Okay so I recently went for a short work related course in KK and just can't resist taking some pics (yes, with my puny secondary phone) of the hotel that I'm staying at. I'd always noticed this eye-catching rainbow coloured building even when I was staying somewhere else within the Gaya Street area (they're right across the street to the Wisma Merdeka shopping mall and within short walking distance to Suria Sabah). So I was glad that my company had 'sponsored' my stay there (I'm claiming the heck out of this) so I can finally satisfy my curiosity of the place.
The hotel itself is your typical boutique hotel, with a small but functional lobby area. Staff were pleasant throughout and check in was smooth (FYI, they do ask for a deposit upon check in which was around RM150 during my stay). And I was happy that they'd given me a room facing the mall since I really like looking down and seeing people just go about their daily lives. The room was also spacious, clean and prettily designed. Kind of old school vibe (then again they had been around longer than most of the hotels within the area) but is still well maintained. I really enjoyed my stay there but if you're bringing a vehicle, parking might be a challenge since there's limited public parkings nearby and very hard to get since the area is congested most of the time (because the hotel is located right next to a busy traffic light intersection). Also, they shared their ground floor area with that of popular local Italian restaurant Little Italy, so do expect a lot of people coming and going especially during peaks hours.
Type - Standard Room
Room - 5/5 (very comfortable room with decent tv channels)
Price - 4/5 (got a good price from Agoda)
Service - 4/5 (again, no complaints)
Decor - 4/5 (loving the hanging lamp decor)
Facilities - 4/5 (oh and if you wanted to use the bathroom while in the lobby, you need to go to the 1st floor to actually get there)
Location - 4/5 (a really strategic but busy area - that's all I can say)
