Quaint and so lovely. Each staff was so diligent and helpful and always with a warm smile. Second level is accessible via stairs but they have ground floor rooms. Amenities include toiletries and there is no hot water for coffee/tea cos the lounge is equipped with snacks and hot/cold drinks. Food is so accessible everywhere else so there is a simple and sufficient continental brekkie, even scrambled eggs if you like, and small packs of nasi lemak. We have a lovely time. Thank you so much. Only feedback is to change to bigger refillable shower/shampoo bottles. Thanks so much team at the Edison! Thanks for taking care of us :)

This hotel aims to please and the manager is actively involved in everyday operation. Despite the initial room assignment problem it was resolved to our satisfaction and we are particularly pleased with the insider recommendation of places to eat and visit. Our trip was made so much better just following their recommendations. Areas for improvement is there’s no full length mirror and plug for hair drying in the toilet. Drying at the plug in bedroom is inconvenient as there’s no mirror. Plug placement are not well thought out and finally room soundproofing is bad. Areas that was a hit - 24 hour lounge was great, beautiful design and spacious room.
