    It's COOL and fairly clean hotel, has particularly good and ideal location to reach the shopping mall. The rooms are modest and brand-new, with nice decoration.

    Tidy hotel with brand-new rooms. Strategic location near a mall. Short walk to many restaurants, stalls, uptown, historical places, and shopping malls. Close to key tourist sites. Visit Secret Recipe nearby for tea or coffee. A good stay next to our vacation

    Location just next door to easy access to public transportation and major shopping complex-Mahkota Parade, Dataran Pahlawan and Hatten Square and the shopping areas. Savoury food, especially exceptionally nice breakfast.

    I was pleasantly surprised by the convenient location of the hotel. It was perfectly situated between the malls and Jonker Street, making it incredibly easy to explore and shop. The added bonus of free parking connected to the hotel was a huge plus. The staff were very helpful and friendly, providing excellent service throughout our stay. Our room was just the right size for our group and the price was reasonable. I also appreciated the cleanliness of the toilet and the functioning hot shower.

    Although the TV channel selection was limited, we were able to plug in our own pendrive to watch our preferred shows. Additionally, the walkway upstairs was a bit quiet, which may be a concern for some.

    This hotel's location is unbeatable! It's walking distance to all the top tourist attractions, including historical landmarks, museums, and bustling markets. Plus, the room service was top-notch, and the breakfast was delicious. The view of the city from our room was breathtaking, and we loved the leisure facilities this hotel had to offer. We especially appreciated the fact that there was ample parking available for those traveling by car.

    The noise levels in the hotel were quite high, which made it difficult to get a good night's sleep.

    Conveniently located within walking distance of major attractions, we spent 2 nights at this clean and pleasant hotel. 😊

    The location of the hotel is fantastic, with easy access to major attractions and shopping complexes. Despite the basic amenities and small play area, the rooms are clean and well-maintained. The housekeeping service is commendable, as they even cleaned the room when the Do Not Disturb sign was up. The cost and central location make it a worthwhile stopover or an ideal choice for backpackers. With smoke-free and clean rooms, I give it 4 stars.
