Ticked all the boxes!
Good standard hotel in an excellent position in the centre of Penang. Reception staff exceptionally nice and happily changed our room to one with a walk in shower - getting on a bit and wary of stepping into bath tubs! Walkable to everything in historic Georgetown & free CAT bus very useful in the heat. Easy access to/from the airport and lots of eateries in the neighbourhood. Had everything we needed!
