    Disadvantages: 1. Tv is not functioning. 2. Water interruption from 2-5 am daily. A pail is provided anyway. 3. Water pressure is a bit low. No water in the toilet sink. 4. Toilet flush is not well functioning. 5. The room is a bit small. As for muslim, it is very hard to perform prayer within that limited space. If you want to stay here, please choose a slightly larger room. 6. The comforter got blood stain 😣 7. Wifi always got problem... Advantages: 1. Friendly staffs 2. Got water refill - cuckoo/coway water filter. 3. Close to Skudai Parade - walking distance: 15 mins 4. Easy to get halal food. About 6-7 cafe/restaurants nearby. Mamak's restaurant also available. 5. Convenient stores are also available. 6. Self service laundry shop is just in front of the hotel. But, the shop is not clean and some washers and dryers did not function. 7. Atm is available Caltex petrol station. About 10-15 min walking.
