Good location-close to Blue Mansion and walkable to most locations with main bus route around corner. Our room-105, only had 1 window but we kept it shut as faced back street and air conditioning units which hummed all day/night.also our room was behind wooden staircase so imagine foot traffic noise. Nice shower. Roof too sauna was more of a marketing gimmick as too hot to use! Reception staff were hit/miss but never rude. We would return to Penang and only choose Modern for its location-not that cheap really

everything was great, we are all enjoyable and the room is clean. The only not so good thing is the water heater pump gets disrupted the next day morning, when the increase of usage of water heater.

You get what you pay for. It wouldn’t hurt to pay a few more dollars to get a better and more reputable stay across the street. Wasn’t the most ideal stay as the walls are quite thin, we could hear people walking by the corridor quite clearly in the night. There were quite a few stains on the bedsheets and pillowcases, would definitely recommend checking when you first check-in.
The tables and the whole room were generally quite dusty - if you have dust allergies, consider yourselves advised.
Other than that, the shower floor between the bathroom and the room isn’t properly sealed because after I showered, the water leaked into the room from floor of the shower area.
Also - this hotel doesn’t have a lift. So if you’re carrying heavy baggage, you’ll have to climb the flight of stairs.
I was sold by the first review I read from this app about the hotel but my experience proved otherwise. If you are looking for a budget hotel and don’t mind these issues, or you don’t plan on staying in the room much then it would be a great choice for you.
