"Its location is wonderful but encountered problems with low water pressure in the shower. At times, water pressure was so low that it was impossible to take a shower and had to wait for them to rectify"
"Always a wonderful stay with lyf whenever we visit Penang! Rooms are clean, staffs are attentive & helpful and location is great for my family heading to eateries, pubs, shopping.
GM of Lyf Nixen even became a close friend after so many past trips staying at Lyf. "
"Room is very tidy and spacious for two. I particularly like the wardrobe is inside the bathroom area. View is very nice can see a part of the port. Gym has limited equipments such as the cable machine and dumbbells up to 25kg. Lots of treadmills to do cardio. Staff is very nice. Breakfast menu is okay. There is a variety of food but it becomes dull eating the same things every morning. Overall will recommend this place for stay."
