Had a comfortable stay in Hickory and an enjoyable experience on the hill. Great view of the city fr”

Breakfast was very satisfying. Location is alright as property is situated within walking distance of train stop. Walking to the summit might be a problem for the elderly as byepath F is rather steep.
The entrance to the room where I stayed was rather dark at night. Had some difficulty placing the room key to the keyhole. Will be good if there is a small light switch at the entrance to the room which guests can operate on their own.

Lovely getaway in Penang”

Very pleasant stay. Great food and great hosts in a perfect ambience.
Pillows were a tad too hard and too soft; and the lovely ambience was disrupted by noisy guests who turned on really loud karaoke music at the top deck.
