Had to line up for 45 minutes just to check in. Door to kitchen balcony could not close so there was a security issue. Towels were old and worn out, felt more like gunny sacks. Will not consider this place again for future visits.

SHIT hotel I blacklisted
Worst service ever. Official check-in 2pm-7pm but when I checked-in at 5pm, 1 of the 2 room I booked not ready. Booked together but on different floor, absolutely no request was accommodated. Hence We gathered in 1 room first & Receptionist supposed to notify us once the other room is ready but it didn’t happen till I confronted at front desk at 7pm. Cited late checkout @1pm is allowed despite so late checkin. The duty receptionist said he knows nothing about it as the previous lady off duty. Each room booked for 3 person. First room found without towel, safe & TV remote not working. Hotel ran out of toothbrush when I requested for 3rd toothbrush . Didn’t send us hair dryer as requested. Bathroom flooded (slow drainage). Wardrobe handle dropped. I have been travelling for the past 20 over years, this is the worst experience I ever had. MAHKOTA Hotel, I will remember this disappointing name. No apology from anyone of them, don’t even need to talk about refunding. Now let me see what reply HOTEL.com can give, otherwise just switch booking apps I believe.

Well just that i felt the hotel should really go through renovation. It's like going back on time to the 1990's I felt it's okay not too bad just the furniture is just dated. The staff are friendly and helpful.

Worst hotel apartment I've went thru so far. 0 number of towels were given. Room is dirty. Water pressure super slow in one of the toilet and the other room is practically worst than urine water pressure. From level G all the way to the room, the environment is very unpleasant. Room is 6078. Shall not recommend this hotel to other people.

Nice hotel
A bit if a distance from Jonker Street. Walkable when the weather is cooler, but I ended up taking a taxi back and forth as it was too hot to walk in. Very nice room for the price, but everything else there is quite expensive (food etc). Also, the hotel is made up of flats and mine ended up being quite a distance from reception.

Old & Total Lack of Maintainance
Carpark is very clastophobic with tight corners and lack of lighting... near to creepy. We parked at level 1 instead of trying to navigate up the carpark risking scratching our rented car. The main door lock was jammed & looked like it got forced open before with the sides rotted and chipped. Upon entering, we were greeted with a musty moldy smelling room. Floors are clean but all furnishings are mostly in bad condition (ie. moldy, chipped, stained, etc.). We were even afraid of leaning on the balcony railings for fear of it giving way as the metal parts are rusted and cement chipped off. Toilet is cramped with moldy & cracked mirror. The bathtub is stained and chipped. Aircon is so far still working ok but not that cold - with water stains & mold around it and all over the ceilings. What's worst is that I thought the rooms have WIFI, but apparently, no. They only have WIFI at the first floor lobby where groups of people would gather to use their phones. We were only told when we checked in and had to purchase a mobile data card to use our phones in the room. TV is a very vintage 14" box with only 2 channels working over 10+ channels - no cable channels at all. In short, no entertainment in room at all. And room service is not in sync with their room rates too. Food is priced just like 5star hotels where their quality is even less than 1star. The quality of the room is not worth the money saved.

Must read fine print carefully & prepare for less
Mahkota was essentially resort apartment, so don’t expect the decor or facilities to be as hotel. Does not provides amenities like toothbrush. Tap was rusty and comes with yellow water. Last straw was the description given being WiFi is provided, yet it was available only on the first floor (for public) which I could not tap into even when I live on the third level. You need to purchase WiFi separately if you want to have internet access in your own room. Only good point was it’s location. Less than 5 mins walk from lobby to opposite Mahkota parade. Located in the danraran district, so you can get food and to shopping mall easily.

This hotel has to catch up with the surrounding hotels. 1. No shuttle facilities 2. Food wise not very appealing 3. Building very old 4. Walking across to shopping Malls is a dangerous thing. Should have a link bridge to the mall.

2 night stay for family of 4
Upon check in was told free WiFi is only at the lobby! Then don’t state there is WiFi. No breakfast... staff was not even interested to recommend their hotel breakfast. Went up to room the bedsheets had stain... called for assistance. While they rectify the sheets we left. Returned to lose a Tupperware waterbottle. It’s not the cost tt I am annoyed but shows the integrity of the staff. Didn’t have the room made the next day as we wouldn’t want to lose more things. Water from tap was yellow. Hotel is old and run down. Honestly this was my last choice hotel and truly it was disappointing. Never coming back.

Location is great,but truly run down.
I went to this hotel 2 yrs back, it wasn't as bad (nor was is perfect). I specifically chose this hotel for the location, pool/bathtub and 2 room apartment as it was a school holiday. And the children enjoys tub times. However to my disappointment my room's tub didn't work and the water was like tea colour (which agitated my skin due to my eczema). I found those tiny cockroaches in my bathroom and my sister found one in her bed. The sliding door lock didnt function, which is a safety risk especially with young children. Don't even bother with the TV. When I highlighted the situation, the staff gave me another room, which still has problems, poor air conditioning in one room and the tub was leaking onto the floor of the bathroom, even the pool slides were out of order during school holidays. I hope the hotel does something regarding the maintenance of the rooms. The location is great, the size of the room is comfortable for families.However, really need to upkeep the hotel and seriously change the beds. The bed was so hard I couldn't sleep during my stay.

The tap water turns yellow after i turn on the water heater. The water kettle is dirty and smells awful. Booked a room with 1 queen size bed but got 2 single bed put next to each other. The furniture looks old and dated. Definitely not worth its price.

Peak period CNY
Was making reservations for the long weekend of CNY but left with no choice but to stay in Mahkota. True to what was told by friends and family, apartment is old and not up to standard at all. Not worth the price paid for. No free wifi and service staff was uncommendable. Everything needs improvement here. Definitely not coming back.

Not value-for-money stay at the mahkota.
The property is very much run-down. The water from the taps are yellowish in colour and hot water system don't work well. However, location is good and near to eating places and tourist sights. I stayed in a 2-room service apartment, but there were no cooking utensils provided, not even a tea spoon!!!
