Very near to Jonker street and the room is quiet. There is no outside noise to disturb your sleep. Air conditioning is not powerful enough. The mattress and the bed is comfortable and firm. Only one pillow per bed and the pillow is thin.
There is a Shower in the room but Bath gel is provided instead of shower gel. Appreciate there is a parking lot, it’s save a lot of hassle for me

Great service

The service rendered was great and we are very grateful because we arrived drenched from the rain as we were on a touring bike. The staff allowed us to store our wet clothes, helmets & riding boots as we arrived at 930 am which is before check in time so that we can go eat & drink something. When I asked for newspaper to stuff into our boots so as to dry it, they didn't have any. However, they gave us a call almost immediately to offer yellow pages which worked just fine. We really appreciate the help!

Hotel not suitable for seniors

There is no lift in the hotel, not so suitable for senior citizens to claim 3 floors of stairs.

Grab does not recognise Cheng Ho Residence as a location on its Grab map, the owner was aware. The switch between shower and bath was faulty, lubricating does not work. The aircon shuts down by itself betwen 1-2am making the room warm and stuff, causing me to wake up in the middle of the night.

Not for long term stay

Not very clean looking, especially the bathroom. Looked very dated. Our shower head was changed after we were in the room for 1 hour rather than be changed before we checked in (they knew it was faulty).
The toilet douche was also faulty as it sprayed out more water from the source than the nozzle, hence flooding the whole bathroom.
No shower curtain.

Luckily we were only there for 1 night and couldn't wait to leave

Weekend getaway

Overall, the stay is considered pleasant. However, there are some hit and miss e.g. the bed could be damaged and requires a change. The key card slot is not functioning well at times. Wasn't mentioned that the main gate will be locked after 12am. Nonetheless the location is great for tourist wanting to walk around jonker street as it is a stone's throw away.

I enjoyed the quietness and spacious room. However, upon arrival at 12 noon, I was informed that I was not able to early check in, despite sending a message 1 month ahead. Due to the pandemic, the residence no longer provide breakfast and housekeeping. By my 3rd and last night, both my thrash bins were so full that I have to inform the receptionist to have someone to clear it. Its wifi connection was at its best. Due to wet weather for all 4 days, I manage to use the room and wifi alot.

I like the front counter staff as they are friendly and accomodative. The hotel managent totally forgot my reservation thus given me an upgrade, queen bed with a bathtub. Next day, my room was not clean. When approach the front counter, I was informed the cleaner had gone for the day. Do take note the towels as some did have rust stains. Breakfast was below average.

GREAT LOCATION!

Everything was really good, simple breakfast, great location, the rooms were at the further back of the house, so it's not noisy at night. Nothing really to complain much about with the price I'm paying actually. Oh ya, there's no lift in the hotel. If you have large baggage, with elderly or disabilities then it will really be very inconvenient

Great location and wonderful staff

I have a great experience staying at Cheng Ho. In fact, it was my 2nd visit. This time round, the staff showed excellent service by helping us with my kids when we went to buy dinner. Also, one of the staff even went extra mile to safe keep one of the things which my kid left behind and saw us along jonker street on the next day and approached us to return it to us! We were amazed how sharp and attentive the staff is. Great effort!

Homely feel and convenient hotel, with very friendly and helpful staff.

Rooms are very clean and big. 5 of us stays in a family room facing Jonker street, we can see the sunday market from our window which is just 3mins walk into Jonker street.

Only inconvenient is that this hotel does not have a lift, so the 2nd level is not suitable for
elderly as the stairway is very small and steep.

Pluses and minuses

We booked two rooms at the same time but they said they received two separate bookings via Expedia and hence our hotel rooms were located at different ends of the
Hotel. My comforter smelt like someone’s body odour so I asked them to change it. One of the towels didn’t look so clean. My room was at the older end whereas my friends’ Room was at the newly built side. My cupboard smelt musty. We had the ‘attic’ room that had character but faced the road where the noisy Melaka trishaws passed by - it bothered my Friend a lot. Otherwise, the location was fabulous. Just 3 minutes walk to restaurants and Jonkers Walk. Even has parking at the back. The service desk was friendly and helpful. If you stay here ask for a room at the back in the new wing.

Still needs to keep standards during peak season

The room wasn't very clean, but I suspect it was due to the holiday peak season that the cleaning was rushed. I found a used toothbrush behind the sink and the bathtub and table weren't wiped down - there were hairs and sticky marks on those surfaces. Otherwise, the location at Jonker Walk was reallt convenient.

Feel like home!

Felt welcomed and taken care of by the hotel staff. Located at the Jonker walk, this hotel is easy access to Melaka major attractions. The hotel felt like home with greenery around the public area and wooden made furnitures. Spacious, clean and well ventilated bedroom, good water pressure and heating in the bathroom. Local breakfast was served, simple and good. The only part which we think can be improved would be the WiFi reception from our room and the clarity of the TV channel. We will recommend this place to our friends and family. Thank you!

Comfortable, clean , quiet, and bid enough

I would say that it is very worthy in such high quality, just like the title of my view.
However , wifi cannot work steadily, I could not use it for a very long time. And the hotel out of power at several times at night , maybe it is bacause of the violent storms.

Good holiday

We booked a family room for 4 but the room we got has a faulty door. We were stuck inside the hotel room for half an hour before help came. After that we were transferred to 2 twin sharing rooms. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. The hotel is located at a very convenient spot. We had a great family holiday.
