Hotel close to many restaurants

The room was clean and the air conditioner working well. The bed was comfortable too.

However I like to suggest the following improvements.
1) The kettle does not work despite two changes of kettle. Do provide a working and reliable kettle.
2) Water pressure was low which made taking a shower a little troublesome. Increase the water pressure.
3) Install at least 2 more 3-pin power sockets.

Do it right the first time

Nice hotel close to cafes.

Hotel is clean, strategically located. Basic amenities. Air conditioner not cold enough and needed to turn on the ceiling fan as well. TV limited channels.

Worse hotel facilities ever

When i went in to the room it was hot then i switch on the air conditioner in the room then i realise the air conditioner position is far away from the bed and the fan could not able to reach bed and i had to switch on the fan to get myself comfort. Then the air conditioner is not cold at all , then the whole room only got 1 power point to charge phone only ... and also the parking ramp to floor above and below was just fit for small car only when bigger car go in have to reverse down to outdoor parking

Poor standard

Renovation work was going on without prior information when booking the hotel. Too much noise like hacking, drilling and hammering. Beds was too hard and pillow was too soft. Only one pillow given. Had to change the room 3 times

Food outlets right outside hotel

Value for money. Staff were friendly and polite. There's leaves on the carpet floor in front of my room. Not so clean. Suggest to put a divider or class door to separate the shower area n toilet. My whole bathroom floor was wet after shower.

A simple Hotel

This was my 3rd or 4th stayed, is a simple hotel best with not high expectation. Usually I will request for a non-smoking floor and not facing the pub side due to I was once staying facing the pub and end up couldn't get my sleep and asked for a room changed.
This time I did my booking through Expedia request the same for a non-smoking room, high floor quiet room and important not facing to the pub.
During the late check in around 1am (due to flight) I mention again to the front desk that I did request for a quiet room that not facing the pub and non-smoking room!! Front desk (malay-man) told me that the room was facing to the pub but will not be that noisy caused is at the high floor. I thought so... to disappointment the room I stayed was only at the 5th floor 3 floor down to the pub.... and from the corridor to my room was smelled of cigarettes and so as my room!!! Cigarettes Smell was so strong and 2nd worst was the loud music from the pub... is was so clear and loud able to heard people singing birthday songs. It is worst during Friday & Saturday!!!! A stayed for 3 nights didn't asked for a change of room thinking the smell and noise might not affect much... but is a big disappointment... and mistake for not changing my room...

Ants crawling

Basically the location is ideal. However, the room condition is very bad. As this is my second time stay in Aroma, there are ants crawling on the table same with the first time and the furniture is torn pieces here and there. I experienced strong wind and flood during my stay in Aroma. The dust dropped everywhere from the window on the floor, clearly, the window is not properly cleaned.

I was stay in this hotel at room 6032. The air-con condition really is bad. it was no working at midnight timing roughly 2am - 4am, after that, it working again. and also I feel upset I paid for this rate but the room was not provide indoor slippers. I really don't understand why not provide note pad, pen and indoor slippers for guest.

Good enough for short stay. Not much amenities provided by hotel (swimming pool, gym, kids play area). I just stayed for one night & spend more time outside hotel. The room is very clean & spacious enough for family. Hotel location also quite far from town, thus only suitable for guest with own/rental car.

Nice, no-frills hotel.

The place is very near some nice restaurants, including a 24-hour Starbucks! My room was not very sound proof, so do be mindful to bring your own earplugs if you are a light sleeper. I didn't need any though. The hotel was generally clean and comfortable too!

Unpleasant stay

Housekeeping threw away my facial cleanser. Reception promised to call me to update status if they could find it but I never got a return call.
Room was dirty even after housekeeping cleaned it and they even left some used plastic wrapper in the room.
I feel that Aroma Hotel should honour what they promised and not just pay lip service.
