Comfortable and great location
The toilet was clean and the beds were really comfy. Nice window view of the sea of Penang. The location is also near to Chulia Street for the night streets/cafes/bars. Staff were really helpful and friendly as well.
Toilet bath shampoo and body soap smelled a little strange and room service did not replace them.

Would consider again
The staff are great. I lost count of the number of issues I had, but they tried their best to help me and make me feel welcomed / comfortable. Special shoutout to Michael for going above and beyond! The hotel is very close to lots of major sites, and the room was spacious.
Firstly, if you are staying at the front of the building, be prepared for noise all night. Bring ear-plugs. If it's not the music, it's the birds chirping or cars zooming down! Very very noisy!! The internet connection in the higher levels didn't work for me (level 6). So I was moved to a lower level, but then this didn't help my noise issue, as I was closer to the street (level 2). I also had a number of things broken in my room. The staff fixed as many as possible, and as I was only there two nights, I tried to just get on with it.

Ne vaut pas son prix
Le réceptionniste du soir est vraiment sympa. L’emplacement
Les femmes du petit déjeuner sont vraiment désagréable , j’étais devant elle pour lui demander des œufs et elle faisait comme si elle m’entendait pas pourtant il n’y avait que nous. Puis c’est sa collègue qui est arrivée pour me demander si j’avais besoin d’aide. Le petit déjeuner très pauvre , a 9h30 le biffet est déjà plié et quand il n’y a pas beaucoup de client il n’y a pas de buffet du tout. La chambre est totalement vide, il y a un lit, un miroir, une petite table est une tv sans satellite.

Good location but need to bear with the noise.
The location is excellent in term of travelling to places of interest. There is also a free CAT bus stop just outside the hotel. The hotel rooms are not very sound proof. There is a mosque close by. You will be awakened very early in the morning by the mosque. In addition there is singing at the Red Garden Food Paradise which is behind the hotel. The singing can be heard in the room till late night.
The Wifi in the hotel is not strong. There is a stream of ants coming into the toilet. I asked the cleaner to spray insecticide and he sprayed deordourizer instead. I had to kill the ants myself every now and then with tissue papers.
