At description list have LED TV facilities , but the room in checkin don’t have any TV , felt being cheated . Anyway valued for money and located at hotspot Georgetown area
It was central and the staff were excellent. I was happy with the room given to me. It came with air conditioning.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Bed was clean, and common area was nice, but the toilets on the first floor were disgusting... a lot of flies and cockroaches...
breakfast was ok, nothing special, but anytime coffee/tea and cookies was nice.
They close doors after 21:00, so if you check in after 21:00, you need to contact them, otherwise you will not be able to come in(maybe someone open door, but can’t be sure)?
+ decent location
+ comfy bed
+ nice ground floor shared area with water cooler, tea, coffee
- shared toilets/showers in poor condition.
- very thin walls (or closed connecting door between rooms) so you can hear every word your loud Neighbours say
- power failure late evening leading to stuff turning on and off repeatedly one night
I love how helpful and accommodating they are. I was a bit bummed that our room didn't have a window (made me feel a bit claustrophobic), but since we spent most of our times outside, it didn't matter much. It was an overall a very pleasant experience and I'd definitely recommend them.
