    Great location and staff, can get some improvement on facilities to get that wow factor

    However, due to the proximity to attractions such as night market, also meant it can be a bit noisy at night esp weekend after Muslim new year, could hear loud musics + fire crackers? at late nights. The room itself is a bit small, with only the tiniest bedside tables (slightly bigger than a palm and one already got a telephone on it) and a very small table topped already with a kettle and some tea/coffee sachets at a corner. Would be much nicer if they can think of loft setting (if allowed cos' do understand it's an old shophouse building). The air con kept on switching back to the default setting, so cold wind was blowing directly at the bed. The channels available are all local, so we didn't really use that, will be a great addition if they can get a cable to connect to a mobile device or just a SMART TV so patrons can go to youtube or netflix.

    The location is perfect, just 5-min walk to Jonker street and main tourist attractions. I liked the bathroom and the rain shower. The staff are friendly overall and helpful, especially want to thank them when I was feeling unwell to help get some cold med from the pharmacy. BTW, you can request toothbrush+paste and/or razors cos' they may not supply these readily in the room.

    Laundry - a few of the thick clothes received were not fully dry. My advice is to check all items in the room upon check-in. They thought we spoiled the water flask when we asked to replace one(we only realised the cover was broken when we want to boil water at night). We were asked to pay for it, which we did not. Though they did not insist but just don't feel good with that!

    The security - 24 hours with staff at counter accessing guests going in and out. Guests can only enter the main door through the staff at coubter. This ensures that no other than guests can enter the premises.

    1. The label on the fridge states all drinks inside the fridge are complimentary so we consumed them. At checkout, staff says only water was free. In the end, I paid RM54. Please re-phrase your label. Very misleading. 2. The bigger rooms that I booked were on the 2nd floor. My group of senior ladies had a difficult time using the staircase, as there is no lift. The staff suggested we move to the smaller rooms on the 1st floor, which we did. 3. The location of the hotel was good, near Jonker Walk. However, walking from the hotel to the Jonker Walk using the front door was very dangerous. Vehicles were less than a foot away from us. Overall, Rooms were not discounted when we stayed in smaller rooms on the ground floor. We were charged drinks we thought were complimentary.

    No hooks on the walls or outside the cabinet and a small cabinet in the bathroom for storing items . As the room is cosy but a bit small , the hooks will help esp when u have 2 guests sleeping in the room as the wardrobe cabinet is very small .

    Clean room , nice bathroom and all the staff members are great. Very friendly and always willing to assist .

    Would like a small blind that could be pulled over frosted glass window to blacken room in evening.

    Location is perfect to see all the important landmarks and accomodation has a lot of charm. It is 1 street away from Jonker street and short stroll to Little India. Extremely close to river where you can sit relax and enjoy a beverage or two…

    Great 1 night stay for New Year Eves (Balcony room.)
    • Leisure trip

    • Stayed 1 night

    Toilet was abit odd with the door having a pretty big gap below right in front of the toiletbowl, it might get awkward for non-couples who share a room (what with the sounds and smell). Otherwise, the toilet was clean and had a modern design. Do need to take note that being at such a prime central location, it was VERY NOISY throughout the night(up till 3-4am) - it was NYE so perhaps parties also went on later for that particular night, so it won't be a good idea to take the balcony room for light sleepers.

    Hotel location was very central, walking distance to Jonker Street for all your eating and shopping. There was allocated free parking behind the hotel (1 or 2) and we were fortunate enough that it was a rather quiet day for the hotel so we managed to snag the parking lot. We had the premium balcony room, which view half overlooks the Melaka river so it was quite nice. Room was clean and comfortable, spacious enough for 2 for a short stay. It was 31st December, so we had wonderful exclusive view of New Year fireworks from the privacy of our balcony! What a great experience.

    Nothing. Our stay was perfect!

    The rooms were comfy and clean. The deco was cute. The staff were good. You get free parking. The best part was the location! It was in Jonker and close to all the places we wanted to visit! Every time we get tired, it was easy to walk back to the hotel, rest for a while and go back out. The location was PERFECT. We will definitely love to come back here again
