Nice comfortable bed

Very comfortable bed. Love it. The only setback was a WiFi. You can’t use it in the bedroom, but when you try to use it in the lobby area, it is virtually no speed at all. Please improve on that. It’s very important.

Great location, just one block away from the famous teochew cendol. Many local street food nearby. Komtar and shopping malls are only few minutes walking distance away. The dorm room is very comfortable. 2 out 3 water heater is not functional in the public washroom, this is the only bad comment from me. The breakfast served is very simple, and it is cold. Hotel staff should do something to keep the breakfast warm.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Never stay here.

We went for location & that’s the only good thing about Apollo Inn. The staff were unhappy & unhelpful. Three lights were either not going or flashed all night in our room after being turned off. Wifi did not work. We had trouble getting the hot water to stay hot. At midnight we finally had maintenance to disengage the flashing bulbs. When I asked for money back or discount they were absolutely disinterested & couldn’t care less. Very grateful we only booked one night. Never stay there!!
