"Great value. Full kitchenette. Washer Dryer. Large rooms. Clean. Good amenities. Strong water presdure. Cold aircon. Good wifi. Same building as hard rock. Secured parking. Highly recommended. Only draw back, the entire putri harbour area is quite deserted and hardly any life. Limited food options although there is a convenient store and supermarket nearby. If you have a car can stay here but drive elsewhere for entertainment and good."

"Everything was wonderful. From the staff to the cleanliness and aviation themed interior design of the room, everything was amazing. I will say that the entrance to the gym is through a different lift which was a little confusing. The leg extension machine was also faulty for a new hotel but other than that, everything was seamless and relaxing"

"The apartment is new so everything is nice and clean. My daughter enjoyed playing with toys. They do not have a water dispenser yet in the unit but they did provide bottled water. Some minor issues with one of the aircon units and fridge were very promptly attended to and all was well soon after. Next door neighbour was a teeny bit of a Karen but its ok. We keep coming back to SR Home units at Sunway Grid because of their top level service. I hope everyone who uses this unit will continue to take care of it because it really is a beautiful and cosy unit."
