Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The inclusion of a Netflix subscription on the TV was a nice touch. The hotel was very well located, close to some lovely little shops and cafes and the vibrant Jalan Gaya market. The room was comfortable and the bathroom stylish and clean.
Negative: The hotel in general seemed quite empty of guests, but even so we noticed quite a bit of noise from cleaning and maintenance staff. The noise was all during the day so no big deal, but it did make us feel as though the room was not very private noise-wise.
Summary: Comfortable and well located gem.
