Everything was ok.. only the cleanliness of the toilet needs to improve. Housekeeping should done better brush the toilet floor and the toilet bowl.. tell them to mix vinegar into the cleaning agent.. and mix well..after that spray at the dirty area and leave for couple minutes.. before brushing n cleaning..it will sparkle clean..
One thing that i like is the water dispenser they put outside the lobby..
And if you have extra person in the room just add rm15. Look forward to my next stay

Place to stay for a night”
Pros - Hotel room is clean and simple. Comfy bed and blanket. Aircond is cold enough. Overall, it has no problem for you to stay for a night.
Cons - Checked in hotel at 3am, location is not easy to locate as the lift (which we can see hotel signboard) in mall is close during that time. The hotel is located at 3rd floor. We've contact hotel receptionist to request someone to guide us to the hotel, as we really not familiar with that building structure. I guess would be easier to find the hotel during day time.

The hotel is located at the 3 rd floor in Star City Mall. I it is not difficult to find if you take lift at Zone 1 or just request the grab car to send you up to the hotel with a little bit extra cost.
Once you are there, you will be happy about this hotel, friendly staff and good room service . The room is clean, good water pressure & the hot water works well.
The location is just walking distance to kk waterfront, seafood stall, filipino market, night market.

indonesian hospitality
contrary to the other comments on agoda, the location is not hard to find if you are that kind of person who doesn't hold back and isn't cheap on asking people for the a particular place. I like this kind of hospitality shown by the front desk. Not only they are attentive to one's request, I could say they are also diligent on checking the unoccupied rooms as I had seen. Rooms are good and clean.
