I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were spacious with a beautiful ocean view, but the smell of cigarettes was off-putting at times. The service, while very helpful and knowledgeable about local attractions, could sometimes be slow to respond to requests. The location was convenient for families with its proximity to the sea, but it lacked nearby attractions within walking distance. The dining options were basic, but the experience was marred by a lack of cleanliness and organization in the dining area.

The hotel had everything we needed to make our stay pleasant. The room was good for all of us, but it wasn't ready until 4 pm. The service was the icing on the cake, with helpful and friendly staff ready to assist us whenever we met in the elevator. The location was perfectly near my workplace, though some improvements could be made in the bathroom. The dining experience was a bit of a letdown, as the food was poorly cooked and presented. Overall, a decent stay.

The hotel's location is brilliant, nestled in the heart of Gurney Drive with a stunning sea view and surrounded by malls. The rooms, unfortunately, were a letdown as we could hear the lift all night, and they appeared neglected triggering our hay fever. The service was commendable but could use a bit more warmth. The dining experience, catered to Asian tastes, left us craving for more diverse options. The facilities were adequate but lacked a modern touch.

I had a fantastic stay at the hotel! The rooms were extra spacious, clean, and offered a superb seaview. I loved that my room had a flat screen TV and not just one but TWO air conditioners to combat the Malaysian humidity. The off the wall decor added a unique touch to the room. The rooms were clean and definitely great value for money.

The dining experience was adequate but got rowdy and messy due to large crowds. It would be great to see more options for Western tastes and healthier choices, as the current selection lacked vegetables and healthy options. Despite the shortcomings, the fish and chips were a standout.

My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The room was spacious with 2 split air conditioners, but cleanliness was an issue. The service was wonderful, with friendly and kind staff, although there were some maintenance and service issues reported. The location was perfect along Gurney Drive, offering a fabulous sea view and convenient access to shopping areas and local food stalls. However, difficulties with ironing could be frustrating. The dining experience had its flaws, with overcrowding and messy conditions at times.

The hotel rooms were spacious and clean, but lacking room services menu and had some cleanliness issues like dirty bedsheets and hair in the toilet. The service was friendly and helpful, with plenty of parking space available. The location was perfect for families, with an amazing swimming pool facing the seaside. However, the dining experience was disappointing with not enough food and no refills.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with a great location, making it convenient for guests' needs. While the decor may seem a bit old-fashioned, the room is incredibly comfortable with a pleasant jacuzzi bath. The presence of a microwave, large fridge, cutlery, and plates made an extended stay with children very convenient.
