It’s a great place to relax. It’s near the historical area and within walking distance to malls. There few guests and makes this place great to get away from the hustle and bustle.

Loved the cool and unusual style of this hotel, in a great spot, nice and quiet yet only a short stroll to the centre. Great rooms, good showers and comfy beds. Really liked that they had a water machine in reception. So handy for refilling bottles and kettles and saving single use plastic, excellent hotel and so much nicer than big impersonal hotels.

Noisy
Stayed two nights. At 2:00 a.m. on the second night, some people came in who were talking loudly. As far as I know, the hotel employee did not do anything to quiet them down. He was talking loudly also. The front desk is near my room. After 15 minutes, someone from another room opened their door and told the people to be quiet.

Like the uniqueness of design of hotel and rooms.
Needs more lightings in the room on the 1st floor. A little too dark for my liking.
Also, if possible, more parking for the guests. Otherwise, guests will be fighting for the parking lots outside of the hotel.

The place is clean and it is worth the money that you’re paying. The pool was closed due to RMCO, but it was still not that bad. However walking back from Jonker Street to the hotel at night can be a little scary, as the area is quite quiet and anything could happen....

Nice, quirky hotel
Had a lovely stay here for 3 nights. Melaka in general was a lovely place, and having this hotel tucked away from all the crowds was also great. Our room overlooked a nice garden and was fairly clean. The entrance to the hotel was always really quirky more of a hostel feel which wasn’t a bad thing. The pool was also an added bonus as it’s always nice to cool down after the heat throughout the day. So overall for what you pay this is and excellent little place which I’d highly recommend if your in Melaka for a short stay.
