“Broadway Budget Hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed April 20, 2012

I stayed here for 2nights on 12&13 april 2012 with my friend. Booked for double room for rm60 per nite and 70 for friday nite. Choose twin beds, with a/c and fan bathroom attached. The room is quite small but it is ok and clean. Located in near the Kapitan Mosque and also near to the Nasi Kandar Beratur. It is a bit noisy at nite with the hotel located near the road but I was so tired I didnt really care and have a sound sleep :)

I was in Georgetown for 4 days so the other night I choose different hotel near the Penang Street just near the Esplanade called Friendship Motel. Overall Broadway Budget Hotel is still ok except for maybe the sound from the road and the room size and the people in the front counter is very nice.

Room Tip: Doesnt have lift and the stairs is very narrow. Try to get room in first floor and the closest to th...

“2 days of sleppless night due to drilling till 7am”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed April 6, 2012

booked at march 9th till 10th, was looking fwd to it till the drilling of the main road right infront of the hotel...the over-rated very friendly n helpfull front desk guys obviously is also very good in their words !!! when asked how come we were not inform when we book the room, their excuse was there are not aware the drilling take all night till morning, they assusre that 10th march will not have night drilling but we were obviously conned ...the drilling went on....a decent hotel must have the courtesy to inform guest but not just sell room for d sake of PROFIT ...what is the point of being friendly n courteous when u cannot even sleep in peace at night during yr holiday ?

“Clean room with a bed”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed March 25, 2012

Located on the upper fringe of little India, this hotel is as basic as one can get. There is no Tel, TV or fridge, but the WIFI is better than expected. If you do not mind the walk up.

The place is cleaned and linen refresh is every 2 days. It is handy to the401E airport and CAT free bus. Many restos around if you like Indian or Chinese food.

4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 23, 2012

Stayed here in January 2011 and was really happy with this accommodation.Very friendly staff on front desk and very helpful.Loved being in "Little India" for the food and ambiance. Just out the front door there is an Indian vendor for "Chai and snacks" and cheap.
Highly recommend this Hotel.

“Find Another Spot”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed February 21, 2012 via mobile

Bed bugs. ... bed bugs!

Towel was the funniest excuse for a towel I have ever seen. I don't know why they even give it to you. Imagine cardboard paper with holes in it.

My clock was still on Thai time so I accidentally checked out 30 minutes late and they charged me 20 ringgit on a 40 ringgit stay. Not very nice of them.

Cheap and decent location is about the only bright spots.
