I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The cleanliness was a big issue, with dirty sheets and noisy walls. However, the friendly staff really helped make my stay a bit better, and I found the price to be quite affordable. If you're looking for a basic place near Legoland, it might work for you, but don't expect too much in terms of comfort or amenities.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the staff was helpful and friendly, the cleanliness of the rooms was a significant issue.

My stay had its ups and downs. The room I first got was quite unusual and not clean, but after I complained, I was moved to another one, which still had issues with cleanliness. The hotel is conveniently located near Legoland, but the surrounding area isn't very appealing with limited dining options. I would suggest looking for better places nearby.

Overall, my stay at the hotel was a good experience, especially considering the budget-friendly price. The staff was helpful and friendly, and the location at Danga Bay was a nice bonus. However, the thin walls and some cleanliness issues were a downside. If you're looking for a value-for-money option and can compromise on some comfort aspects, this place fits the bill.

My stay was quite disappointing. The room was cramped with thin walls, making it hard to enjoy any peace. The bed was uncomfortable, and the overall condition of the furniture was poor. On the brighter side, the hotel offered shuttle services to various attractions, which was a nice touch. However, I would recommend paying a bit more to stay at a better hotel nearby.

My stay at this hotel was pretty disappointing. The room I was given was filled with cigarette smoke despite requesting a non-smoking room, and it lacked basic amenities like a cupboard. The only positive aspect was the ample parking nearby and the convenience of having a 7-11 close by. Sadly, I won’t be returning due to the poor conditions and overall unpleasant experience.

I had a really pleasant stay at the hotel! The staff were genuinely friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. We were a group of 13 and the hotel went above and beyond to accommodate us, including arranging our transportation to the airport. The rooms were decent, but I did notice some issues with paint smell in certain areas. Overall, for the price, it was a great value, especially considering it's in the Danga Bay area with plenty of dining options nearby.

I had a good experience at this hotel overall. The environment felt pleasant and the staff were courteous, which made my stay enjoyable. While the price is reasonable and they offer some great services like shuttle buses and city tours, I did notice that the rooms weren't the most modern and had some issues with sound insulation. Still, if you're looking for convenience and a pleasant stay without breaking the bank, this place is worth considering.

My stay at Golden Leaf Hotel was quite pleasant overall. The hotel is clean and very affordable, making it a great choice for budget travelers. However, be prepared for some noise from neighboring rooms and traffic outside.
