The surrounding attractions and restaurants are very convenient. You can walk there. The service attitude of the girl at the front desk is very good. It is not crowded to wash. It is also very convenient to stay with children

The hotel front desk was very friendly and helpful! The room is large, the public space is surprisingly large, and all facilities are very complete. The only problem is that the sound outside may be noisy at night. Because the floor is a wooden structure, there will be a creaking sound, but the front desk also Ear plugs are provided. The location of the hotel is very good, in the core area, seven, street food, everything is very convenient!

Conveniently located to main attractions in Georgetown, hostel is clean. The ratio of bathroom stalls to occupants felt low, but did not face any issues with having to wait.

Because I saw that the trip.com rating was 4/5, I was a little bit excited. Unexpectedly, the room was very dark and shabby, not like the 4 points on trip.com. I was a bit disappointed.

The staff was friendly, the room was clean, and the shower and wine facilities were very good. But for some reason, a cat suddenly appeared one night? I'm afraid of cats It’s just that there aren’t many tables and chairs where you can sit. One seat is a bit hot and you can’t sit there for too long. The prices are very reasonable and not expensive. This is a very good hotel.
