Negative with reception
Pros:

The room is clean

Cons:

At check out, the staff refused to issue an invoice for me even I had insisted many times. I even told her that it wasn’t my first time staying at that hotel. She refused to do it and told me to ask booking.com for the invoice. It was absolutely frustrating and wasted my time to chase the invoice as I was traveling for work.

Excellent
Pros:

My favorite hotel each time I come to Penang. Love the comfy bed, fluffy pillows. Friendly staff. I booked the room for our wedding anniversary at a very last minute, about 3 hours before arrival..to my surprise the room was ready with a welcoming anniversary deco… really make our day special.
There are 24 hours “mamak” restaurant nearby and a few eateries… very convenient.

Cons:

Nil. No complaint.
