Decent basic hotel
"Decent basic hotel with convenient location. Kinda dated but generally clean. Will be better if water dispenser for hot/cold water can be available at every level, rather than level 2 alone."

Love the historical town, the street arts, food hawker stalls - plenty of choices to eat, everything was walkable distance. Love the history of the green and blue mansion. The blue mansion was so gorgeous! Liked Little India and Chinatown.
