Pros:

Location very good

Cons:

The Piilows , quilt and towels are very old and should be replaced with new ones. Look like not clean. The door locks are somewhat broken and there is no sense of security.

schönes Altstadt Hotel
Pros:

Das Hotel liegt in der Altstadt in einer Parallelstraße zur Jonker Street. Zu Fuß sind es nur ca. 2-3 Minuten zur Jonker Street, zum Fluss Ufer mit vielen Restaurants, zum Hard Rock Cafe oder zum roten Platz.
Wir hatten das Zimmer direkt über dem Eingang zur Straße hin und haben super gut geschlafen.
Man hört zwar, wenn mal ein Motorrad vorbei knattert, das hat uns aber nicht gestört.
Das Zimmer war klein, aber sehr zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Alles da was man braucht.

Cons:

Für das Bad wurde ein Teil des Zimmers abgetrennt und es ist zum Zimmer hin offen.
Da die Lüftung gut funktioniert war das aber kein Problem.

Good and co sortable hotel right on the edge of the old town, making sites accessible by foot.
Pros:

Location was excellent for the Old Town.

Cons:

The linen was looking like it needed replacing - sheets and towels.

Great location in the heart of Malacca
Pros:

Location is unbeatable. Walking distance to all the historical sites, museums, restaurants and the river. Our room was in the back -- so we had a little balcony overlooking the river.

Cons:

The room could use a ceiling fan so that we don't have to turn the air-con on all the time.

Perfect location, near everything you need to see, eat and do in Melakka.
