River One Guest House

I find the place ok, but the manager william has no clues of his job or he just dont even care or bother abt the quality of his job, Maybe this is why he is not up to a standard, he dont even know abt malacca well enough when you ask him certain locations, he will just throws you a map, Is he underpaid ? Well the owner of the Guest House ( Mr Chong ) are more friendly and helpful, But you only see him in the weekends.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
when I read about a luxe twin double room, I expect something different than what I found: a room, with no window, a noisy airco, without a fan, with cardboardwalls through you can hear every thing in the next room. the view of the hall was nice and happily there was a roomcrene so you do not look into the toilets right away... people nice. recommendation is depending of the kind of people. to some i would recommend, however it is in the state of quality quit expensive.

GREAT LOCATION

An unpretentious homely guesthouse at a very convenient location. Within walking distance to most sights and food alleys, jonker walk etc The room is of a decent size and clean. No issue on the shared bathroom which is clean and neat. Loved the lounge area along the river pavement and the bright & airy common area on the 2nd floor. Overall we had a pleasant experience at RiverOne

位置非常方便

這間民宿在河畔，環境很舒服，管理人很友善，很樂於助旅客，設備也好齊全，最好是非常近遊點，很方便。有多餘時間的話，在河邊欣賞夜境也是值得。
