Very good

The room was clean. The only thing that I wasn't happy about is the bed. It was too hard and the pillow was extremely soft. I was unable to sleep. But other than that, it was a good stay.
Location is very good, near to komtar. The new lane food street is jusr a street away with lots of famous street foods. Many food courts along the main streers too. Only that the towels used in the hotel is not absorbent. No toothbrush is supplied.
hotel it's ok for sleep room quiet small but bed still comfortable . aircon was cool you don't need to worry (sometimes it's too cool i think lol) this is not first time for me here . wifi was changed last time too slow now wifi is faster than before . around hotel got a lot thing for you to eat .

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Budget lodging with minimal amenities.
Good reception staff, close to Georgetown sites by walking and close to transit hub. However, no cable tv, no face towels, or face soap; room cleaned only if card placed on door handle to request it. Small room, size of a cruise ship cabin. It was annoying that staff would knock on door in the mid afternoon to ask if there is any garbage needing to be disposed.
The hotel is great value. Room was well equipped, clean and in good condition. We booked a room with a window which was worth the extra money. Hotel location is fairly good, a bit of a walk to the historic centre of town, but there is a good bus service and malls / restaurants nearby.
A reasonably new hotel. Room is compact but fine. It's clean. Bed is firm. Location near to food and shops and within walking distance to a number of tourist destinations. I booked the room for 2 persons but only one toothbrush given. I asked Housekeeping and they say only one is given and if needed extra to request from Reception. Also noted no soap provided. Again asked Housekeeping they do not seem to know what I am talking about. Asked reception, they confirmed no soap provided so you need to bring your own soap or wash with either shampoo or body wash.

It was my short stay, it location smack right on George Town with all the hawkers stall around. Worth the money, room is clean overall is very good.
Clean budget hotel. Very convenient. Plenty of street food and eateries along the main road. Walking distance to bus terminal KOMTAR where there are buses to airport and all other areas in Penang.
