1. Stayed at room new renovated. But very2 disappointed with the room. It's much better compared to old room. Renovated but nothing special. Just new smell on paint!! Paid extra rm200 for nothing 2. Room was not equipped with day curtain!!! Only night curtain? There is no privacy. Can't enjoy the seaview when us night curtain. And if you look from the dataran, it very clear to see in side the room. Who the hell give the idea to remove the curtain?

“My wife and I had a wonderful stay and will certainly booked again.”
Excellent breakfast with lots of varieties. Very impressed with the staff and cleanliness of the hotel. The staff are very polite, helpful and honest. My wife left some valuables in the room and the housekeeping and management kept it for safekeeping until it was collected by my brother in law. We arrived early morning on 1st day tired and exhausted after 13 hours flight but the staff was kind enough to let us check in early at 12.
