Had unpleasant experience and hotel should check if door is working fine before the guest check-in
Pros:

The hotel is just opposite of KSL which was very convenient.

Cons:

Paid more and book the suite room. However, was disappointed with the hotel room as there was issue on opening the door when returning to the room every time. Called the staffs to fix it at night but it take hours. Till next day morning then they managed to fixed it. By the time, it was fixed we already leaving the hotel so no point.

Lousy reception staff
Cons:

When I arrived there to check in at around 2 am, I was attended to by foreign workers working at reception. I requested that my room be changed from a two single bed room to a room with a double bed. I don’t know how Holiday Villa trains its staff but the reception staff named “Azizul” seems to have no idea what a “double bed” means. He assumed a double bed is two single beds, when anyone who has ever travelled would immediately know what it means. To make it worse the staff rudely tried to “teach” me that the hotel either has a king size bed room or two single beds room. Important note here is when I actually went to the room, it actually has a queen size bed. I do not take kindly to being rudely attended to by an intellectually challenged and poor general knowledge individual who does not know what a “double bed” means and what king size bed looks like (I know because my home has several king size beds) and tried to act smart with me when he is clearly wrong. This hotel has to train its staff better. Aside from not being rude, as they do work in the hospitality industry, please learn what a “double bed” means and what a king size bed looks like.

Pros:

Excellent location beside KSL mall. Every Monday have pasar malam.

Good value for money.

Excellent spread of breakfast buffet.

Cons:

This is quite funny. We stayed in premium suite. We did not know there is a button to frost the clear toilet window. We thought the hotel designer had some kinky ideas.

Anyway, would have been better if reception staff informed us upon checkin.

Also felt breakfast service staff could be slightly better trained to not block passageway and to give right of way to hotel guests.

Overall, I was disappointed with my stay, and I do not feel the room quality matched the price charged.
Pros:

The location was strategic nearby to KSL mall for food hunting and shopping

Cons:

I booked the Premium Suite for one night (Room 1301). Unfortunately, I had a disappointing experience during my stay.
The air conditioner was not cold even though I set the temperature to 15°C, which made it very uncomfortable and caused me to sweat while sleeping. In addition, the mini fridge was switched on but was not cooling at all.
The room lighting was also too dim, and there wasn’t even a light above the sofa area, making the room feel quite dark.(at night)
Considering the price paid for the Premium Suite, I don’t feel that the experience was worth the cost. I hope the management can improve these issues for future guests.
