The bathroom and amenities is comfortable and awesome. The location also strategic with many places. However, the breakfast set is not satisfied because of limited choice and some dishes taste terrible. Hope the management makes some improvement soon. Overall, the hotel is moderate and satisfied.

Everything was okay but I would like to suggest to hotel management about quiteness around the hotel. I often wake up during my sleep in the midnight by people stayed around the hotel. Maybe can put signboard not to make noise from 10pm onwards. The kids running and shouting all nights

SUPER OYO 89944 Stay Inn
So frustrated. Checking in late because flight got delayed but then still got this kind of room. Unattended. Looks like somebody else just got out of this room right bfr I checked in without room service at all. Not recommended at all. Luckily I'm just staying here for a night bfr I can check in to another hotel. Yes it's cheap but still not worth it. Rm100 for a night in this condition is so frustrating.

Impiana Mutiara Hotel @ Kampung Air
Location is opposite a night market. A bit distance from gaya street. Room condition is totally different from the picture shown in their ads. Room is small, with funny smell inside every time I get into my room. I can hear people talking outside and banging their door at midnight. The lucky thing is air conditioner is still cold and hot water shower is still hot. Will I come again? NO!
