Hotels near University of Science, Malaysia in Northeast Penang Island

I can easily find location of the hotel through google maps/ waze. If you are coming from USM, its quite difficult to enter the entrance road of the hotel due to the traffic condition. I suggest that you come from the Lotus hypermarket area, so the entrance road to the hotel is easily accessible. The receptionist is helpful and polite. The hotel provided ramp and lift and wheelchair-friendly. The room is quite small and compact but complete with basic necessities. The have smart tv so i can watch netflix using my account. Wifi is easily accessible. I could finish my work online during travelling. At the ground floor nearby thay have The Coffee Bean And Tea Lead Cafe, good dor those who are adsicted to coffee. Incan walk to the Lotus Hypermarket nearby to find toiletries or food, or eat at thw dood court. Family Mart is also a walking distance. It also located near to Pelita Nasi Kandar and Subaidah Nasi Kandar.

Tried out new concept with M Qube & it turned a pleasant stay. It is clean & well maintained in all areas. You will get all basic that needed after check-in and in your own cube. Locked locker provided also which no need worry your belongings with no where store but suggested for small/medium size only. Great ME-Time spent in own cube. You will have shared bathroom and it is acceptable clean level. Just to watch up that your amenities shower tray will be get wet if using standing rain shower head as it will spill all around. Location ok as there is a food court next to the building and the price is reasonable. I think gotten my second home to stay in whenever visit Penang 😊 Will be back soon!

My family was checked into suite 803.to get to it we had to walk past a stinking rubbish room with dirt on outside it on the corridor floor! In the suit itself, there were stalactites formed on the hall ceiling with stalagmites growing on the floor in the middle of a pool of water! The guy on duty(apparently they had no manager there to manage the place) said it must have just happened and housekeeping had not told anyone yet!!!I hate blatant lies, stalactites and stalactites take months to grow and these were at least 6 months old!!! They moved us to suite 1105. This was marginally better but apart from the simple lock on the main door there was no secondary lock on it as the chain was missing!! It appears they did not maintain this room either and are comfortable to put their guests security at risk. Other people have written about their bad experiences at this property on Trip Adviser over several years and where the management has replied they have said they will improve! Rubbish, these are just words. From our experience the management and maintainable of this place has not improved. There are properties in Penang managed by passionate staff. This is not one of them and well worth avoiding!!

First time in flamingo 🦩 hotel , like it very much ,fantastic review and very highly recommended next holidays I will book again 💕❤💕❤💕❤💕❤💕💕👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌

The hotel was nice n comfortable.. Friendly receptionist.. Overal it was good

Everything was fine, no high expectation since it's a budget hotel. Room for improvement for receptionist- they should be trained to be more friendly, warm and welcoming. Both receptionist on duty day and night were cold, unattentive and not friendly at all.

Room and hotel outlay are fine. But did not meet 5 star hotel standard. Got nice kids play area where not all hotel have. Customer service attendant not as pleasant. Besides that, requested RM15 per hour if would like to have early check in. Additional, Trip.com mentioned need only pay RM6 for the taxes but when reach there, requested to pay RM20. All about extra charges and pay in this hotel.

The room is very clean and tidy. The location is very convenient for the airport. The most important thing is that the boss is very nice. He took the trouble to help us answer and assist us with our itinerary questions before our trip. He is really very very considerate and must be praised. !

Honestly, feel very sorry for this hotel... They just took over from the previous owner and revamp it to look super nice and all facilities that are needed will be provided (drinking bottles in the room, water dispenser shared fridge in the hall, bath shampoo in the shared toilet, bath bags , adjustable wall-hooked smart TV, etc), way better than the 3stars hotel! Its such a rare find to pay such price and having 2 beds! The staffs are full of sweet smiles and kindness and very polite, they deserve praises for their good attitude and hospitality! If the night didn't come, this would have win our family's favorite of all time! If the night didn't come, I would crazily shared all the lovely photos and recommend to friends and families.. If only.. We stayed in Family 3 Pax - Shared Bathroom (lvl2), which is facing the main street. During the day, we noticed the street noise was quite loud in the room but is bearable for the on-off motorbikes and buses. HOWEVER, by night time, we were caught by surprise! There's a closed bar, 1945, with booming music going on non-stop with disco-like party! And because the room wall is just connected to this bar/restaurant, the vibration from the blasting music was really strong. There seems to be some unauthorized activities behind the closed door as you can hear the patrons getting too high, screaming on the street. And lots of motorbikes randomly parked around, so we were pretty worried about car getting vandalized/scratched as well. The party only ends by 3AM in the morning, so which means we only get to sleep by then. I did noticed that most of the reviews didn't mentioned this, only 1 or 2 so either everyone else's room is not directly affected like this room or they're out partying too :) I would say... if you're young and not a light-sleeper, do give this hotel a chance but just skip this particular room!

Value for money. A nicely decorated budget hotel in a tourist atrraction area. Room was small, but well maintained. The staff was friendly & helpful. For small price i paid, scrumpcious breakfast was provided in a nice small cafe.Parking was difficult in that area,luckily this hotel provided a parking space for guests. A bit under the bed when i moved it to provide space for prayer area.
