Everything was pleasant for the price point. The only thing I’d highlight is the lack of lifts to the floors. If there is no one (or just the girl at the reception), you may need to lug your luggage up/down flight of stairs.

A good stay

My deluxe room is spacious and comfortable, with nice modern furnishing. It has all the amenities a traveler would need (ie kettle, coffee/tea, hair dryer, mini fridge). There are limited council-run public parking spaces at the front and nearby. Do note that the big private parking beside the hotel no longer charges RM8/night as stated in the booking website.
