我们喜爱酒店的独特设计，让人感觉舒适。清洁的客房，和善的服务人员。靠近市区，行走方便。 我们住的是家庭房间，唯一美足不足的是客房里没有煮热水器，要到外面去拿烧水，也只提供杯子而不是较大的容器， 总的来说这是间值得推荐的酒店。

Nice hipster and minimalist hotel. Hotel staff is friendly and check in was efficient. However, we can hear the noise from the street during 12-2am. Floor in the room is a bit dirty. Overall experience is good.

Central and well-kept

This central hotel stands out with its immaculate white facade. I was impressed by the condition of the hotel and of the room, it is very well-kept. Georgetown within walking distance and 24-hour convenience stores nearby. Staff is friendly and helpful. I enjoyed the stay!

highly NOT recommended.

I’d usually just book the 1st night or 2, to see if I like the hotel. If I do, I’d rebook. If not, then I’d go somewhere else. And I was glad that I only booked for 2 nights at this hotel. The standard room was VERY tiny, even for a solo man like me. You can’t turn around and not having the door hit you in the face. There was no space to put the luggage, left alone to unpack. I talked with the front desk if they could give me a bigger room. If they do then I’d book for the rest of my stay, total 5 nights. But they refused. I got no choice but to pay extra to get the bigger room. They ran my credit card and it went through. They proceded writing down my credit card info. on the signed receipt but I stopped them, to protect my privacy. They also demand CASH for hotel tax. Now a day, all hotels accept credit card for all transaction. Even at the smallest town in Malaysia like Miri. The bigger room was right next to the sidewalk. I can hear traffic noise, people talking/walking on the sidewalk. It was hard to get any rest. All the rooms are BARE. They only offer toothbrush and bottles water, that’s it. Don’t expect, cotton stick, lotion, hand soap, tissue and even down to the basic like a glass for drinking water. They are really trying everything and anything save the cost and to make money, to the point that it is really uncomfortable for travellers.

Negatives: We stayed in a family room for 3 persons. Shower area has no barricade to prevent floor in the whole bathroom area from getting wet. No hooks to hang towels & clothes in bathroom area - no privacy for changing clothes. We had to dress in the bedroom. Positives: 5 min walk to the Cheong Fatt Tze Blue Mansion. Walking distance to the stop for Hop On Hop off bus. Available parking opposite the hotel for $6 per day & a refundable deposit of $50 after you return the parking access card. Reception staff friendly & gave recommendations for nearby eateries.

Just right for the need.

It's modern, clean and very small room. Perfect for a solo traveller. A couple could stay there but they really have to be close. Think of it as almost a cabin hotel you can stand up, with a queen sized bed, and private bathroom. There are no dressers or closet, just 2 coat hangers on the wall. I liked it.

Good location hotel but noisy and poor wifi

The rooms sound proofing is quite poor and is not good for light sleeper. Wifi is not working most of the time. Staff are very helpful and helped us change to a quieter room from the original one facing the road.
