The Sunway was okay for a few nights. Older and clean. Showing signs of wear. Nice pool. The front desk, concierge, housekeeping and staff are all friendly and very helpful. The breakfast buffet is not great. It does not seem clean and or well managed. I booked this hotel based on other reviews. And the area around the hotel is noisey at night.

Friendly and helpful staff. Clean, comfortable room. There are lots of restaurants just steps outside of this hotel including half block of food stalls on street at night. This hotel also offers free shuttle to few local attractions from Friday to Sunday (need to book in advance). I will definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay here! We were able to check in early, provided with a welcoming gift, and throughout our stay all staff were accommodating. Our room was very spacious for 3 adults and had many toiletries. The bedding was quite comfortable. Continental breakfast buffet was quite limited for western food expect more Asian cuisine. Alwi always had a smile and was very helpful during breakfast time.
