Perfectly located in Old Town and such a good value for money. Superb service
Pros:

Everything was amazing! I would give more than 10 stars if I could! The property is in Old Town and within short walking distance to coffee shops, restaurants, convenience stores and the famous Jonker Street. The accommodation itself is well maintained and was very clean. The service was excellent, from check in to check out. Located in a very nice little side road, it’s also very quiet at night.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

It was very clean, there were cute details in the room. The staff from the reception is so kind and helpful.

Cons:

The bed is rock hard, it is like sleeping in concrete. I stayed three night and by checkout I had a sore neck and back. It is like sleeping on cement.

差，很差
Pros:

地板都是黑乎乎，临街晚上根本睡不着，路人打个喷嚏都听得到，窗户完全透光，老旧的竹帘千疮百孔，一楼还有一个灯说为了上下楼方便不能关，整夜亮着灯，空调还巨大声，都不知道两个娃怎么时候睡，我是半睡半醒了熬了一个晚上去，天晓得谁还能给五分好评，为了那点广告费，你们也要凭良心吧

Cons:

什么都要改进

Cons:

The reception is attached with a restaurant, but what shown in the guideline is a souvenir shop. This made the identification of check-in spot difficult.

The blanket is too small to even cover a queen bed.

For a room which charged moderately high (rm200), guests deserve to have a better amenity and tea/coffee making set in the room, rather than just a water dispenser and only one type of pre-mixed beverage placed in the common area.

A cozy nook!
Pros:

Although the room is simple, you'll have everything you need! Moreover, the location is ideal as it is located in a quiet alley. However, it is walking distance to many of the attractions. The staff members are friendly too!

Cons:

For the value of money, it has all the necessary facilities and amenities, so I think everything is sufficient. However, the bed can be a little too firm for my preference.
