We exceeded the check out time so we have to extend our length of stay. However queue is very long with only 2 counters open and slow moving. How long do we have to queue up?! 2 hours? 3 hours? So they could charge us more for the hours we extend?!

The rooms are very, very small, even the most expensive ones on OTA, it's difficult to even open a medium suitcase, let alone space for prayer. If you order the newest room type, you will get tower 3 which is a long walk to the far end, tower 1 is near the lobby. Check in, queue for hours, just get ready. The old and oldest hotels only have facilities following modern upgrades. Recommended for those who want to go to Genting Highlands, it's the closest to anywhere, if you want to be comfortable staying for a long time in the room, it's not recommended unless it's just for resting.

The check-in procedure is cumbersome. Customers who book in advance also have to wait in line for a very long time (2 hours). No WiFi, wc and tiny bathroom just enough for 1 person to enter. Dry thin towel. Very poor support staff.

The first time staying here, the service of the staff (Mr. Atit) was very bad, guests had to check in at their own machine because if they checked in at the reception there was an extra fee of RM 15, when checking in at the machine, the machine had an error which could not successfully scan their passport, asked The staff's assistance was directed to the receptionist, when I went to the receptionist, the staff didn't even help directing it to other staff, then when I explained that I had been directed by other hotel staff as well then I was forced to help, without asking about smoking/non-smoking room options and informing me of extra costs If you asked for a floor room, you immediately made your own choice, when you got the room it turned out I was given a smoking room even though I brought my 73 year old parents and 2 small children, I asked for help moving rooms, he was not willing to help for automatic reasons, he was directed again to other staff. In front of me, he also scolded other staff who directed me to ask him for help. He said not to direct hotel guests to him because he was dizzy and not willing to help. Will not stay here again, the worst experience while staying at a hotel, the hotel room is old and worn out, the head pillow smells musty, the blanket has yellow stains. It's a shame for a hotel of this size that the staff service is poor and the rooms are not maintained, the only positive side is the well-maintained lobby and location.

Expensive prices do not match the cleanliness of the rooms, and the rooms are very small. And bathroom equipment is also lacking. This location is in tower 3, and I already noted non smoking, but we are not automatically non smoking, and must choose from among 5 options. Hopefully more repaired. And buying online is a bit difficult.

Meski harga oke dan strategis, saya sulit saat akan check in karena harus mandiri. Lalu kamar serba basic. Tak ada botol, plastik laundry, dan paling mencolok. Karpet kamar tidak benar-benar bersih. Saya menemukan rambut sesorang di lantai kamar. Benar-benar ala kadarnya.
