Room was clean and a good size. Sheets, towels provided. Reception staff could not have been more welcoming and helpful - and were excited for us to see the best of the city and surrounding area. Extremely convenient for many attractions of the city - right on the waterfront, and almost directly opposite the Assembly buildings. Chinatown is just behind - with many delicious options for food. Fantastic.

Location & character
Loaded with character and charm, in a banging location right on the waterfront. Enjoy a cup of tea on the balcony overlooking the river.
The staff were really friendly and helpful. The rooms are decent enough and great value for what you get.

The location is everything you could wish for !
I am a "senior (over 70), solo, budget traveler" and I really enjoyed my stay here.
Reminder this is a "Lodge" and not a "Hotel" so don't go expecting "fluffy white towels, free bottled water, complimentary toiletries, tea & coffee options or a breakfast room"! I had a room on 1st floor (there is no Lift) which was quiet and smoke-free.
The Reception is available 24/7 and has a myriad of fascinating antiques and curios to peruse. I found the young Gabriella incredibly helpful with activity and food suggestions and with assisting me with transport needs ( I don't have Internet to access Grab transport).
To me, it's all about LOCATION, right opposite the waterfront where every night is a full-on food, music and light show. Strolling along the promenade was my nightly indulgence, but I could also use either of the balconies at the lodge to sit and peruse the activities if I was tired or there was a 'down-pour'.
Immediately next door is a 7/11 which is open 24/7 for hot & cold food and drink options. I went down every morning for my first coffee (cost 3.50RM which is less than $1.50 AUS). For my daily breakfast, I went to RAW Juicery @ The Ranee Hotel (5 doors down heading to left from the Lodge) for fresh juice, Acai Bowl and coffee. They are a Vegan Restaurant offering Brunch & Diner options. They open at 7am.
The Ranee Hotel itself offers bookings for Tours and Attractions.
The Lodge is very close to the Information Centre (walk left) and is a short stroll away from Chinatown (Harmony Walk) and India Street and a large shopping mall.
Indulged in massage from the Blind Massage Centre on 2nd floor of this mall and had my Hair washed (40RM) and Nails done !
Can't recommend this accommodation enough and felt it was good value for money.
If you want 'luxuries' though, go elsewhere and pay for it !

Overall, this place is worth considering if you are looking for an affordable stay in a prime location on the waterfront. However, the property and room condition reflects the lower price with the room and bathroom being a bit dirty.
Pros: location, price, walkability, proximity to food and stores, good AC, clean comfortable bed
Cons: the room is incredibly dated and peeling. The room is also not that clean. It was clear that the bathroom had not been cleaned. The ensuite bathroom also was not fully separated by a wall which didn't make sense. However, the bed sheets were clean so we stayed.
