Clean room but aged furnitures with hard mattress. Plug points faulty. Location great for foodies.
Best thing about this hotel is its free & spacious on site parking for a hotel located right in the city centre
The 2nd best thing is the choice of eateries located within walking distance from the hotel

Plenty of eatery nearby
We stayed 3 nights and the room was comfortable. The aircon was not so cooling on the 1st day, after feedback, it was better.
Complimentary breakfast has limited quantity and variety.

Wifi is very poor. Room service can improve. Need to replace necessary items in the hotel such as iron board and iron (very bad condition). Location is good. counter staff is friendly. Breakfast is ok very limited items and staff is not approachable to ask for help.
The hotel is old and in terrible condition. Faulty power sockets, faulty water heater. Bed is very hard. Old thin blankets. Asked for extra pillow but was rejected. Wifi was unstable. Overall uncomfortable stay.
Reception didn’t have my booking. When they finally have it, they gave me the wrong room. The correct room was poorly maintained with ants crawling around. Bathtub was badly clogged by a huge chunk of hair which I guess has been left there for eons. Attitude of staff was rude as well. They were uninterested in our requests.

Das Hotel ist zentral gelegen und alle Sehenswürdigkeiten in George Town schnell erreichbar. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Zimmer sind sauber und nett eingerichtet. Flur und Lobby sind schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen aber insgesamt stimmt das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.

Overall biasa2 sangat dan terlampau biasa bagi sebuah Hotel yang berusia.Jauh dari tempat2 menarik di Georgetown dan perlu naik grab sebab nak elak bawak kereta sendiri akibat jem yg teruk.Hanya banyak tempat makanan Non Muslim di persekitaran hotel,hanya restoren Pelita yang ada itupun 4 blok dari Hotel...Pendek kata,memang takkan mengibap disini lagi dah..sekian

The location is strategic... lots of eatery shops & shopping malls... staffs are friendly.
The swimming pool needs to put more effort to maintain it or else it can transform to a garden or gym room or a park.

near to a late night food court/hawker center. very convenience
The hotel is in the heart of the hawker areas but recently other hotels have opened as an alternative.
The clealiness of the room was a problem. We have stayed here before and it has been tired and dated but acceptable for the price.
During our two week stay the toilet was not cleaned even though it was obvious we had been unwell. The glasses and mugs were not changed either. The level of dust aand grime throughout the whole room showed that it had not been properly cleaned long before our check in.
