Anonymous, Feb 2017

Pros. stayed for 4 days end of jan and had good overall experience.decent room ,clean very polite and helpful staff.breakfast was good with lots of choice.the location is 7km out of centre which is my only issue,it costs 60 ringitt return and obviously adds up if you go there once or twice a day,for me l would probably recommend only a few days for that reason,although there are shops and cafes all around the more upmarket ones are in the centre.
