Be surprised! Despite an unusual entrance and two stories of easy stairs, these rooms are first class- 5 star- and seriously the most comfortable sleep I have had in memory. Beautiful bedding and all the bathroom accessories to match. Great location close to the waterfront and great food and bars.

As we just a small family of 3 (including my little one), I booked the King Room. We were there for just 2 nights. Modern and very clean. Bedroom is immaculate. Bed linen is very clean. Pillows are fluffy. Bathroom is very clean. Towels very clean. Basic toiletries are available. Love the interior decor of the hotel, from the lift area, the corridor and the room. For Muslim travellers, the room has a sticker showing the kiblat direction. Lots of switches for your phone/gadget charging needs. Security using the lift to go up to room as we had to scan our room card in the lift. (It will not allow to select your room floor without your keycard). The lift automatically selects the floor to your room upon scanning. This was unlike another budget hotel we ever stayed nearby where anyone can just select the any floor they want to go to (scary!) Hotel is situated within walking distance to Imago. For breakfast, there is a 24-hour “kedai mamak” at the ground floor just around the corner of the hotel.
