Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a nice and comfortable stay with great nearby coffee options, although the noise from the compressor can be disturbing at times. The location is super convenient for exploring food places, but the dining experience may not meet your expectations.
The hotel is strategically located in the heart of Georgetown, offering easy access to shopping areas, restaurants, and major tourist attractions. The rooms provide excellent privacy for families with two separate shower areas, ideal for late-night comfort while facing the impressive Komtar tower. However, the dining experience falls short, lacking variety and value for money with limited breakfast options. The service is efficient, and the hotel's facilities are well-maintained, enhancing the overall stay with convenience and comfort.
The hotel's location is incredibly convenient, with shopping malls like 1st Avenue and Komtar nearby. The rooms were very comfortable and well-equipped with conveniences like an oven. However, the absence of central air conditioning made the rooms hot at times. The breakfast choices were limited and not very satisfying, leading to a lackluster dining experience.
