Good experience stay in Dec 2021”

Good value hotel and very friendly staffs. Just request anything from the staffs (shampoo, shower gels, extra towels) and they are very helpful to entertain. The room was not too big (superior room with single bed for solo traveller like me) and although not too fancy it was clean and comfortable. The location was excellent for me to travel to Deen Maju Kandar Restaurant by Grabcar (the fare was affordable from the hotel) and at the hotel lobby, you can wait for your Grab at the lounge provided. Very quiet from the noise of the cars at the road nearby. Love the vibes here! Highly recommended for those looking for budget hotel with good value regardless you're travelling alone or with family and friends. However, no mineral water is provided by the hotel at the time I stayed there. So please bring your own mineral water for your stay ya!

Our stay was good. The room was clean-ish (there were orange-ish stains on the comforter) and comfy. Toilet was clean. The only thing that was funny/scary is the elevator had no light when we were staying here so every time we entered the elevator it was pitch black. Oh and they didn’t sell bottled water in the hotel. Other than that the staff were friendly. I enjoyed my stay.
