Great Experience”

Pros This hotel is very strategic. Just walking distance to nasi kandar line clear & chowrasta market. In front of the hotel there are 24h bakery, 24h restaurant and 24h happy mart. Really convenient if you hungry in the midnight. The parking was superb just need 150 deposit and will refund back during check out session. This hotel also very near to the famous teow chew cendol & ais tingkap walking around 5-10 minutes. Jeruk pak ali also walking distance which beside the chowrasta market. For Muslim, the mosque just require 4-5 minutes walking. The service was excellence where i can check the room condition first before load the luggage. I got room 201, theres balcony and you can see the komtar from here. Next of the hotel you can find trishaw and in front of the hotel there's taxi queue waiting for customer. Grab also easy to find this hotel. High recommend for this hotel! Cons This hotel close to the main street and it will be your alarm for every morning.

The hotel staff can communicate in english and malay which make it's easy to communicate with them. Love the water filter they have and even put a section to iron your clothes. So far the room is okay. The airconditioner function really well. I think it's lack of plug to use especially in the bigger room for lots of people, it's not enough. And the sink kinda blocked the other day. And the towel is very thin and short. Other than that everything is fine to me. It's just the plug to charge your phones been bothering me.
