We had a lovely place with all the convenience of home. It even had a washer n dryer. Great location. Friendly and helpful staff. Would recommend to friends
It is good for family stay. Overall is clean. Perhaps, a bit noisy during the day as it is next to the road. Nevertheless, as a tourist point of view, you will be going out and this does not affect you that much.
Our favourite accommodation from our trip in Malaysia and Singapore. Excellent customer service from start to finish, daily housekeeping and replenishment of water, toiletries etc. Our apartment was very spacious, clean and comfortable, great AC, fantastic shower, use of washing machine. Although the hotel is right next to a fairly busy, but small road, later on at night the noise is no issue whatsoever and as a light sleeper I had no trouble sleeping! Would highly recommend, good value for money and would return again in the future. Thanks for an amazing stay!
Likes : accessibility to nearby food stalls like wet market n famous yam rice coffee shop. 10min.walk to Pragin mall and 1st ave mall.
Interior design n lighting design ia good except mirror in room not brightly lit for doing make up.
Whenever we book grab it takes around 5-10min.
Dislike. Phone cannot access reception. Washing machine takes a v long time to wash n spin dry. Tv has v limited chinese tv channels
Daytime is all malay PROGRAMs n night time only 1 channel with chinese or Korean tv program.
Will b better to have another wc since there are 4 staying together. All bedroom should have a tv n a big mirror well lit.
Exceeded our expectations. Hotel is spacious, clean and modern. Has all the amenities that one may need including an induction stove, microwave oven, washing machine etc. Location is quite good as well - walking distance to 1st Avenue mall, Komtar, Cecil Street hawker centre, Hin Bus Depot.
Pros:
- Spacious & clean, modernly decorated
- All amenities provided
- Housekeeping available
- Comfortable
- Easy pin access
- Well equipped kitchen
Cons:
Intermittent wifi
Coarse bedsheets
Centipede scare in the bathroom on the 1st night
Absolutely fantastic little apartment. We are two people, each had our own room, and the rest of the apartment was perfectly decorated and completely spotless. First thing we did was a load of laundry (and thank goodness they had laundry soap there!). The entire place is modern with western standards. Location is an easy walk to Georgetown, a couple blocks from the mall, and generally well appointed. Check-in was a breeze once we realized we needed to call, and they were kind enough to let us in to the apartment earlier than the stated check-in time. Would definitely recommend!

Great for family
A great hotel for family of four or five. However may be a little noisy as hotel is near the road.
everything are good. Suitable place to stay especially if you bring family on holiday. Room big and pleasant stay.Fyi~ just for check in it will be quite confusing, but before you check in make sure you call the hotel first. Then direct come to the hotel for check in and staff will be waiting for guest upon arrival🤗
