Hotel was in good location, Was clean Good shower Wifi was terrible TV was probably false advertising, said it had satellite channels. Not sure in what room as mine only had 3 different channels.

Could be better.

I enjoyed: 1. The service. Requests were attended to quite immediately by the staffs. 2. The location. It is great!. This hotel is situated in walking distance to convenient stores and restaurants. So looking for food it not at all any issue. 3. The space. It is worth the money (but could have been better if things listed below are improved). The room is huge for the price one is paying. 4. Amenities - fridge, water heater, iron, tv etc. The things to improve: 1. The windows in the bathroom were difficult to close - smell from the restaurant enters the room via the bathroom. 2. The bottom of the bed was not clean for (i guess) a long time. It was full of dust and spider web. Will i re-visit? Yes. However, if things are not fixed, then my next stay could be my last in this hotel.

The location of the hotel is great. It's close to a wide range of food and massage places.The town is pretty small so you can get to anywhere you want with a ten to fifteen minute walk. The property itself is generally clean - while the lobby looks great, the interior could use a bit of sprucing up. The room I got was large, although maintenance could be slightly improved especially with the toilet. Otherwise though, the room was comfortable. Amenities like toothbrushes and shampoo were available which can't be taken for granted with rooms of this budget.

夾在海鮮餐廳的中間，太吵雜了。要押金及每日10元馬幣，應該在訂購時，入帳待退房時在退押金。

刮鬍刀不好用，咖啡包沒有每天給，浴室熱水不穩定，洗手檯水龍頭壞了鬆動。人住才收押金及稅金，不適宜。⋯⋯⋯⋯
