Pleasantly surprised to find the rooms super big & location of the hotel right in the heart of George Town. Simple afternoon tea included. Cross a street to get to Chowrasta Market, Kimberly Night Market & famous Penang Chendol . Paid street parking is limited during the day but by night, it's quite available. Light sleepers, do note that you can easily hear traffic noise/ other guests along corridor.

環境不錯,南洋風,下午還有免費的下午茶提供,工作人員都很有禮貌,位置靠近汕頭街夜市,每天都去買鹵味吃。唯一缺點就是隔音不好,外面摩託車聲音很響,還有房間光線很暗

The location is good, not close to the main street so it's not noisy, the hotel has a good Nanyang style environment, breakfast is buffet, on the last day there is a menu and you can order a set meal which is very rich (I don't know if it's because it's a weekday), the front desk service is very good, the only drawback is that the shower water temperature is a bit low, hope it can be improved.
