family vacay

its a nice hotel. the price is cheap (less than rm200/night). no free breakfast is fine becoz its located near to (walking distance) mamak restaurant. mydin is also nearby. the room is spacious, we love it! but i'm not sure why they placed the fridge inside the toilet (its a bit awkward for us). kettle is clean! room is fine, except that there is a lot of hair under the bed when we checked in (we had to moved the bed bcoz my kids toy rolled under). we had a nice stay at the hotel. and wil definitely come again. 😁

Great customer service!

The best thing about this hotel is the staff. I forgetfully left my phone in the room after checking out; 1 hour later when I showed up, the receptionist just handed me my phone. Thank you to the honest and great staff! The room was big and clean, amenities were great , and the breakfast buffet was good.

Verified traveler

4/5 is a rating that is too much for this hotel (bunch of lazy reviewers or possible never experienced good boutique hotel ever). In my opinion, the bèst could be 2 or 3. The towels werent clean, the beds werent comfortable, and to my biggest disappointment, the room was warm despite leaving the aircond temperature at the lowest and at full fan speed. A quick checked revealed the split unit had it filter panel clogged. Breakfast was tasty, but variety was poor. So is this place a value for money? Top up another RM20 and you will definitely get better value. Far better than what i experienced during my stay. I am just being honest so that the hotel management will not take lazy reviews for granted, and continue to live in the bubble that what they serve is a "value meal". Please improve.
