Staff and location great - overpriced
Pros:

The location is super. Close to everything.

Cons:

The bed was ridiculously small - probably the smallest double bed I’ve ever seen. There was only one socket beside the bed and the other one was beside the front door. No water provided. Taxes are higher than other places and it’s over priced compared to other hotels.

Pros:

The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly and accommodating. When I told them I'm working online, they allocated a room near the server ( next to the reception area) and the wifi connection was awesome. All the cafes and food eateries are within walking distance and parking is within the hotel itself. This has been our 3rd stay at Chulia Heritage.

Cons:

Nothing

I have stayed here for a few times already, and it will definitely be in my list to stay.
Pros:

I like the location; it's very near to a few eateries (just walking distance). They provide free parking space too so it is very convenient, knowing how hard it is to find side parking space in Georgetown. The staff who handled our check in and check out process was very polite, kind, and helpful.

Cons:

Only one think that I wasn't very satisfied. The room was not spacious and soundproof. But we were fine with that.
