V Hotel Melaka (Near Jonker Street)

If you want close to Jonker Walk it's close. If you think the cost is worth it look elsewhere. We're checking out this morning to go elsewhere as there's a VERY LOUD generator outside our door that allows you no sleep. It bangs LOUDLY when it comes on, hums LOUDLY for 10 seconds, stops for a moment then start again. We are currently experiencing this since before 2am and it's now past 7am and the banging/huming hasn't stopped since befire 6am...over 150 re - starts and counting. GO ELSEWHERE!!!

I arrived at 5:53 PM and was shocked to find no receptionist at the front desk, despite pressing the doorbell more than ten times. I was already feeling unwell during my ride to the hotel, and having to wait outdoors made my condition worse. Only at 6:25 PM did a staff member finally attend to me — without a single apology. To my disbelief, she walked out with her hair wrapped in a towel, clearly having just washed it. While I understand that staff have breaks and personal needs, it would have been basic courtesy to leave a note informing guests when the reception would reopen. Most importantly, please do not claim “24-hour front desk service” on Agoda if you cannot provide it. That is misleading and unethical. I’m also unsure if my room’s location (next to the staircase by the entrance) contributed to noise, but I could clearly hear traffic sounds from the road throughout the night. Other points to note: - A RM100 cash deposit was required with no prior notice. - Front desk staff were unable to properly communicate in conversational English. - Room size was spacious compared to other budget hotels I’ve stayed in overseas. - Space layout was underutilized — could have fit a dining table and chair instead of just a standing table. - The “Smart TV” could not connect to any network or analogue channel — effectively unusable. - Cleanliness was questionable — visible dust on table and floor; stains on blanket and walls. My sinus (allergy from dust) came not long after I checked in. - Air conditioner was noisy and made strange sounds at night. - No fridge provided. - No toothbrush or toothpaste provided. - Only saving grace is the location, is nearby lots of eateries, mini-mart and 10-15 minutes drive away from lots of touristy area.

Terrible toilet. Air-conditioning good. Water low. No lift have to climb 3rd floor. No front desk staff. Walking distance to dim sum shop.
