Near the Nasi Kandar Restoran, Easy to walkable. Need to improve for the Iron place (Put I floor for one iron). Please change the torn toilet curtain. The family room is big.

6/10 Good

stayed here because of the low price, the place feels old and dated.The room was basic but manageable for a short stay. One of the biggest downsides was the lack of internet access in the room. I was told that if I needed Wi-Fi, I’d have to either leave the door open or go sit near the lift area, which was inconvenient and not ideal, especially for privacy or getting work. However the location is very central for food and tourist attraction.

Accommodation value for money

Reception staff very friendly, always with a big smile and helpful. Very clean and spacious. Only setback is you have to go to the 6th floor to collect your hairdryer and flask in order to have hot water for making drinks. Bring own shampoo coz they supply bath foam only.
