Generally Jen is a great hotel where I usually stay when I'm in Penang due to the location. What didn't please me was due to the water disruption issue, the hotel immediately shut down the use of the sauna & steam room. I really didn't appreciate this. When a hotel does this, guests should be compensated in other forms.

I had the most pleasant stay here. The hotel staff were very friendly & accommodating to my request from housekeeping to reception. Room was clean, I had the family room which had a sofabed for my children. The hotel is within walking distance to avenue mall & prangin mall, so convenient. Overall, it was great!

The toilet have a strong stench, stench of urine smell. Sometimes can get quite unbearable. I notice some other people who stayed who commented the same thing. Not sure is sewage related or flushing system leaking or whatever reason! They need to fix this issue asap since you are of Shangri La brand.

Dirty and dusty rooms. Understaffed. Manager hides in his office and doesn't show himself even after room change that took them 4 hours. Not worth the price at all. Toilets are stained with running water that went on through the night. Can get better rooms at this price.
