Just got back from Penang | Ascott's momentum is too strong

I was unlucky on the day I went. Since I was only staying in Penang for one day, I just wanted to stay in the city center. The Eastern & Oriental Hotel was extremely expensive/Macalister Mansion was fully booked/Courtyard by Marriott was over 1000 and had no points redemption rooms/Marriott was not yet open. In the end, I chose Ascott Residence.

📍Detailed address: 18, Persiaran Gurney, Northeast Penang Island, Malaysia

🚗Transportation strategy: It's on the north side of the city center by the seaside, and Penang is not big, so transportation is very convenient. It's a short taxi ride away, and I recommend taking a taxi.

🌟Highlights:
1 The hotel is relatively new
2 Good value for money
3 By the seaside, with a side sea view
4 Convenient city walk in the city center
5 Well-equipped downstairs
6 APPELLES amenities are great

⛱Hotel environment:
It's like being in the best state after opening, the environment is more like a hotel than an apartment. Very nice

💰Average cost per person: RMB 350, about 230 Malaysian Ringgit

📌Little Tips:
1 They usually default to upgrading you one level, you can request a room as close to the sea as possible for a better sea view.
2 The sea view from the rooms facing east seems to be better
