Mixed signals: many reviews call rooms 'clean' and 'very clean', but several report dusty rooms, smelly/toilet issues and inconsistent housekeeping (no daily cleaning, towels not changed).
Service

Generally positive: multiple comments praise helpful and good staff/reception (e.g., 'receptionist nuhman is very helpful', 'well run, good staff'), though a few complaints about slow responses to issues.
Location
1
Strong positive consensus: repeatedly noted as near MRT/LRT, central, close to restaurants and easy to find; location and parking mentioned as advantages.
Room Quality
1
Mixed to negative: rooms described as spacious and comfortable but several reports of poor AC (not cold/noisy), leaking during rain, blocked toilets and occasional maintenance issues (TV not working, hole in door).
Amenities

Some amenities available (parking, fruit water) but multiple lacks noted: no slippers, limited toilet paper, no mineral water, Wi‑Fi/TV outages and breakfast availability issues.
Value for Money

Food and Beverage

Limited mentions: breakfast is sometimes included but also 'hard to find breakfast' on Sundays; nearby halal restaurants noted. Overall neutral due to mixed feedback and few details.

The service was disappointing. I wouldn’t choose to stay here again.
Pros:

After staying there, I can honestly say there wasn’t much I liked about it.

Cons:

1. The front desk staff were not friendly.
2. When we entered our room, there were no towels provided. We checked in at 4:15 p.m. and requested towels immediately. The front desk staff told us we would only receive them at around 7:00 p.m. because they were short-staffed. He promised to deliver them earlier, but that promise was not kept. We eventually received the towels at 7:00 p.m.
3. The room was booked for two people, but only one hanger was available
