T'Lodge

Great location however toilet had a serious stench. Overall passable for a night's stay to catch the boat next morning to perhentian.

The room is so dusty making me question whether they wash the linen or not. The worst part is the smell that come from the toilet, every time you turn on the water faucet and it flow to the drain. The evaporation of the stinky smell is horrible & disgusting. I would never recommended anyone to book this . NEVER. It is such a shame considering the place is like a jackpot for tourist since its very close by to the jetty. Eventhou the price it a bargain, the management doesnt seems to take any action regarding all the complained wrote.

We stayed at T Lodge Family room which had 2 Queen Beds, end June when we had to stay for the night before departing to Perhentian Island by Boat. Since we booked with Mimpi Resort, we were recommended by their friendly staff to stay at T Lodge. The Good: - Convenient as Mimpi's office and a Roti Canai Coffeeshop was right below There was ample parking space for our car There is a mosque and many eateries nearby Apparently, we had a safe night despite minimal safety features provided by the hotel Greeted by friendly staff during checki in at 5pm No frills reception Aircon in room was cold Provided bath towels and bottled water. The Bad: Very minimal safety feature like a normal lock for the room door No security guard guarding reception or motel area Pungent smell from the toilet sewerage Toilet pipes rusty Flickering toilet lights Dirty Bedsheets with moldy spots Dusty floor Family room was small without windows Had a scary vibe but we had a safe night stay Only 1 pathetic piece of small bar soap for hands so please bring your own soap/shampoo No Mini fridge Even though we felt unsafe, we still had a good night's sleep. I would still recommend to just stay for the night if you are checking in at Mimpi Resort the next morning due to Convenience sake. Do walk around the area to explore the mosque and eateries. The roti chanai shop below T Lodge was good and had a variety of breakfast menu such as Nasi Lemak and Toast bread.

It's not that far to the jetty. U can book ur boat ride with d Seven Seas which is next door. Cost about Rm70. They also arrange shuttle van to d airport in Kota Bharu, rm25 only. Locals need to pay rm5 for d marine conservation fee & another rm5 for d tax at d jetty.
