Picked this hotel because of the Southern location. New hotel but poor maintenance. Had to call front desk for toilet paper holder and fridge. Both missing from my room 427. Halfway through my shower, hot water stopped flowing. Basement sheltered carpark not open for use, had to park in their open air carpark. Food courts nearby. Pleasant staff.

Small hotel located in Gelugor, almost right next to USM. Plenty of eateries with different cuisines (fast food to Chinese to mamak to Malay to other Asian). Lotus's (formerly Tesco) is just next door. Parking is available and complimentary for hotel guests. Room itself is good size. Bathroom also good. Water pressure was excellent. Comfortable bed and pillows. Amenities were basic but adequate. Housekeeping was efficient. Ask for a quiet room. Check-in and check-out were a breeze. A refundable deposit in cash of RM100 is required for the room and another RM20 for each key card. It was a good stay.

Stayed there with my family for 2 nights. It was convenient: near USM, near TESCO, CHEAP. The services were great and the room was comfortable. However, the ventilation for the room was not okay as there were no windows in my room. I think it is suitable for business trip.

The hotel is clean but small. It’s close to the airport especially when need a place to stay when you need to fly out the next morning or if you are coming from the highlands by bus and need a place to stay to catch a flight the next morning for Langkawi the next day.
