The hotel is close to the airport. However it isn’t what I’d call clean. The sheets and towels were no longer white. The bathroom didn’t look clean but this in part is due to the hard water staining. Rust marks on the floor from the bin. Plastic on the shower door fell off and the vanity was coming apart from moisture. The pool area was nice and I had it to myself.
Travelling into downtown Yangon is easy enough (hotel staff kindly organised a taxi for me) but it was super difficult and way more expensive to get one back to the hotel.
The breakfast buffet was good. And staff are friendly, there is just a very limited amount of English spoken.
The airport bus transfer needs to be organised in advance and there are set pickup times.
I’d not recommend this hotel. The hotels downtown are better value, not modern and cleaner. You will just as easily get a taxi from downtown to the airport.

Older than it looked in photos, dents in wall, dangerous step down to bathroom, air conditioner doesn’t get cold enough - and my room is right next to a speed bump so vehicles always braking and then revving up noisily. In the plus side , wifi level is good by Myanmar standards

The section that I was placed in was a little outdated,with heavy furniture which when moved about made a lot of noise which was quite noticeable if you were on the lower floor and the residents in the above room were moving about. Also the bathroom shower threw water all over the floor.
On reflection I should have requested a room overlooking the pool which was situated away from the main pedestrian traffic.

Perfect business hotel close to the airport

Myanmar life hotel is a nice spot for a quick stop over or 1-2 days business meetings. Compared to the price, the rooms are comfy enough and clean. Breakfast is decent and is provided in a not-so-big breakfast room. The staff were very friendly, cordial and responsive. Language was a barrier for communication but they take all efforts to understand you. The swimming pool is great and good place for relaxing.

Fair value for money in an older hotel

While the hotel is a fair value for money, there were some things that weren't good. They chose to fog the lower level, which included the restaurant, at dinner time. The hallway carpets were very dirty. And the decor in the entire hotel was dated and worn. That said, it has a great pool and the rooms are clean, bug and smell free, and relatively spacious.

Just okay

Great location near the airport, and has free shuttle. If you stay in the first building, there is no elevator, so you have to lug your suitcase to the second floor. One of the employees can help you, but sometimes they are busy and I don’t want to wait. The rooms are a bit run down and the water from the shower gets everywhere in the bathroom. Could have designed that better. Lighting in bathroom is also quite dim. Could use a bigger light bulb. Breakfast was very Asian. No eggs, but they did have toast, fruit, and coffee/tea.

We used the hotel as it was close to the airport for a return flight. They allowed us to check in for the night of the stay at 0600 hours which was really appreciated as we had got off the night coach from Bagan. A nice place to relax with a pool and OK restaurant.

Convenient location near the airport

The best thing about this hotel is its proximity to the airport. So convenient for a one night stopover and the shuttle service is brilliant. There's nothing else in the area so you have to eat in the hotel restaurant which is a bit pricey. We had a room in the old building but it was pleasant enough. I accidentally broke a glass in the room and I took it to the reception. Now I don't mind paying for it to be replaced. But they charged me 5000kyat ($5US) which I think is an unreasonable amount and doesn't communicate to me a spirit of hospitality. One other time when something like that happened in another hotel, they just smiled and said never mind.

Convenient Hotel for air transfers

Good pick up and drop off at airport. Pleasant staff but not the best trained - perhaps as it seems to cater more for Asian visitors. Lovely swimming pool. Big place so rooms may vary but ourse was clean but noisy - street behind. Ask for quiet room. Breakfast Asian but there is a place to order eggs - we only found this out after breakfast!

Convenient transit hotel

I selected this airport hotel because of its free shuttle service. I stayed at the older unit which was adequate. The hotel has a newer section. Breakfast was surprisingly good. There were more Asian selections as expected. Overall it is good value and I would recommend this hotel if one has an early flight out of Yangon.

Clean and convenient airport hotel

The hotel was fine since we just needed a place to stay overnight before catching a flight the next morning. The short distance to the airport and free transport to the airport were thus the main factors for us. Don't expect any frills though or much around the area. A clean airport hotel that fits the bill for an overnight stopover.

It is very nice that the hotel was very close to the airport. For transfer was great because you don't have to worry about Yangon traffic. It as a plus that they have a free shuttle bus to and from the airport.However, the only complain was I was there my self for catching flight to Bangkok. I have stranger that knocking on my door in the evening and calling to my room which I don't know of. It make me feel not very safe as a solo female travel. I hope management will make a note of it.

Good hotel if you need to be near the airport.

We mostly needed a hotel near the airport and the hotel was fine. By western standards it needs a little more upkeep but by Myanmar standards it's a pretty decent hotel for the price. The staff was friendly, the room was reasonable for the price, wifi is slow but it is slow even at the fanciest hotel in Myanmar so no worries there. I would recommend the hotel if you need a short stay near the airport or between flights. It is 5 minutes from the airport but some 40 minutes from downtown Yangon.

Close to Yangon City without the traffic

Hotel Staff was very helpful and friendly.
The rooms were clean and comfortable. The swimming pool area was luxurious.

The only negative was that there was some construction of an addditional new hotel building and not all driveways were paved. Other than that it was a nice getaway from the crowded city life of Yangon.

接客は良いが、蚊が多くて……

接客は非常に良かったですが、我々の通された部屋が他の方の口コミにある旧館(?)っぽく、古い部屋だぅたのか、蚊が多くて…。備え付けのモスキートトラップを一晩中稼働させると、朝にはほぼ蚊はいなくなりましたが、それでも夜中羽音には苦しみました。
蚊の多さで疲弊し、外出は諦め、ホテルのルームサービスディナーを頼みましたが、ご飯はそこそこでした。(美味しいわけではない) 朝食も同じレベルです。
トランジットとして、一泊だけだったので、(また、殆どの方がそのような用途でとまられると思いますが)別に構いませんが、蚊で寝不足になると、疲れが溜まるので、次は止まりません。(モスキートトラップをせめて、チェックイン前から稼働させておけば、マシだったのでは……
接客は非常に良かったです。

予約時にどの建物に宿泊するのか明示してほしい。

７月下旬に１泊。空港からタクシーで向かう際、Google Mapでは二つの別のホテルが隣り合わせに建っているように表示された。まずこれが混乱の元。
実際に、一番道路側のレセプションでチェックインしようとすると、ここではない、奥の建物へ行け、と言われた。
奥の一番大きくホテルらしい外観の建物の中にあるレセプションでも、私の予約番号がきちんと伝わっていなかったのか（ホテルズドットコムではなくエクスペディアで予約したことになっていた）、さらに奥にある建物へ行かされた。ただ、雨の中、どちらの移動も女性スタッフが傘を貸してくれ荷物も運んでくれたので、まともなホテルだと思った。
一番奥のレセプションでようやくチェックインを受け付けてもらい、さらに奥にある二階建ての新しい建物の中の部屋に通された。ホテルに着いてから約20分が経とうとしていた。
このホテルの前の交通量が多い道路を歩いてみたが、地元民向けの食堂が何軒かあるくらい。売店やコンビニは皆無。小さなベーカリーがあったのでパンを買ったところ、わりと美味しかった。
宿泊した部屋は、価格の割には広くて調度品もゴージャスだった。浴室も広かった。一人旅の私には贅沢な部屋だった。
夕食を、最初に入った建物の半地下にあるレストラン（ここが翌日の朝食会場だった）で食べた、メニューは少ないが、味はそこそこであった。朝食ビュッフェはやや残念な感じであった。
