Enjoyable
Pros:

Good location for food and a look into the life of real Penang’s.
Clean and comfortable. Aircon worked well.
Staff was polite and friendly.

Cons:

The Nescafé sachets.
Although freshly brewed coffee was provided 24-7 in the common lounge, it would have been nice to be able to brew local coffee bags in the room.

Great!
Pros:

- The facility is good: the room itself is nice (spacious, has cloth rack and hangers), they also have swimming pool and workout room

- The location is good: though not at the center of George Town, there are Hawker Stalls nearby (3 minute walk) and a big mall (7-10 minutes walk). The area is generally quiet but a temple nearby (大伯公廟）happened to hold celebration while we were there

- They provide free coffee and shuttle, which is nice. But for flexibility, I guess it’s more convenient to take a Grab since it’s not expensive

- The staff is helpful and friendly

Cons:

Before getting there, they send messages via booking to ask us fill in checking form but the buttons in the email didn’t work, so we couldn’t fill in in advance but did it on the spot. It doesn’t bother that much just a minor thing that can be improved

Unforgettable stay. We’ll be hurrying back soon.
Pros:

This was a great location. 20 minute walk or 5 minute drive to all the tourist sites. A lovely indoor pool which our kids loved. Lovely rooms and the staff were great. Loved how they kept the traditional George Town look on the outside.

Cons:

Nothing.
