整体酒店很好，就是隔音设备问题。还有就是没有私人停车位和早餐。只有付费的停车位，即便你是住酒店也要付费一次RM 10.60
Pros:

酒店设备很好，有3M水机提供，热水器很烫洗澡很舒服，酒店干净，前台很有礼貌，地理位置也很好找。

Cons:

房间有点小，隔音非常不好。隔壁房洗澡都能听得见。还有酒店上写有私人停车位去到却是要自行付费的酒店后面空地，每出去一次要RM 10.60，非常昂贵。即便要付费，住该酒店不是应该免费的吗？然后酒店选项写包含早餐，早餐只不过就是酒店后面kenny kills cafe的套餐早餐并没有自助，这点我觉得酒店没有申明标准我觉得很不理解。

A quirky Psychodelic Hotel with good location
Pros:

Its proximity to the conference venue that I attended

Cons:

I like the fact that the Hotel is quirky, but it needs to be functional as well, it’s clearly aimed at young people who don’t mind that the windows are see through, the shower leaks or that there is no bottled water.

Disappointed
Pros:

Decent location but still a bit of walking to the heart of George Town heritage area. Nice colorful painted walls.

Cons:

All the corridors didn’t have air conditioning switched on, it’s so hot, humid and a suffering to walk to the rooms in the day time. Not many staff and I didn’t feel a warm customer service typical of a good hotel at this price point. Not sure why it’s rated by Michelin!

Pros:

We had a wonderful stay! The location is perfect for getting around, and the overall atmosphere is so cozy and inviting. What really stood out, though, was the team—the staff are genuinely kind and went out of their way to be helpful. It felt like a home away from home.

Nicely designed hotel with friendly staff
Pros:

Nicely designed hotel with friendly staff. Room is clean and we get free room upgrade.

Cons:

The pool water was super cold even in the afternoon maybe because it’s indoor.

Pros:

The room was good and nice.

Cons:

As i am traveling for work, we requested that the breakfast would be serve earlier. Staff was able to accommodate us but at 0600hrs nobody came up and hand over our breakfast. My coworker had to go down and took it. And the food was prepared last night as it was cold.

Coole Unterkunft, Zimmer sind ringhörig.
Pros:

Coole, hype Unterkunft.

Cons:

Die Waschmaschinen waren nicht sauber. Zimmer viel zu ringhörig. Club nebenan, und vom Zimmernachbar oben habe ich gehört wie er bis um 1 Uhr nachts Möbel oder sonst was herumgeschobenen hat.
