The hotel rooms were quite disappointing as they were smelly, dirty, and not soundproof; however, the service was helpful. The location was convenient with easy access to various attractions. The dining experience was below expectations, and the facilities need improvement.

The hotel is not very bad and the guy who helped me with check-in was friendly, but the room had a strong tobacco smell even though they provided a mask with chemicals to mask it. The location is fine, close to the center, but there is a demolition site right in front of the building.

Facilities need an upgrade, and the bathtub is too deep. The mask given in the room to mask the tobacco smell is a good addition.

Upon arrival, we were taken to a stinking and humid room before being repositioned to an old tobacco-smelling room. The cheaper twin room we were given was not ideal for a romantic getaway. Despite efforts to mask the tobacco smell, the experience was unpleasant.

The rooms were tainted with the strong smell of tobacco, requiring us to endure an unpleasant stay. The attempt to mask the odor with chemicals was not very effective.

We opted not to have the hotel breakfast and explored 'Penang breakfast' instead. The dining experience did not align with the price paid.
Facilities

The facilities lack attention to detail, with concerns about cleanliness in the rooms. The condition of the bath tub should be improved. The price paid did not reflect the value received.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and spacious; however, some noise from outside could be heard. The location was convenient, with easy access to attractions, but there was a demolition site nearby. The dining experience was average, and the facilities need some upgrades.

Although the room had a bit of a weird smell at first, our stay turned out to be cozy and comfortable. The service wasn't as friendly as we expected, especially during the evening shift. The location was convenient for exploring different attractions. The dining experience was average, with repetitive food choices. The facilities offered were satisfactory, but there is room for improvement.
