    massive room
    great breakfast
    parking situation
    dated furniture

    Loved the massive room with a great city and sea view! Breakfast was awesome too. 😋 Just watch out for the parking situation, it can get tight!

    The room is unclean, especially the toilet and carpet. Lighting in the bathroom was too dim, and it is spooky, the bed has bed mites too. I had a terrible breakfast in the hotel, the meehon and tauhu are rotten! Other food do not seem to be appetizing, better not take their breakfast.

    Location: the hotel was just next door to waterfront and town centre, and nearby shopping mall. A wide range of restaurants to eat close by, like Restoran jj Corner that was only 10 minutes' walk away.

    The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and clean, and had a view over the town.

    Nothing - for the price it was excellent.

    great location
    old furniture

    Great view and friendly staff!

    The room was huge and had an epic view of the city and harbor. Staff were super nice and always ready to help. Loved the nearby restaurant just across the street for late-night bites. The only bummer was the old furniture. It's definitely time for an upgrade. Breakfast could've had more options too!
