I had a pretty good stay at this hotel, especially because of its great location close to major attractions in Georgetown. The rooms were spacious and modern, but a little lacking in fragrance. The service was friendly, though not perfect. Dining was a letdown since the restaurant was under renovation. Overall, I found it to be good value for money despite some drawbacks.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were quite spacious and modern, which I really appreciated, but they weren't very soundproof and I could hear a lot of noise from the corridors and outside. The location was excellent, right in the heart of Georgetown with easy access to local markets and eateries. Unfortunately, the dining options were limited due to renovations, which was a letdown considering the overall value for money.

I recently stayed at this hotel and found it to be in a great location right in the heart of Georgetown, which made it easy to explore the area. The rooms could use a little TLC as they felt a bit dusty and had a strange smell, but they were generally comfortable. The service was decent, but I noticed the restaurant was under renovation, which was a letdown since I was expecting to enjoy some meals on-site. Overall, it’s a good value for money considering the location, but there are definitely some areas that could be improved.
