The WiFi is not reliable, the speeds were around 5mbps each time I checked. The room was clean, but there is some noticeable wear that’s not shown in the pictures. Overall, good hotel for the price and very walkable to all of the attractions in Georgetown.

Convenient

It’s a very good location for me to get to the ferry and walking distance to many of the attractions in town. But don’t stay in the room facing the main road especially 1st and 2nd floor. Very noisy all night long from the cars on the road.

Very good hotel with nice bathroom and bedroom Unfortunately the foot ferry from butterworth drops you about a 10 min walk up the road. Be careful of traffic You have to pay for tourist tax so I would advise you to get a receipt for this as I was nearly charged twice

Hotel was across the street from a buss turminal. There was a Free "CAT" buss that circled the George Town area that we used daily. The hotel was located on the mian foad that circled the Panang Island making it easy to go and see everything we wanted. Hotel staff was friendly,wonderful and spoke English with us. They were accomidating when asked for extra towels, ice, etc. Plenty of hot water for showers and room was air conditioned. Very confortable and the price was good--we needed two rooms for the 3 adults.

Overall ok

The room was ok (nice, beautifull and clean). Breakfast menu ok. The location was very strategic, in front of Jeti rapidpenang terminal. One flaw is I felt intimidated when had a breakfast there, because the waitress always keep her eyes on me (I had a breakfast for two days there and I always had the same situation), like she was very insecure with me. What's wrong with me?? 😢

Bad breakfast / No internet/No customer service

When we checked in the lady at reception told us we only had one room booked, when we actually had 2 rooms booked. After some time I told her to check if it was under a different name , which it was I had to suggest this to her , she made no suggestions apart from telling me to contact Expedia as I had booked with them. The rooms given to us were quite small. The internet does not work in the bedrooms therefore you have to be in the lobby, embarrassing with guests from hotel sitting in lobby using the Internet. After a few complaints about the Internet we were moved to the fifth floor as they told us the wifi was better on that floor, BUT IT WAS NOT. Could not be bothered to go up and down to complain about it. The breakfast is very very basic, although the kitchen staff were helpful and made us omelettes on request. If you are a westerner be prepared to have only coffee/tea /toast and eggs, rest is noodles with sauce. Reception staff don't speak good English , we asked the man to tell us the name of the local ferry port he did not know and made no attempt to help with it, and as the Internet did not work we asked if he could order us Grab, like uber, and he had same problem loading the internet, but he made no other attempt to help us to get to the ferry port .

Nice room in convenient location

Well done basic hotel room with great shower facilities. Staff were unhelpful bordering on rude at times. When we arrived there were no towels or toilet paper in room. We alerted the staff to this but had to ask again several hours later. Hotel is very convenient for public transport and tourist attractions. Nazzeera's cafe round the corner is lovely and provides an excellent breakfast for just 10RM compared to the disappointing breakfast at hotel 19.
