The location is not updated. I was informed that they have shifted to Mansion One when I called up upon check-in. And the manager promised this is much better than the previous one. This wasn't the main concern anyway. What disappointed us was the room condition, which was totally different from what was advertised. There wasn't lighting in the room. I requested to change to another room yet was informed than all rooms are fully booked. They sent a maintenance guy to change lightbulb. However the entire room was still very dim as it only come with one warm light bulb, while the other side haa only wires hanging over the ceiling without any lightinh point at all. What worsen my experience was the cleanliness of the place. The floor was like never been mopped, it was so sticky that I gotta put up my own slippers indoor. The bed sheet was stained, toilet roll was wet, cleaning tools were left everywhere in the room, TV wasn't working at all, aircon was super noisy. Gosh this is never up to the standard of a hotel, not even a home stay. At that moment, I felt like being cheated and called up the manager again and he said there's nothing much he can do but offered to change to a better room the next night. Well we have to take it, praying hard that the next night we can get a better room. Fortunately we were really given a better room on the next day. This room is much greater, yet the TV was still not working. Whatever it is, I'm not going to return to this place anymore.

NEVER BOOK THIS PLACE. I booked H residence because I wanted the gym facilities. Was told H residence was closed down permanently and I had to go to Mansion One. IF I WANTED Mansion One, I would have booked Mansion One! To make matters worse, I had the worst check-in experience ever - called the person in charge for check-in, he asked me to wait for 5 mins. 20 mins later and after 3 phones calls, the guy on the phone asked me to cancel the booking if I can’t wait. I did not want to take the risk of Expedia not giving me the refund so I waited for the guy finally to finally come and brought me to office on the 18th floor and waited for another 20 mins. It was already 5:45pm and my room was not cleaned up yet and I had to stand outside waiting for the staff to make up the room. The only consolation was instead of one room, they gave me an one bedroom apartment.

fantastic view but just "OK" only...
when I used this place 2 years go the place was great! everything works and still functional. this year the place looks jaded and used. Much like a school hotel fell. Gate Security and Staff were friendly but the place is bare bones and shower barely makes it.

Great for family vacation
The room is big as they can fill 4 adults since the room has 2 queen bed. Also the toilet was nice as they have a bathtub and good condition shower and other utilities. The view are just nice, the residence just a part away from the gurney and the view we can see from are more to the sea. You can enjoy living here for the vacation, it is because the residence is near to every penang heritage. Thumbs up.

Nice room but disappointed on facilities
My first filter before I chose this service apartment was whether they have pool or not as I want to treat my friend's children for a good swimming but to my disappointment we cannot use the pool facility because we are homestay user. I believe the owner should not advertise something they cannot provide and we feel tricked. We seriously did not mind sharing rooms in one big apartment however at night, there are no lights at the parking area as we are going in to our apartment. But, we should give credit to the nice clean hello kitty theme room with ample of space.

Cosy and good location
Do not expect for normal hotel service. Is a big area and roomy for children to run about and be prepare to share the unit with other travellers. If you are just looking for a stay over the night and do not like to pay for more, this is the right place. Cosy and simple set up, staff is friendly and try their best to make our stay as pleasant as possible. Special thanks to Sasi for her diligent assistant. Good job Sasi.
