An excellent 5 night stay. Ideally located, accessible to discovering Georgetown very easily. Across the road from the free shuttle bus, and a very good food court. Our room was great, plenty of room and well maintained, and a lovely view. Filtered drinking water on all floors was ideal. The buffet breakfast was very good. All staff in reception, housekeeping and breakfast area very friendly and hospitable.
