"Don't book the 'Executive Suite' unless you're a large group. The Executive Suite has two rooms and can accommodate up to four people, but it's located in a separate, very old building. The bedding had a really strong, unpleasant odor – like curry and body odor. It was so bad, I couldn't sleep at all; it felt like crawling into someone else's dirty sheets. After insisting, the hotel moved me to a new room in the recently renovated building. The front desk staff's service was decent throughout this. Finally, in the new room, I could sleep peacefully.
Location: It's relatively remote, about a 20-30 minute taxi ride from Georgetown and the city center. The closest shopping area is Queensbay Mall, about 1.6 km away, which has plenty of dining, entertainment, and shopping options, so that's a plus. If you have an early flight the next day, it's a good transit stop."
