Good location-close to Blue Mansion and walkable to most locations with main bus route around corner. Our room-105, only had 1 window but we kept it shut as faced back street and air conditioning units which hummed all day/night.also our room was behind wooden staircase so imagine foot traffic noise. Nice shower. Roof too sauna was more of a marketing gimmick as too hot to use! Reception staff were hit/miss but never rude. We would return to Penang and only choose Modern for its location-not that cheap really

I personally think the price is average and not worth it. First of all, the first floor of the hotel picture is not the lobby, but a small storefront on the side. The front desk does not speak Chinese. Other hotels of the same price have large enough public areas. Fortunately, the room is OK, it is relatively large. The sanitary napkin shower is not good. In addition, if you have requirements for noise, just pass it. The window is the old glass window, and there is no sound insulation. When I checked in, it said modern hotel next to it. This is actually better than a hotel.

The hotel is very nice. It is an old colonial house that has been renovated, remodeled in a very modern style. However, the maintenance in the room was not entirely correct, the paint was peeling in some areas. Also, there is no elevator, you have to carry your suitcases up a couple of floors. The location is perfect.
