The hotel offers a fantastic view of the Padang and includes breakfast, but the rooms are old with limited updated facilities. The service is excellent, with a friendly and accommodating staff. The location is convenient, close to major KK highlights and eateries. The dining experience provides enough options but lacks some variety. Overall, it's a decent choice for the value.
