I chose to stay at Savv Hotel because my trip mainly involved staying for one night before taking the ferry to the opposite side, so the location was super convenient.
Upon check-in, however, we had a bit of a rough start. We got caught in the rain and arrived drenched, and while we were waiting to check in, the process felt a bit slow. We ended up standing around for a while before receiving our room card, which left us standing in our wet clothes for longer than expected.
The front desk at Savv Hotel operates only from 8am to 11pm. This limited window is inconvenient if you need to check out before 8am, as you’ll have to wait for a staff to process the check-out and return the RM200 deposit that was collected at check-in.
As for the breakfast, I wouldn't recommend including it in your stay unless you're in a rush like we were. We opted for it because we needed to check out early and head straight to the jetty. Compared to other hotels I've stayed at, the breakfast here was underwhelming. It only started at 7:30am, and there was just one staff attending to everything.
The food selection was quite limited: it was a self-service buffet with breads, 5-6 packets of nasi lemak, and only one food container with a cover inside there were scrambled eggs, sausages, breakfast beans, and small portions of vegetables, then no more, a few CNY mandarins, tiny bottles of milk, juice, and a small amount of cereal, yogurt, coffee.
It was enough to get by, but definitely nothing to rave about.
