I just finished my trip to Penang and I was very pleased with the quality of the room and the level of service I received from all of the staff. Jayson at the concierge desk was particularly helpful to adjust my plans on Sunday when the Penang Hill train was down for maintenance. I took the Botanical Garden truck ride up instead and I really loved visiting The Habitat on Penang Hill. It was one of my favorite parts of the trip.
