Our stay here at Profolio @ Straits Quay was one of biggest highlights of our trip. Ken was unbelievable... so nice, very cordial, friendly, helpful, and most of all respectful. This was a definite top notch spot and stay, and we will be back real soon. The area has many resources, includIng a 7-11 around the corner and Tesco down the street that closes at 1am. Its not far from all the attractions, and you can go almost anywhere from there via Grab, very affordable. The accomodation is very roomy, spacious, and comfy. It is situated inside a mall, yet it is very private and secure. Make sure you call in advance to make arrangements to meet with owner. At this point, it would also be a good idea to arrange for airport pickup with owner, if needed. Once you have those squared away, you are good to go. Penang is a wonderful place, including its people... who are very proud of their city. You will definitely enjoy, and booking this place gives you a worry free vacation. Have fun!

The descrfiption mentioned there is hot tub. that is the only reason why i booked this room - for my son. But when i c hecked in, there was no hot tub. When i checed with the agent, she said it's not her problem. previously there was a hot tub, and then they removed it which was obviously a lie. Furthermore she was rude, even before i said anything she became so defensive and said its not her problem. you want to complain, go complain to Hotels.com, this has nothing to do with me.

The first day we had no hot water. The main bathroom was repaired on the second day but the en-suite took several days before we could use it. The TV uses an Android box that had no instructions. 327 channels but no guide and the box had to be reset about 3 times each night. Until we got the manager up we could not see anything but a black screen. A guide to the TV, oven and other items in the room would be useful. Ken the manager was approachable, friendly and helpful but often was off site. The room was comfortable if not a little dated in furniture. The bathrooms (when we could use them) were very up market and luxurious and definitely the highlight of the room. Mattress as is usual in SE Asia was like a rock. Fridge was a good size and very cold but noisy. Microwave is very basic. Oven and hot plates worked ok but took some experimenting without instructions. The air con and fans were very efficient. Second TV in the en-suite was useless. Room is serviced 3 times a week and the washing machine supplied is fine and the balcony was adequate to dry clothes.

The beds were comfortable and the shower nice. This is not a hotel and there is no staff. Couldn't access the pool or fitness center. Its more like a condo you rent from a private person who doesn't leave you their contact info. The refrigerator was not plugged in, warm and stinky, and no way to plug it in. The stove top was dirty. So we didn't use the kitchen at all. The room was nice but it wasn't what we thought we were getting.
