I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this hotel. The room we initially got was scarce, but after being allocated a new room on the 6th floor, it was spacious and clean. The service was a mix; the staff were welcoming and friendly, but the overpriced taxi service left a bad impression. The location was convenient, close to local delights and attractions, although a bit sketchy in the evenings. The dining experience offered plenty of menu choices, but it was average overall. The facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.

The hotel had newly renovated rooms with pleasant modern decor and all necessary facilities, but they were quite small and cramped, unexpectedly fully equipped for our stay. However, the road noise at the front of the building kept us awake, and the room felt squashed like sardines with three of us.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were newly renovated with a pleasant modern design, equipped with all required facilities including a 2nd TV and a large bedroom with a very comfortable king-sized bed, which is normally a must for me. The service was excellent, with staff willing to assist, albeit with limited English, providing maps and umbrellas and even arranging our early morning taxi. The location was perfect for me, right in the center of Kota Bharu, within walking distance of great eating places and local delights. The dining experience was simple but good, especially the delicious fried kue teow. Overall, a great value for money option with fantastic facilities.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with basic amenities but lacks natural light. Access to rooms via a dangerous staircase can be inconvenient, and noise from the function hall can be disruptive if not soundproof. Despite this, the staff provide excellent service and are very helpful with various needs. The central location is perfect for exploring the town and accessing local restaurants and shops. The dining experience offers a decent buffet selection. Overall, the hotel provides good value for money but could improve on room soundproofing and natural light.
