The room temperature upon arrival was about 40C, the tv has 1 channel, the toilet leaked and I stepped in the puddle late at night with no light on to go pee, and they called my room at 10:47pm to advise me that they would comp me a lunch! Overall, very disappointed.

Satisfied with the cleanliness, love the antique feel and the family room design. Breakfast is nice although slow due to the ala cart and small kitchen. Reception service is ok but their knowledge is limited to within the hotel only. They know nothing outside the hotel even though it's just around the hotel within walking distance.

The pool is too small to swim! The location is too remote and inconvenient to get in and out, but the hygiene is very good!

This time I visited Penang again after 13 years. I wanted to visit places I hadn't been to last time and experience Nyonya culture again. So I chose a museum hotel with a Nanyang style. The hotel decoration is very distinctive and the transportation is convenient, but the room has no windows and the smell is not good. The hot water ran out in the middle of the shower because a switch controls the temperature. This is the first time I have seen this. There was an Indian woman at the front desk with a very average service attitude. The breakfast a la carte was a waste of time, and the front desk did not remind me that I needed to wait.
