Dhaka is one of the world's biggest and most intimidating cities. As Shams's staff's helpfulness really mitigated that. For example, I got my breakfast order written out in Bengali so I could go into any neighborhood restaurant and try it. It's located in an area of new Dhaka, actually in the printing trades area, one can really see the city as it is there. And it's convenient to Old Dhaka sites, the staff helping as well in obtaining a pagrickshaw to get there.
The room wasn't fancy but it had windows and was cool with the fan. Very pleasant and as in the heading- economical.
Overall a great choice in a challenging place.
