Lack of amenities
I guess the hotel doesn’t provide any bathrobe for the guest. No toothbrush or other toiletries provided. As a impromptu traveler, this a major minus for me.
I arrived early, checked in, door didnt close properly, had to be forced closed. aircon was on 18, felt like 30deg on the room and unable to connect to wifi. Complained, was put in to 2 more different rooms and told internet definitely worked in last room, No good, aircon not working properly and no wifi. Checked out.

If you are after fried kway teow the best place to go is the coffee shop opposite Lorong Kinta on Macalister Road. This hotel is on Lorong Kinta
There is nothing I like about this hotel.
The room bed sheet looks dirty and old, including the pillows cases. The bath towels are old and worn, requested a change but no action. The toilet is in odd shape. The shower instant heater is noisy when water is turned on. The water pressure is low. The toilet exhaust fan is noisy. The room aircon not operating efficiently and noisy. No sleepers available. There are ants in the room and toilet. No proper vanity top in the toilet. During booking it promised that Deluxe room has city view, but I only seen roof tops of buildings. My room is on level 3. During booking I request a room on the higher floor but was not allotted. Checking in at reception was slow even though there was no other guest. Very poor WiFi connection, slow and unstable.
Wasn’t the best of starts. Checked in to 2 rooms to find that in room 1, the telephone wasn’t working (the phone to socket had snapped) and the safe wasn’t working. The safe in room 2 wasn’t reset and so couldn’t be used either. We reported them and were told they would be fixed in the morning. These were rectified in the morning after one of us had gone downstairs to ask the receptionist to come to the room to look at the items.
The air conditioner was quite noisy as was the water heater which emitted quite a loud whine whenever used. The splash guard in the toilet was too small and allowed water all over. This was obviously the splash guard when there was a bath tub in there but the tub has since been taken out. The guard was adequate when the tub was there but not now when not.
The in room wifi never worked during our 5 day stay. We kept being told it would be fixed the next day. The lobby wifi did work on the first day but thereafter slowed to being usable.
The location of the hotel was excellent, however. It was within walking distance to just about anywhere in Georgetown and just across the road from the New Lane hawkers, making it very convenient to get dinner. Breakfast at the hotel was also above average.
