I demand one day refund! I only stayed one night & had to leave. That room was toxic !

沒有電梯要自己搬行李爬樓梯

房間很小,擺張雙人床後走道連行李箱到過不去,沒有電梯,晚上斷電兩次,洗澡時要注意水龍頭,因為有三個出水口,廁所的門拉一拉就掉了,雖然不收稅金,押金20馬幣,但是住的很不開心....

窓も無く狭すぎて気が狂いそうになった。外には気を静める所も無く、ホテルの外の椅子にすわっていたが、ここでも蚊に食われてたまらない。閉所恐怖症気味の人は絶対泊まってはいけない。コーヒーカップの近くにゴキブリが来て、飲む気がうせた。トイレットペーパーも少ししか設置していないので、シャワーで身体を洗うと付近が水浸しになり、気持ちが沈む。

Convenient stay for early flight

The hotel is close to the airport which takes less than 10 minutes, so it is very suitable for one night stay, though cleanliness of the toilet has to improve.... Take a grab is much cheaper than a taxi for going to airport!

空港から近いホテル

空港から徒歩20分程度でホテルに着きます。 私が滞在していた時は、宿泊者は主にバイカーでした。部屋の快適度はシングルで宿泊したので、ちょっと狭い気がしましたが、ひとり旅で来ていたので、それ程、不便ではないです。 ジョージタウンまでは、バス停が近くにあったので、バスで行くことができ、利便性はあります。

ペナン国際空港まで近い!

早朝の飛行機に乗るので、寝るだけのために泊まりました。ホットシャワーは問題なく使えます。狭いですが、寝るだけには充分!少し虫がいたりしますが、値段相応ですね。空港まで15〜20分くらいです。

Handy for the airport.

Very small room without a window, but it was clean and modern. Not much in the area, but a few nice food stalls in the street for dinner. Very handy budget option near the airport if you're in transit.

Adequate and trouble free

A good hotel for short stay, particularly when waiting for connecting flights. Fair and reasonable in every way. Nothing outstanding though. No lift. Going up with heavy bags may be a little challenging, but they have bell persons to help.
