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
1
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
1
Several reviewers call it 'value for money' and 'proper hotel' with good staff and rooms for a budget stay, supporting a modest positive score.
Food and Beverage
1
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.

Overall mixed-positive: many 'excellent' and 'recommended' comments balanced by specific negative incidents (cleanliness issues, AC, leaking), leading to a slightly positive overall impression.

Pros:

Nothing.

Cons:

No more free parking. Parking was charged RM5 per exit and needed to be paid at the reception counter. If you pay online the parking rate would be more expensive up to more than RM25 overnight.
However the description for this hotel parking facility as mentioned in the Booking.com website is only RM5 per day. This description should be corrected as RM 5 per EXIT.
