I had booked this hotel, due to location near Gleneagles, and price... and I must say, you get what you pay for, a little more and you get so much more in Georgetown. This hotel have seen better days, I took like forever to check in.. even only me in to check in. The room was ground floor, old style, but okay and clean. The TV signal was not working, also many issues with the Wifi, and when ask in the front desk, no answer or solution when it will be fixed. Next time in Penang, I will find other hotel for my stay.

Budget hotel

Det et gammelt hotel, hvilket det bærer præg af. Værelset var meget rummeligt, vi var 4 i 6 personers værelset. Det var rent på værelset. Personalet var venligt. Morgenmad var dårlig og bestod af røræg eller spejlæg, små pølser, hashbrown eller nudler, toast med smør, posh (grød), appelsinsaftevand (ikke juice), kaffe/The. Fin, ren pool åben 7-19. Poolhåndklæder udleveres. Selvom der står, man ikke må bade i tøj der ikke er af spandex, overholdes dette ikke af alle muslimske gæster, men hotellet påtaler det ikke. Masser af mulighed for lokal billig god mad i området. Der ligger et Giant supermarked ca 500 M fra hotellet.

Apparently the room allocated to me was vacant for few days. The housekeeping did not check whether the condition of the bedsheets. I checked in and found lizards faeces on it. Called housekeeping and was changed after waiting for more than 15 mind. The locality of the hotel is great and easily accessible to food.

Great hotel in this price range. Property is slightly worn but you are not paying luxury prices. Staff are really friendly and let me check in super early after a night flight arrival. Breakfast surprisingly decent. Pool is fantastic! Clean and well taken care of, feels almost secluded given the city location. Convenience stores, cafes and street food nearby.

Worth the money

Worth for money , walking distance for food . Main entrance at the side road . Hotel should consider the car park facing main road is for staff parking , else is too empty . It looks so "dead" or abandoned from the main road .... tv image not that clear ....
