparently the senior porter) rushed over: show me your reservation! we replied that the reservation was given to the receptionist, and what the hell. She insisted, I had to open the electronic booking and show it. I don’t know what it was - perhaps the guy lost our paper reservation and just checked in at random. We asked our aunt why they took the passports, they could be checked, she first said: yes, I’ll bring the passports now, especially since the hotel was paid for, then she returned 5 minutes later and said no, we have the passports until we leave. In addition to everything described, it is worth considering that in Bagan the electricity is constantly turned off: on the first day we arrived at 17.20, there was no light. The receptionist said that they would turn it on at 17.30, the light would last for an hour, then they would turn it off and the next time they would turn it on at 19.30 until 21, then at night they would turn it off again until the morning. This is not a hotel problem, most likely the lights are turned off throughout the city, but be aware.
