Sandhul, el recepcionista nocturno fue un encanto. Llegamos tarde y nos recomendo un restaurante indio espectacular. La habitacion nos soprendio mucho. Es muy grande. Ademas, esta justo donde quieres estar en george town. Perfecto

La insonorizacion. se oyen los rezos de la mezquita a las 5 y a las 6 de la mañana

Best little hotel in Georgetown
Pros:

I love everything about this hotel, fantastic location, clean light and airy room with excellent aircon, the pool - a most unusual extra in a hotel in the middle of Georgetown and Ravi kind helpful and welcoming manager. You can't go wrong here nor find anywhere or anyone better.
Thanks Ravi.

Un beau gâchis car l’hôtel est idéalement situé. Nous avons décidé de quitter l’hôtel avant la fin du séjour pour raison
Pros:

Un hôtel qui n’est plus entretenu par les propriétaires malgré tous les efforts et la gentillesse de Ravi
qui se démène…

Cons:

Dégâts des eaux dans la chambre/ murs fissurés / thermostat de la douche cassé et pas réglable / Clim qui dysfonctionne/ draps plein de taches / propriétaire qui s’en moque visiblement.

Lástima de los despertares nocturnos de la mezquita
Pros:

Muy céntrico y al lado de las calles principales

Cons:

El personal en recepción tardó mucho en presentarse a nuestra llegada.
La mézquita está al lado y sus dos reclamos a la oración a primera hora del amanecer hace dificil conciliar el sueño
