The cleanliness is euw. We entered the room with wet toilet. No toilet towel (the bath mat towel). The bath tub had stained and the stopper broken. No plastic on dust bin and no toilet tissue. Worst part was, we left the room for dinner and we got back to cockroaches all over the tables in the room! I called reception to change my room immediately. Luckily I got the new room with a lot better condition. I'm not sure either its the cleaner that don't get the supervision from the superior as it was like nobody is doing the ‘check and balance’ thingy. So prolly the janitor just do their work ‘asal boleh’ because nobody is checking em out. First room I got is 1011 the seaview room (The cockroaches and disaster room). And get moved to level 11 with better condition on cleanliness. Well. Overall. Scary experience as I didn't checked in to motel. So my expectation is way higher than what I deserved. I'm not sure whether that room on level 10 is for those who purchased the promo room. Maybe that's what hotel practice. The double standard for promo purchaser and walk in guest, probably. We don't know. I just assumed anyway. All in all. No second stay or repeat stay in thistle. It may seems so exclusive from outside or on the name. But come on. We have a lot more hotels in jb. Just not this one. I'm expecting their managers to clarify the situation or at least, apologize for the disgusting experience that their guest had. But, none is coming. Not the manager from day shift or night shift. None. Other hotel guys. Just not this one k. Yucks!

Worst hotel I've ever been in. Room was dirty, with mold in the bathroom and cabinets, lizard poop on the windowsill, hair on the sheets, yellow and brown stains on the sheets. When asking for a change in room, they gave us a different one but the quality was not much different. It was clear that the bedsheets had not been changed and the room not kept with basic cleanliness standards. My friend and I ended up simply checking out after changing the room twice. Room was non-refundable and the hotel called me after we checked out simply to verify that there won't be a refund. There was no attempts to rectify the situation. Furthermore, the reception was extremely unprofessional upon arrival. We arrived at 2pm and the man at the counter immediately said that check-in was at 3pm, implying that we should have come back at that time. I had to ask if we could check-in early before he said nothing and checked us in. He also told us that the water supply would be cut off from 12-6pm and nothing was done from the hotel's end to make up for it. Truly horrendous customer service and amenities. Furthermore, the app gave this place 5 stars and misled us into getting a room here. It is a 4 star hotel. However, 4 star standards aren't even met. This hotel should not be up and running. When coming into the driveway, exposed pipes and a big hole was on the ceiling.

Bathroom is quite an important thing for me. I went to the bathroom and saw strands of hair down at the floordrain. I felt that cleaning it before guest enters, is the bare minimum. Otherwise, all okay for an old-aged hotel.
