Decent hotel to stay!”

I’m from Melaka and the last stay was my 3rd time staying at this hotel. I must say that so far this hotel meets all the needs. I’m a simple traveller. As long as the hotel has comfy beds and clean l, I won’t complain much. This hotel ticks those boxes. It’s clean, staff is friendly. Check-in/check-in is smooth. Might be a big tiny in space but overall it’s a decent hotel to stay for the night :) Plus, there are many stores around the area to get your snacks!

Clean, Quiet and Minimalist”

The room is clean, the bed is big(but with a small patch of stain at the far end, which I only notice before check out) and consider clean, clean toilet, with 2 shower mode, rainfall and normal shower, they provide toothbrush as well! The surroundings is quiet but you feel secure as they post out security guards in front their hotel during night time.

Good location, clean rooms”

Everything here is decent. For the price you are paying, i think it is good. Had my wedding held at Pekin Cermerlang which was few mins drive away. Ikea was about 5-7mins grab ride away depending on traffic. Lamuse cafe and Paris Cafe was also less than 10 mins away. Overall location is great! Think the service at the reception could be more efficient...and maybe have at least one person who can speak english/chinese. I was lucky to have an in-law who was a malaysian and had to translate the entire time i was there...which was quite a headache and frustrating for us and the staff. Other than the language barrier, their service was great so thumbs up ;) Room was clean too!
