Desa Pelangi Condominium

Opt for the more expensive unit the staying experience will be much better haha. great location not that busy. if you are keen to walk. Within 10 min walk radius there is alot of hawker stall at night. and if you are fan of ghee hiang, once check out can directly drop by before heading back home.

At Desa Pelangi Condo, i believe they are three types of suite; Deluxe, Superior and Boutique. We go for Boutique suite. Our family entourage; me, husband, mom, dad and grandma. The suite is spacious and comfy enough especially for my grandma. This is not a hotel so there will not be any reception desk. We are greeted by a staff named Cheong at lobby. He asked to give him a call 30minutes prior arrival, so he could get ready for us. There are also fine print (Please read them guys); 1. Check out at 11 am. We check out earlier since we attending family wedding on that morning, but i believe we can negotiate up until 12pm. They allowed late check out with additional cost of RM20++ per hour. 2. Suite facilities. They provided complete standard set of suite facilities in a tiny room; hair dryer, iron board, 2 extension cords, and mosquito repellent. Please put it back there before you check out. 3. Dishes. As per other traveler review, you have to do the dishes before check out. But fret not, they provide dishwasher if you too lazy though. 4. Deposit of RM 200 only. They will do necessary check up during your check out, to ensure all the dishes and suite facilities is in order as per agreement. then they completely return the deposited money. They also give me special discount for our next visit! ;) yeay!

This is the first time I stayed in a service apartment in Penang. I am impressed with their efficiency from check in to check out. The apartment may be a little dated but everything is well maintained. I booked a 3 bedrooms apartment and we have been allocated with 2 parking lots. The check in office is located in the building at level 3. We were provided a baby cot upon request. As there is no housekeeping service, we have to bring our dirty towel to the check in office for 1 to 1 exchange. The process was pretty straightforward. Location is good as you can get food easily within 5mins walk.
