    A unique place to stay at the heart of Melaka town

    A very unique place to stay. The design is interesting and has its character (I love the concept of 'room names'). Comes with private car park, free basic refreshments, and a rooftop terrace that is nice to hang out. The room comes with a nice desk setup that could appeal to remote workers. The place is clean, comfortable, and relatively quiet. It's also walkable to A Famosa.

    Friendly and cozy hotel in a quite residential area
    • Leisure trip

    • Deluxe Twin Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    The hotel is situated in a quite residential area, slightly away from the old city centre (15 min walk or easily by Grab, mind that some streets in Malacca doesn't not have good pavement for pedestrans) The rooms were half the size of our previous hotel but we loved it twice as much. It was not luxury but did offer all basic things you'd need. The room was clean and the staff were friendly. We highly recommend a nearby restaurant cafe "W&L Restaurant Cafe" for its Sarawak style food, sweet and lovely hosts and atmosphere.

    The accoustic in the hotel is not the best so when other guests make a lot of noice, you hear it very well.

    Beautiful boutique hotel. Nice room and comfy beds. Airco and fan worked well. There's a kitchenette you can use with complimentary water, tea, coffee and snacks.

    Although classified as hotel came across more as a hostel with an itemised inventory of items in room and cost if needed to be replaced . Once booked in very little staff interaction . Shoes off on entering , no handrail on stairs .

    Decor very individual , smart & clean .

    Extra reading light in the bedroom will be great. Too dark to read at night. New bedsheets, pillows and quilt will make a big difference to the comfort level.

    Well kept, clean and lovely interior with plants and photo frames. Home away from home. Staff friendly and helpful.

    The only thing we thought was a little strange, was the fact that there was no room in the bathroom but just like some mesh. During the night we heard some noise because of this.

    A very nice stay. Really good location, nice room, good bathroom, clean, really nice people working there.

    It wasn't a problem for us but do note that there's no lift. And not too sure what was wrong but the day we went, the hot water wasn't working well.

    The room was comfortable and large. Well appointed and suitably furnished. On site parking was a bonus. You can also help yourself to the simple snacks provided at the lobby

    It is ok for young people stay top floor which is to walk up staircase. As eco friendly, as advised to switch off air von when leaving the room. It could be very hot when we get back and turn on the air con. as we stayed on top floor.

    The hotel tastefully decorated. About 15 mins walk to most tourist sights as well as close to the bus drop off ( medical centre)
