AI Summary
Located centrally in Melaka, with easy access to shopping and dining. Guests appreciate the friendly staff and flexible check-out. However, some found the rooms small and uncomfortable due to hard pillows.

There should be a KTV or other entertainment facilities near the room. It was still very noisy at 1 a.m., which affected the quality of sleep. Moreover, you can book it on the same day, and the price will drop by one third. The one I booked in advance was too expensive.
