      location, clean room

      gw furama is located close to the chinese temple and the high rise harbor view hotel, where you will find many similar hotels. the hotel is located on a quiet back road, so hardly any traffic noise.the room with attached bathroom is functional and clean. the hotel could improve: - make the hotel non-smoking; certainly the male receptionist should not smoke in the small lobby - remove the cleaning (and other) stuff in the staircase on each floor, this does not look good at all. note: the hotel does not provide food. there are restaurants close by.

      Situated on Lorong Green Hill 3, this hotel is very handy to access all the points of interests of the city. There are a lot of restaurants nearby so you have a lot of choice. The owner of the place who's also the receptionist is very smiley and helpful. The rooms are ok, quite big and the bathroom has a bathtub. Unfortunately, the walls seem to be made out of paper as you can hear everything which make the place very noisy.

Cons: Antient air-cond & TV, only one power wall socket in the room which is too high from the floor, anyway these are small matters to me

      Not up to my expectation. However the front-line staff was very helpful.

      Instead of facing the air-con towards the bed, it faces towards the toilet. Could hardly feel the coolness. The pillow cases had a bad smell, and I have to get it changed. Bed-sheet has stain on it. Room wifi signal very poor. I have to use the lobby to excess my internet.

      Stayed 1 night in February 2015

      not so 2 star hotel”

      location, space & friendly receptionist

      We just stayed for one night. The room was from 80's era i guess. Even though it is quite a big space..but everything need renovation/image enhancement. The hot water was a plus, but water tab was leaking everywhere.

      not a bad stay in this hotel”

      location, price, comfortable

      not bad, near to most attraction places and easy to access. but the reception should have put on a smile when receiving a guest. :)
