Need 200% of improvement!

Give us 4th floor, climb up all the way, no lift provided. First room aircon have bad socks smell, technician feedback it's he paint smell, this meaning their aircon is function with paint. Second room like a sauna. Third room ok but not clean. If you want to have a very bad experience recommend stay here.

Accommodation conditions is ok! But no lift service on the day of arrival, and astro not available on the time maybe due to pandemic, cash flow affected. Oh! Remember mid night time the front door will be closed, i went back around 1am, but can call the personnel to open the door, felt bad disturb people's sleep...

総合的に良いです

実際の場所と地図の示す場所が少し違うので最初困った。もう少し歩けばある。設備は古いけど値段相応でいいかなと思います。朝食あるし。シャワーとトイレが同室タイプだから出来たら離れていて欲しい。でもちゃんとお湯が出ます。タオルも知らない間に交換してくれていた。ゲストハウスとしては悪くないと思います。

Nice comfortable bed

Very comfortable bed. Love it. The only setback was a WiFi. You can’t use it in the bedroom, but when you try to use it in the lobby area, it is virtually no speed at all. Please improve on that. It’s very important.

Buen Hotel para un par de noches

Un hotel sin ningún tipo de lujo, pero muy cómodo para visitar la ciudad al poder ir andando a todas las atracciones turísticas menos al templo Kek loc Si, que el autobús lo coges a escasos 5 minutos andando, la única pega el wifi funciona fatal, prácticamente inexistente

Great location, just one block away from the famous teochew cendol. Many local street food nearby. Komtar and shopping malls are only few minutes walking distance away. The dorm room is very comfortable. 2 out 3 water heater is not functional in the public washroom, this is the only bad comment from me. The breakfast served is very simple, and it is cold. Hotel staff should do something to keep the breakfast warm.

Never stay here.

We went for location & that’s the only good thing about Apollo Inn. The staff were unhappy & unhelpful. Three lights were either not going or flashed all night in our room after being turned off. Wifi did not work. We had trouble getting the hot water to stay hot. At midnight we finally had maintenance to disengage the flashing bulbs. When I asked for money back or discount they were absolutely disinterested & couldn’t care less. Very grateful we only booked one night. Never stay there!!
