Ok hotel for the price

The hotel itself is very modern and located very centrally. However the walls are paper thin which makes for an extremely noisy stay. They also make you leave a 50RM deposit which is very annoying as i was flying to Singapore after my stay resulting in having a 50RM note in my wallet on the way to the airport.

It is ideally located, making visits to attractions relatively easy. The staff is friendly and helpful. The breakfast is substantial and it is the same everyday. Light sleepers may have difficulty sleeping as throbbing music could be heard nightly from 9pm till 3 am.

Convenient location and great price

Hotel is established less than a year and so the condition and upkeep is excellent. Place is conveniently opposite Komtar for easy travelling around Pulau Penang. However, while not the fault of the hotel, there will be mosque prayers and the occasional late night karaoke being played loudly elsewhere
