Reviews and Ratings
The hotel met some expectations but fell short in cleanliness and service. The value for money was questionable considering the room conditions and lack of proper amenities. Although efforts were made for sterilization, the overall cleanliness was not up to par.
The hotel is located in a very isolated area, which keeps the room rates affordable. However, cleanliness is not up to par due to its proximity to a recycle hub. On the plus side, it is conveniently situated near my workplace with a strong Wi-Fi signal. Just note that there's a recycle factory nearby, affecting the atmosphere.
The hotel's rooms are spacious but not cleaned properly after upgrading/construction work, with some dirt and spiders present, although a deposit of RM100 is required. The service from the staff was a mix of nice and unfriendly encounters, with instances of forgetfulness regarding requests like housekeeping during check-out. The isolated location offers a cheap room rate, yet cleanliness may be compromised due to proximity to a recycle hub. On the positive side, the strong Wi-Fi signal near the workplace is a plus.
The hotel is conveniently located near the recycle hub and is an affordable option. While cleanliness may not meet high standards, the strong Wi-Fi signal and proximity to the workplace are positives. The staff are a mix of nice and unfriendly individuals. The dining options are limited to Chinese cuisine. Good value for money overall.
The hotel is quite isolated and offers a low room rate, but cleanliness is below expectations with spiders inside. The TV can get boring, and the rooms feel sticky, though spacious. Staff could be nice but lacking in friendliness, and forgetful with requested items during check-out.
