Cons:
1. There's a connecting door in the room leading to the next room. Although it has a lock, you can still peek into the other room, which feels very unsafe.
2. There were monkeys in the hallway, geckos on the walls, and ants in the room. You'd think I was staying in the middle of nature.
3. There are bedside tables, but no power outlets near the bed, making it very inconvenient to charge devices.
4. The showerhead switch is like those you find in fast-food restaurants – is it to save water? You turn it on full blast, then have to slowly turn it off until no water comes out, then open it again, and slowly close it again.
Pros:
1. There's a parking lot right at the hotel entrance, making parking convenient.
2. The staff are friendly and provide good service.
3. The bed sheets and duvet covers are changed for every new guest.
4. The room size is quite spacious.
Went to Kangar for business trip and stayed at this hotel. Clean and quiet. There is a cafe downstairs but I wish it opens in the morning as well. Went to a mango farm nearby and had the sweetest mangoes famous in Perlis.
I booked 1 night stay here because I was heading to Hat Yai by train and thought this would be a good place to stay. However, the location is remote and nothing nearby so you are reliant on Grab even for food which will cost you more in delivery than the bcost of the food itself. With the benefit of hindsight, it would have been better to stay in the town of Padang Basar itself where food and drink would be available in walking distance and you are not too far from the border with Thailand.
There is no restaurant on site but there is a Cafe which which offers basic stuff and, as far as I could make out, it not open all the time - hence my need to order food via Grab delivery.
When you first turn the shower on for a hot shower, only cold water comes out, I waited a couple of minutes letting the shower run but it was still running cold so I went to Reception to ask about it. The young man at Reception initially said it was down to a Maintenance issue so I asked if it affects ALL the rooms or just mine. If only my room was affected then I should be moved to another room which had hot water in the shower. I said that I must best have a hot shower in the morning and the young man said he was the same as he also prefers to have a hot shower in the morning. The young man said he will try to find out before morning. A few minutes later, he came to the room and .said that we nust let the shower run for a few minutes and, sure enough, he was right as hot water started coming through. So, for the benefit of other guests, remember to run the shower for 5 minutes or so to get hot water. So, it was not a maintenance issue at all.
On the positive side, after I ordered soup/food to be delivered by Grab, there was no crockery in the room nor any cutlery to eat the food with. The grab driver asked the hotel Reception young man for help and the hotel kindly provided a bowl and steel cutlery so I could have my food. This was very much appreciated so thank you to the young man at Reception who was on duty that evening.
Smooth check in procees. Additional breakfast available at RM12 per pax.
Would like to suggest to put harum manis to be paired with the pulut served at breakfast. Because it's harum manis season and more guests coming in because of the international and tourism event in town. If not the season, simple fruit platter would be beneficial as desert.
p/s: You don't have to harum manis the whole year though
Centrally located. We were on the eighth floor of an 11-story building, which offered great views. When I booked, only twin rooms were available, but they offered to switch us to a double when we checked in. The room was spacious, with a large, comfortable bed and four pillows.
There was a lot of noise from the neighboring room (we shared a connecting door), you could literally hear every sneeze. Luckily, the neighbor checked out later, and the noise stopped.
Breakfasts from 7 AM were good, with about 5-6 hot dishes, cereal, rice porridge with toppings, stewed meat, rice, and noodles.
On the downside, there were very few power outlets in the room – only by the kettle and TV, and the one by the TV wasn't working (though credit to them, they sent someone to fix it right away). The internet setup was terrible; I had to connect my laptop and all devices through my husband's phone. The plumbing was old, and the bidet faucet was broken.
When we asked about the local bus stop, they said there was one near the hotel. Good thing we didn't listen and still caught a bus from the actual stop. I wish the concierge staff were more informed about local transport.
Nice hotel nearby kuala perlis terminal ferry..seaview room. Breakfast is a very limited choice. But it tastes good . The balcony is dirty with the bird poop

suka sangat rumah bersih cantik tenang, ada homestay lain jugak dekat sebelah, coway semua ada machine basuh semua sangat selesa to stay there will definitely come again inshaAllah bilik luas, ruang tamu pun luas nak bbq masak masak pun bulih
Overall, the stay was okay. The hotel is very near to Kuala Perlis Jetty, making it a good choice for travelers who need a place to overnight before catching the early ferry. The room cleanliness was quite good, and the staff were very helpful and friendly. The only downside is that the hotel does not have a lift, which may be inconvenient for guests with heavy luggage or mobility issues.
With a stay at Chek Embun Homestay, you'll be all set to unwind after a day of travel.
Guests arriving by car can use the property's parking lot.
