I came with high expectations and left disappointed. For a hotel which positioned itself as a resort with prices to match, I felt shortchanged.
The room did not have ventilation when all windows were closed and the windows had to be closed because of its proximity to the main road. Furthermore, there were no insect screens on the windows, hence on a warm night it could be unbearable.
We were not provided with drinking water on the first day of our stay and there was no hair dryer in the room. The toiletries also left much to be desired as no toothbrush and shaving kit were provided. The price for a breakfast was exorbitant at rm80 per person. 5 star hotels I stayed in kl and Penang did not charge half as much for breakfast. There were also no cable broadband in the rooms, although there was free wifi in the lounge.
My credit card was debited even before I arrived at the hotel and before I checked out. I wanted to change my credit card for payment but was not able to. I had earlier confirmed with asiarooms that payment would only be effected upon checking out which would allow me to pay with a different credit card or cash if I chose to.
The only saving grace for the hotel was that their staff were friendly but I think it had to be more because of their inherent nature as Malaysians. The location of the hotel made it very easy for anyone to locate it.
I will definitely not return to stay at this hotel.
