Room was simple & was clean. Felt very open but unfortunately there was a leak from the AC + hole in the roof in my room. I just avoided the puddle so it was no biggie to me. The location was conveniently close to the ferry, the jetties, Chulia Street & pretty much all of historic Georgetown (5-15 min walk). Would definitely recommend.

Very good hotel with nice bathroom and bedroom Unfortunately the foot ferry from butterworth drops you about a 10 min walk up the road. Be careful of traffic You have to pay for tourist tax so I would advise you to get a receipt for this as I was nearly charged twice

Convenient

It’s a very good location for me to get to the ferry and walking distance to many of the attractions in town. But don’t stay in the room facing the main road especially 1st and 2nd floor. Very noisy all night long from the cars on the road.

Hotel was across the street from a buss turminal. There was a Free "CAT" buss that circled the George Town area that we used daily. The hotel was located on the mian foad that circled the Panang Island making it easy to go and see everything we wanted. Hotel staff was friendly,wonderful and spoke English with us. They were accomidating when asked for extra towels, ice, etc. Plenty of hot water for showers and room was air conditioned. Very confortable and the price was good--we needed two rooms for the 3 adults.

Correct

Accueil correct, la chambre était confortable sauf au niveau de l’isolation par les fenêtres (sans double vitrage) donnant sut une rue à grande circulation. Nous avons pu changer de chambre sans problème. Petit déjeuner très frugal ! Emplacement correct. Mais l’hôtel dégageait une tristesse, bien que moderne et bien équipé.

Overall ok

The room was ok (nice, beautifull and clean). Breakfast menu ok. The location was very strategic, in front of Jeti rapidpenang terminal. One flaw is I felt intimidated when had a breakfast there, because the waitress always keep her eyes on me (I had a breakfast for two days there and I always had the same situation), like she was very insecure with me. What's wrong with me?? 😢
