Hotel Seri Malaysia - Penang

-
Hotel Seri Malaysia is located in Bayan Baru area of Penang, just 8 minutes drive (4.6 km) from Penang International Airport. Since we arrived at Penang International Airport around 1.30am and we just need a place to sleep for the night, we decided to stay in this hotel. We checked in at 2am and opt for a downstairs room because upper floor only accessible by stairs.

We stayed in a superior queen room comes with a double bed, self controlled air conditioning, flat-screen TV, iron, ironing board, praying mat, basic toiletries (shampoo & bath gel), hot/cold shower, complimentary 2 bottles of drinking water and coffee or tea making facilities. Basic room with thin blanket and there's only one access card per room. My partner went out for a quick late night supper and basically I have to wait for him to come back before I can sleep.

I'm quite particular when it comes to bathroom. So, a hotel with a stained toilet bowl is a big turn off for me. Apart from that, there's an unpleasant smell coming out of the sink. I almost gagged when brushing my teeth. I always enjoy a long hot shower but sadly water here isn't hot enough unless you reduce the water pressure.

Our stay in Hotel Seri Malaysia includes breakfast for 2 person. Buffet style breakfast but choices are very limited. The hotel includes an indoor swimming pool, opening hours from 8.30am to 7pm.

Check in time: 3pm
Check out time: before 12pm

Guangzhou/Shenzhen - Day 4/Day 1 (Luohu Commercial City - Dongmen Pedestrian Street - Sun Plaza)

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...
