water temperatureinconsistent pressure
The room i got was quite disappointing. it seemed a bit old and not very well kept. the bathroom had some problems. The water temperature was hard to adjust, and the pressure wasn't consistent either. i also found that after showering, the floor would get quite wet. it wasn't the most pleasant experience.

The location is superb, directly on cenang beach. i found numerous dining options nearby, from spas to souvenir shops. it was easy to access attractions, night markets, and minimarts. i also saw fire shows. It was great entertainment. the sea view from my balcony was just amazing.
the balcony lacked any furniture, a slight inconvenience. i would have liked to sit outside more often.
