    “Excellent in every way”

    Very clean room and bathroom. Very comfortable. Clean linen and towel I had a very good sleep. The room I chose had a great view of the Komtar Tower. Parking for my motorcycle was secure. The check-in was efficient and quick. The young man at the front counter welcomed me with a smile and treated me very well. No complaints whatsoever. Location-wise, it's very close to food outlets and mini-markets.
