Excellent location with several eating places nearby. Staff was pleasant and helpful. The hotel is getting old but everything still worked howbeit noisily (toilet).

We paid higher price to book a Non Smoking room for 2 nights stay from Hotel.com. when we arrived the hotel , staff told us Non smoking all not available , only left Smoking Room, and if we want to have None Smoking Room, we need to add another RM 9.00. so no choice we have to do so and paid for 1 day stay for the next day with Non Smoking Room when is available.

The uncle who checked us in wasn't very friendly and the flooring of the room felt very sticky. The air conditioning did not seems to be working very well, felt stuffy for the whole night and the pillows are super flat. Seems the room is above the coffee shop, can vividly hear people talking.
