The hostel sits on the perimeter of little India. It might have seen its better days.
While the bed is fluffy and clean, bathroom is always flooded with water and difficult to place a foot.
Given the price, it is till a good choice and I would not complain at all.
(+) Location was good, away from the crowds yet walkable distance to main sights. Bus stop for the free CAT buses is just behind. Easy self check in. Room was nice - comfortable beds & pillows, toiletries and towels provided, there's a lift, and the water dispenser on the ground floor was a bonus. Toilet was clean, shower and drainage good.
(-) There were ants in the room. Walls / windows are not sound proof - could hear conversations next door very clearly and rubbish truck comes at 11pm every night so your sleep will be disturbed. Aircon was leaking but thankfully still working. Fan and TV werent working, but not a big issue.
Hi . Newly open hotel , i think this one also room for rent monthly . Need to call staff when arriving and got public parking as well. Not a very convenience place but for the price and the cleanliness, is very high recommended. They only provide u soap, so u need to bring your amenities like toothbrush . The towel is for kids size but since I’m travelling w my mom then no issues . Very could and nice place for a short stay. Below at morning time got the nasi lemak viral for rm1, and the green thai tea also very delicious .
This budget hotel very near to all the eateries (Kimberley night market), 10min walk to Komtar. Can reach there using free bus (Cat) plus 5min walk.
Downside is the air con is fixed to the position that the air blown directly to your head some might causes headache and for me is mouth dry.
The room is clean, the owner is friendly.. -1 for location just because quite hard to park your car if you come more than 1car.. but you can freely ask the owner, they can assist you.. It actually 4.9/5 for the location.. 😂😂 They have Family Mart ,Subway,BaskBear,Nasi Kandar Pelita,Nasi Ayam Gepuk.. it only walking distance to arrive those places.. Your tummy will be full at all time.. Overal it is 5/5 staying at these place..

I just hope the hotel can add more details on their site, mine don't have windows but no complain since we stay for short time. Iron and drinking water provided at the stairs.
The host is very responsive. It is recommended for those without small children. The environment is the same as in the picture.
Very Good

SSamantha Hotel located within walking distance to Gurney Plaza shopping complex and restaurants. and u can see there is very big Siam and Myanmar temple at roadside. The only bad things for this hotel is opposite have a Muslim temple which morning very noisy and room can hear vehicles, roadside noisy sound a bit disturbing while sleeping.

AAlaosuoniFacilities: Although relatively simple, you can feel that the store is full of care and has everything you need.
Hygiene: Very clean, I feel like home in this environment
Environment: Surrounded by Little India, you can walk more than 100 meters to the beach to see the sea. There is a ferry on the other side of the sea.
Service: The service is very good. The boss personally helps you with your luggage, and also asks if you want an omelette. He also gives you an Indian pancake to try, which is very considerate.
