The price is worth it for a 3-star hotel, and condition and facilities expected. There was an event one night of our stay and the karaoke was really going strong. Didn't go on for too long though, but hotel should consider soundproofing the function rooms for comfort of guests.

This hotel is generally good. The location is nice just minutes’ walk from the night markets. Rooms are clean. However there’s a big ventilation fan on the mountain side, which makes a lot of noise all day long. This makes most of the Mountain View room kind of noisy.

We saw this hotel since we are kid, but the hotel still look great for the room, plus lot of space too and i loved their carpet floor. They also give us some compliment fruits which is very respectful and i also very thankful and do enjoy our stay. Place is quiet as well, city view do consider very good, just exept you do not get room safe. but it is secure.

the interior of hotel is good, but the exterior building would need a coat of paint. i will consider staying there again. maybe have a safe deposit box in each room - why ? your clients will want to go to pulau, so they can lock their passport and valuables in the room , rather than using the front safe. SO PLS IMPLEMENT A SAFE IN EACH ROOM INCLUDING ECONOMY ROOMS WITHOUT WINDOWS AT LEVEL 2.

Elvianna a hotel staff kindly exchanged WhatsApp text to give me advice when I was exploring activities to do before I reached there. It's situated along a small lane. The only trouble I had was getting a room facing the road, which was pretty noisy and hard for me to get rested especially for the first night. It didn't help that I needed to wake up after 4am to join a tour the following day. I took the buffet breakfast on the 2nd & 3rd morning. The first one they had few guests and food were less fresh. The 2nd day was better.
