The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Cozy Dining Experience

I had a good dinner at the hotel's coffee house, Jala Mas. The cozy environment was perfect for unwinding after a long day, and the food options were reasonably priced. I enjoyed a tasty coffee sandwich and fried noodles, each costing only RM10. The food was delicious, and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality at such low prices.

Refreshing Poolside Relaxation

The hotel features a well-maintained pool that provided a refreshing escape during my stay. I appreciated the ample seating around the pool, which allowed me to relax and enjoy the sun without feeling crowded. It was a peaceful spot to unwind, and I often found I had it to myself!

The hotel is unfortunately not up to par with cleanliness and service standards. Despite a decent room size and location near attractions, my experience was marred by dirty conditions and unhelpful staff. The dining options were unappetizing and the overall atmosphere lacked the expected hospitality. I wouldn't recommend staying here unless significant improvements are made.

The hotel has a charming character, although it's beginning to show its age. I appreciated the spacious and clean rooms, but the check-in process was frustratingly slow. The location is quite central, making it easy to explore nearby attractions. However, the dining experience left much to be desired, particularly at breakfast, which was quite basic. Overall, it’s a decent option but there’s definitely room for improvement.

Overall, my stay at the hotel was decent, with friendly staff and clean, comfortable rooms that have maintained their charm over the years. The buffet breakfast offered a variety of options, although the dining experience could still use some improvement.
