The View Resort & Restaurant

Very disappointing: permanent power cuts and virtually no generator, we had to shower in the dark with cold water. Dinner: dirty, crumpled table clothes. Power went off again and the staff had no back-up whatsoever, either battery-powered lamps or even candles. We had to have our Christmas dinner at the light of our mobile. Breakfast also underwhelming, served in a kind of weird and disappointing barn/stable. Apart from one or two girls, the staff was also absolutely useless, a bunch of teenagers in crumpled shirts, no uniform, no proper clothing in sight, no sense of service, no attention to the client. Lousy all along. When we complained to the GM, we found a useless chap, putting all the blame on the owner, whereas he's been the manager here for 3 years. He had 3 years to buy candles and a proper iron for clothes, and it's not the owner's fault if it wasn't done. He stubbornly refused to give any discount and we eventually paid 70 USD for a disappointing stay. We would have had much better stay for half the price anywhere in Myanmar. Unacceptable.
