My stay at Riverfront Sentral Hotel was pleasant overall. The check-in process was efficient, and the room was clean and cozy, although the damp toilet roll was a minor drawback. The hotel's location is particularly convenient for bus travelers, as it's just a short walk from Melaka Sentral, but it's not within walking distance of major attractions. 🌟
