1a Aufenthalt für zwei bis drei Tage.
Pros:

Zuerst ist der sehr nette Herr am Empfang zu nennen, der für alle Fragen zur Verfügung stand und sehr kompetent und freundlich wirkte. Die Lage ist auch super. Wir mochten das gemütliche Bett.

Cons:

Leider sind die Zimmer tatsächlich ziemlich hellhörig und auch die Sauberkeit bspw. des Sofas lässt zu wünschen übrig. Uns hätten zwei Übernachtungen tatsächlich für George Town gereicht. Leider war der tatsächliche Preis für die Unterkunft aufgrund von Gebühren und Steuern am Ende fast 50% teurer als der zunächst angegebene Preis. Hier wäre eine Preisangabe inklusive Gebühren und Steuern transparenter, dieses Problem liegt allerdings bei Booking.

Pros:

床很舒服,房间里的卫生也还不错,公共区域有饮水机和熨烫机还有吹风机,算设施比较全的,而且空调很制冷。

Cons:

真的有点吵啊,不分日夜,我的房间甚至没有外窗也会被轰鸣的摩托声吵到。房间有冰箱,但冰箱有股怪味,而且冰箱的电也是随着房卡的,所以人离开以后冰箱就会断电,没什么实际制冷的结果。

Bon hôtel
Pros:

L’hôtel est très joli et accueillant, il est situé juste en face d’un centre commercial et pas très loin de george town.

Cons:

La chambre que j’avais donnait côté rue et il m’a été très compliqué de pouvoir trouver le sommeil avec le bruits des véhicules toute la nuit.

Cons:

床品的卫生情况一般,隔音不好,晚上有人很大声的看手机刷视频,洗澡的声音都能听见。
