Hotel Ixora, Seberang Perai - Penang

-
Hotel Ixora is located in Seberang Perai, next to Megamall Penang (a medium-sized mall). Basically, I just need to walk over to have my McD breakfast the next day. We decided to stay one night in Penang before heading back to Alor Star from Ipoh. Along the way from Ipoh to Penang, we stopped by Design Village Penang and Hotel Ixora is approximately 30 minutes drive from the outlet mall.

We stayed in a superior room comes with a super king bed, self controlled air conditioning, wall-mounted TV, iron, ironing board, electronic weighing scale, safe box, mini fridge, disposable slippers, basic toiletries (bath gel and shampoo), 2 complimentary bottles of drinking water and coffee or tea making facilities.

Clean, spacious room and bathroom comes with a double sink. Having a great shower should be a basic for a hotel. Hotel Ixora provides good water pressure but water is not hot enough. Hotel facilities includes swimming pool and gym. Overall it was a pleasant stay except for the hot shower.

(Room rate: RM 197 excluding breakfast)

We had planned to check out of the hotel at 12pm and board a train to Dongguan at 1pm to meet with one of Ben's potential supplier. However, the plan was cancelled as the supplier was unable to make it and Ben only notified us after we checked out of the hotel at 12pm. In the end, we did nothing for a half day in Guangzhou and missed the opportunity to see his supplier in Dongguan. Our initial plan was to meet with his supplier in Dongguan and then take the train to Shenzhen. Since the plan didn't work out, we purchased a last-minute ticket from  Guangzhou East Railway Station to Shenzhen Station (Price - RM 65.74 per person for first-class seat). We had our lunch together with Ben at  Chuangshan Restaurant, which is located opposite  Guangzhou East Railway Station . I had goose with roasted pork, while my partner had chicken with BBQ pork. Roasted pork is tasty and goose is flavourful but has rubbery skin. Ben's friend joined us for lunch as well. However, we have to lea...
