8/10 Good
"Very nice place that Dorsett has bought but needs some thorough cleaning and sprucing up. Very good air con in the lobby but not always in the rooms. Even though we had to change room, staff was awesome. So friendly and helpful. The people working here are worth the visit. Nice and quiet for now."

8/10 Good
"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."

"Rooms looks old from outside but inside is well maintained. Staffs efficiency at receptions. Buffet breakfast is simple with not much variety but restaurant staffs are friendly. Costco coffee machine at hotel lobby, wherever coffee lovers crave coffee at can buy at machine. Level 1 has hotel swimming pool, gym and kids playroom but you might not use much as Legoland connected with Medini mall has a lot things to do."
