The location was excellent as the hotel is located in the centre of Penang, accessibility to all tourist sights are within easy reach.

The furniture n carpet was quite old and worn out. The pillows were not firm enough, too low thus can't support my neck which lead to a stiff neck. The shower not powerful enough on the jet setting.

It is located near the good street food area and shopping area. Very convenience!

Not sure why the trader's check in staff was reluctant to check me in as i used my husband to book. He is not excited that my husband didnt check in with me although i tried showing him my booking reference number with my same credit card number written. Very suspicious of my booking validity...

The spacious Deluxe King Room offered a comfortable stay, although the soft pillows weren't to my liking. The refurbished areas felt nice, but the gym and pool needed updates to match the overall quality.

Nice hotel. Very convenient. Pranging Mall and 1st Avenue are just next to the hotel. The staff are friendly. I booked 2 rooms and requested for a connecting room but since the hotel is fully booked, we couldn't get a connecting room but the staff managed to get us 2 rooms next to each other. Easy access. About 15 minutes from Penang bridge. I am very pleased with the free internet connection given in the room.

Decent stay with great breakfast

Location in George Town is super convenient. Breakfast had a good variety and was actually quite tasty. The room was soundproof, which helped block out any noise from outside. Only downside was that the wooden floors made it a little noisy from upstairs. Not a bad choice!
