Very clean. Air con was nice a a cool. The staff we were served by were friendly and helpful. We had trouble finding the place cause it is on the second floor, but I thought ground floor was the first floor. So it's the third level. 2nd floor. It's a pretty good location since it's close to a bunch of stuff. The sinks in the bathrooms of the two rooms we booked drained slowly which isn't great. Don't expect toilet paper. Expect to use the bidet or bring your own toilet paper (then again, we didn't ask for any, maybe they would have given it). Breakfast was provided in our booking, but it was just nasi lemak that was probably tapau from some place nearby. It was fine but just don't expect a buffet or anything. We booked two rooms and they gave us two rooms which had a connecting door between them which was pretty nice. Over all quite happy with the place.

Nice place to stay, good location. Transportation is around. They provided home made breakfast, the only one concern that it starts at 9 am, so plan in advance.

Good value. Convenient location
Near the beach but no beach view. Still gotta walk a bit. Good value for money. Convenience stores, food stalls and bus stop within walking distance. Gets a bit quiet after dark.

1st, place was hard to find. 2nd, you're sleeping in a shoplot converted to rooms. 3rd, tried checking in at 3pm and nobody was around. Had to call the number at the door and waited about 10 mins for someone to show up. That person felt that checking-in wasn't her job. 4th, gave us the wrong room type (had asked for a suite but gotten a duplex. Tried changing but woman who thought this wasn't her job just shrugged her shoulders. 5th, walls was paper thin. Ringing phone at the reception can be heard from all rooms. The good ... room was nice and clean. No amenities though but for the price, it is OK. Windows cannot be opened and you wouldn't want to draw the curtains down as it faces the shop-lot corridor.

this hotel is possibly the worst hotel i've ever stayed in...its basically in a rundown building on the 2nd floor with no checkin procedure..the escalators are rundown and not working...the rooms are so bad theres no windows...breakfast was being cooked in a dirty fry pan and how can you eat from that? i stayed one night and left...its a cheap hotel but for a few dollars more you can stay in a resort on the beach

Windowless Stay
Place was hard to find at first. Its situated in an old mall. I was given a room without window and its a CONNECTING ROOM! Wanted to ask for change but the staff said all rooms were occupied (I dont think so). The family stayed beside my room was noisy during the night. I doubt they stayed there during the day. Room without window is terrible, it was my first time staying in a place like this. Top floor was doing some renovation i supose, I am able to hear drilling sounds. Nearby there is a bar, pumping loud music during the night. No tv channels, just movies played through flash drive.

Reasonable price and stay.
Simple breakfast that you could choose either sandwich or pancakes and people only able to choose one. If not enough, could walk to the nearby food stalls to have more breakfast. The room that I had is come without the window and you won't know the time outside if you close all the light. So far so good for the stay.

Comfortable, Nice, Clean Hotel
It is highly recommended for those who want travel at Batu Feringhi with budget style hotel. Firstly, the environment of the hotel was so nice. You won't imagine there is a such beautiful hotel inside a old building. Secondly, the breakfast provided even just a simple sandwich and maggie, but still delicious. Thirdly, when u stay here, you will feel like just stay in your home.

The best hotel to stay in feringghi
I was sceptical abt the hotel at first. Located in an eary old shopping mall eden parade. But once i look into the room i was amazed. Its quite impressive actually. The room is clean, spacious, beautifully decorated n easy access to feringghi. Very satisfied. Except for the windows thats not tinted n tv with only few downloaded movies. Staff is superb. Would definitely come n stay here again. Kudos.

Our stay in Roomies Suites was GREAT. The property were clean. The rooms were modern and cozy. The staff is well trained to look after all your needs. They seems very happy & liked their jobs. I highly recommend to have breakfast there, the food was simple and good! The location is perfect, convenience and its only take 5 mins walk to a seaside. Seriously, I love this place so much.

Lousy hotel.
The first sign of problems awaiting was when we were told to remove our footwear when we entered the hotel.The floor we stepped on barefooted was not clean. Next we were told that we did not have a window in our room. It was claustrophobic but we were told its a boutique hotel and didn't have windows in the rooms for fresh air to circulate. The rooms were not cleaned on a daily basis. Apparently you had to request the hotel to clean up. Further, the daily breakfast provided was Mee Goreng Mamak. No choice or variety and no eggs were served.

Great Stay, Convenient, Friendly Staff
Value for price since breakfast is included. Strategic location for hanging out at the beach, to have water sports, to have great seafood dinner, to chill for a drink, and to have a night walk at the night market. Nearer to eco adventure / nature parks if interested. Overall, great stay, friendly staff, room not really sound proof, but clean and comfortable. Recommended.
