The room is smallish, but what the hell, I used... More

The location of this hotel is just awesome... Smack right in town with everything from pubs to disco to food next to hotel and local Indian food right opposite the hotel. Cleanliness wise room is clean, air conditioner is cold... In fact a bit on the cold side. The staff greets you... But merely Hotel buffet breakfast is just ok...... More

It is in a good location, right smack in the city area. Ideal for a short business stay when you wont be spending too much time in the hotel. Not recommended for anything more than that. Its a purely functional hotel. The hotel breakfast in a tiny cafe is good for those who just want to fill their stomach with... More

OMG it was the worst hotel stay I had ever been. The wifi (RM11.60) was unstable. Staff was unfriendly. Breakfast was cold. Check out the picture, the hot water from the tap was BROWN (it was darker than what you see at the picture) You will be able to find a better place with this price else where. Please stay... More

My first impression of the hotel was lukewarm, they had a small cafe and even smaller lobby! My family proceeded to check in, however we had a small argument with the discourteous receptionists over the price which was inaccurately displayed on their website. During my stay ,i had several mosquitoes *greeting* me upon my arrival. Cockroaches were seen ,scurrying up... More

This hotel is basic and clean. The only problem we encountered was that there is a food market that opens at night that is located directly below the hotel (next to the Cheong Fat Tze museum). They play loud music until the wee hours of the morning and the noise carries right up to the rooms. As much as the... More

Stayed here on a family trip, with the hotel bookings already made by my in-law. I would never ever dare to stay here again, because: - There's a food place right next to the hotel which has performances every night. So loud music till past midnight. - Very dirty hotel room. The rubber mat that is to be used in... More

Last minute trips we planned left us with limited choice of hotel on our range. This hotel was one of them and we booked it online. The location was good, near with mamak stalls. Just for note: it quite hard to find halal food in georgetown. We booked 2 rooms. Our rooms located at 3rd floor and face on back... More
