Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and a shared lounge, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The property is non-smoking and is located less than 1 km from 1st Avenue Penang. I come to George Town for the second time, I will choose this hotel again. The location is very good and brand new. It's really comfortable to stay in the public area. 😌 There are fewer rooms in this store. It's not so noisy. I'm very lucky to be the fifth resident of nio. The toilet and bathroom are separated. The room is warmly arranged. The public area will be equipped with IKEA cups. The three-in-one will be replenished in time every day. Coffee and tea. There are also tableware and microwave ovens. Water dispensers and refrigerators are available in the public area. knowing that I was going to leave the george town the next day, noi also specially asked me to take some coffee. Noi is super good. 🥹🥹The hotel is also great!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰
