The hotel's location is strategic and near Pasar Payang, good because it's nearby shops and offers better than basic comforts by the riverside. The rooms have 2 single beds and are okay, but the bedsheets are dirty with stains and smelly, towel very dirty, tea facilities very poor, water heater not working, and the lighting is very bad with only 1 working bulb.

Although the hotel's facilities are a little dated and not overly comfortable, my stay was as promised during booking, but the rooms were not very clean and had a slight odor. The service was mostly attentive and satisfactory, except for a lack of information assistance. Its location is quite good, being close to local attractions and within the city center. The dining experience was satisfactory with decent breakfast options. The facilities were average, and the value for money was acceptable.

The hotel is strategically located near Chinatown and just 11 minutes away from Pasar Payang, offering a good view of the waterfront. The rooms were facing the Chinese temple, which was not ideal for a Muslim like me but as promised during booking. The service was friendly at reception and in the restaurant, although not really helpful in providing information. The dining experience was satisfactory with a decent buffet spread, but breakfast was not included. The hotel's proximity to local attractions like Pasar Payang and cafes is a big plus.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the location was convenient and close to many local amenities, the rooms were in need of refurbishment. The service, especially towards European customers, was excellent, but the cleanliness could be improved. The dining options were limited, but the hotel facilities were satisfactory. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.

Although the rooms faced a busy road with no privacy due to the need to keep the curtains drawn, they were nice and clean. The noise from the road, especially cars racing at night, could be disturbing. The service was competent and friendly but a bit slow. The hotel location is a key advantage being close to the city center, especially Pasar Payang, providing easy access to the main attractions of Terengganu. The dining experience offered a decent Malaysian menu with good variety. Overall, the hotel provides a good value for money stay.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location is truly amazing for backpackers being on a river bank at the end of the city, near to several tourist spots. However, the room had issues with a damp, moldy carpet smell and dirty, stained bed sheets. The service was a bit old and not well-maintained, with limited parking and reception staff not being very helpful. The dining experience was okay, offering local delights and a Western breakfast but still lacking in some aspects.

My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The location was great, close to many attractions in the city center, but the rooms had a spooky and old vibe. The service provided by the staff at the reception was friendly, and the prices were affordable compared to the service offered. The dining experience was good overall, with some delicious options available, but there were a few letdowns. The facilities were decent but could use some improvements.
