My stay was absolutely amazing! The hotel is perfectly located in the heart of Kuantan town, surrounded by a variety of malls and cafes. The rooms are not only cozy and comfortable but also very clean. The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly, making us feel right at home. However, I wish there were more dining options available, especially for breakfast. Overall, a great value for money experience!

The hotel offers well-equipped and clean rooms, but there is a need for more thorough cleaning to remove dust. The weak Wi-Fi signal is a downside, and the pervasive smell of smoke is off-putting throughout the hotel premises.

The dining experience was basic and lacking variety. Some food items, like cakes, displayed staleness, and the absence of Muslim-friendly bathroom facilities posed challenges.

The facilities were adequate but somewhat basic. Improvement could be made in the dining options and room cleanliness. The absence of Muslim-friendly bathroom amenities is a notable flaw.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. Despite the ageing facilities and proximity to the lift shaft, the room I had on level 5 was incredibly cosy, comfortable, and spotlessly clean. The service was pleasant, although the sound from the adjacent room was audible at times. The hotel's location in the heart of Kuantan city was convenient, with easy access to shopping malls and local amenities. However, the dining experience left much to be desired due to the lack of Muslim-friendly bathroom facilities.
