William, Kuala Lumpur

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Excellent location within Georgetown, 3 minutes walk to Komtar. Just next door to many restaurant and food stalls. Nice and friendly staff. Satisfactory washroom and room cleanliness and could be improves. E.g.: Room floor was not being mopped. Zero sound proof room. I stay at the ground floor and because the upper floor is wooden made, the sound of foot steps upstairs are loud and clear. But what to expect, its a budget stay after all. What's nice about the room is that the air-conditioner works well, and there is a fan as well. Recommended if you are on a budget travel.

We booked 2 double rooms, our rooms are clean but my air con remote was broken and I already informed the girl at front counter but no action I got to borrow from my friend's room. For our rooms location need to claim upstaire and staire case very high Toilet a little bit dirty. They provide towel if you ask. The location very good next steamboat restuarant and street food just in front of the hotel. Nearby shopping mall just walking distance.Cheap and value
