For a 1 bedroom unit, with living room and kitchenette, price was relatively cheap. Bathtub was ok too. But the bed and pillows were not great. Place a bit old. Aircon in the living room was not working. Good enough to just stay for the night.

Not valued for money , read before you stay
Went to the hotel for our anniversary stay and check with the hotel management if there was any hotel upgrade available after checking they say that we will need to pay extra $30sgd just for the upgrade. During check in, we shown them that we already paid for the room via Hotel.com app. However they insist for more than 3 times that we did not paid for the room and even though we show them the app and receipt, their system show none until one of them check 'properly' and say payment is done. No apologies was given by them and they just continue as per normal. The room TV was spoilt and they change the whole wall TV for us and yet the new TV couldn't change any channel so end up not using the TV. The bathroom was a little dirty and murky in color, there was no air circulation vent in the toilet so the air smells stale. Parking was free and there was a guard sitting near the entry/exit so parking near the guard is quite safe. Location is near to various amenities like family mart and 7-11. Breakfast was okay but not much selection. Overall, not that value for my money.

After more than 2 years of MCO, the bed is horrible with bed bugs and shower control not working well. Unable to set to rain shower making bathing a bad experience after a hot day at Malacca.

Eerie Walkway, Terrible Room Facilities
A very rundown hotel I can said. I checked out, after 15 mins I have checked in. Only the lobby is decorated with quite classy design. While the rest, the nightmare started when we reached our hotel's room level. The whole walkway is freaking dark with only one light I guess. So eerie like you are in those haunted movie scene. When we entered the hotel room, our jaws near dropped on the floor. Dusty floor with black stain everywhere, same goes to the toilet. I just wonder did housekeeping really clean the room properly. Poor TV reception showed only a white snow dots with few channels available. Jesus christ. Please at least make over your hotel rooms to make it more approchable and matched with the price offered. BTW, its just my 2 cents of opinion.
