FU Hotel, Bukit Mertajam - Penang

-
FU Hotel is located in Bukit Mertajam, next to the North-South express highway. The hotel is within walking distance to a convenience shop, coffee shop and restaurants. We were looking for a place to stay in Bukit Mertajam and we decided on this hotel since it's quite new and had decent reviews.

We stayed one night in a superior room that comes with a twin bed, a wall-mounted smart TV, a working desk, air conditioning with individual temperature control, two complimentary bottles of drinking water, coffee or tea making facilities, a mini fridge, an in-room safe, two pairs of disposable slippers, an iron, a hair dryer, complimentary WiFi and basic toiletries. There are only a few channels on TV. However, it does have Astro and Netflix provided you have a login account. Otherwise, you can simply watch YouTube.

The room is spacious, clean and has this modern concept of touch-screen buttons for all the switches. The bed and pillows are comfortable. Each bed comes with two pillows. The bathroom features a sliding door with no lock. The toilet has a heated toilet seat and a bidet with a drier. The shower is separated from the toilet area with its own cubicle. Water pressure is high and the water is initially very hot, but after a long bath, the water turns warm.

When we tried to use the in-room safe, it was locked and we had to get assistance from the front desk. The service was prompt as a lady came right away to fix it. A keycard is required for access to guest room floor. You just need to scan your room card and the lift will automatically determine your floor. Overall it's a pleasant stay.

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...
