This area is definitely good for a business traveller. The hotel requires some renovation. The shower curtain stinks this time round during my stay, making the toilet having a moldy smell.

Towels provided were very old & looks very dirty. I don’t feel like using it for drying my body after shower. Highly recommend bringing your own towels. Saw cockroach in our room during the night. Only great locations for dining and drinking.

The room I stayed was spacious and in great condition. It is quite far from Pineng island but the hotel itself is in a great and happening location (Aroma city). I would choose this hotel if visiting Butterworth again
