It's barely livable for business trips, but it's recommended not to stay here if you can avoid it... It's not ideal. I booked probably the last room in the hotel, close to the road, with almost no sound insulation. You can even say that it doesn't have sealed windows, but baffles instead. So the noise you get is no different from sleeping on the road. Fortunately, my sleep quality is not bad, otherwise I would die there.

Since it was just for a 2D1N stay, my partner & I chose this budget hotel due to its location & value. It was close to the airport & past reviews were positive. When we arrived, there was ample parking space. However, there was no concierge & we had to carry our bags into the Hotel. An elderly man attended to us at the reception. As we arrived early at 12 pm, he explained that our room was not ready. Check-in time was at 2 pm. Since our room was not ready, he asked whether we could take the room on the 1st floor. We had no issue & accepted graciously. There was no lift to the 1st floor. Thus, we had to carry our luggage ourselves to our room. Our room was a decent size although it felt a little claustrophobic as there was no space beside our double bed on both ends. The mattress was soft which was not good for my back & the pillows were equally soft too. The TV was mounted to the wall, facing the bed. I believe we had satellite TV but we did not get to enjoy it as we were out most of the day & came home late. The closet follows the open Scandinavian concept where hangers are hung out in the open for all to see. Two bottled water were given inclusive of tea & coffee making facilities. The air-conditioner came in handy as it cooled the room fast. Our room was also equipped with complimentary WiFi. The bathroom was clean & came with the basic water heater which took time to heat up. There was also a hand bidet which we greatly appreciated. We went out after checking in & came back late in the evening. Since it was such a hot day, we finished the bottled water. My partner went to the lobby with the intention of buying a couple of bottled water to quench our thirst. However, I was told that the staff had given 2 additional water bottles free of charge. Although check-out is at 12 pm, we checked-out the next day early in the morning & were given 2 more additional water bottles on the house. I would definitely come back to Tanjong Inn. A mentioned earlier, apart from its location & value, their generosity exceeds any 5-Star Hotel!

Nice apartment and clean. The location is nearby the town especially Kopitiam Kita and Pasar Siti Khadijah. We enjoyed staying here just for one night and satisfied with the facilities provided.

Nice and clean property, friendly staff and helpful Reasonable price. No lift. Also have hi-pressure hot water shower. The hotel located in center of town.
