Air Asia's hotel chain is expanding to all the major cities.
Just curious...anyone stayed in those Tune hotels before?
What is like to stay in one, worth the money compared to others? Comfortable?
Do you recommend others to stay?
The rooms look rather basic from the pictures with bare cement floor.
I know they charge extra for air-cond, towels, etc which might add up to quite a bit.
Notice the one in KL, junction of Jalan TAR and Sultan Ismail seems to be doing well.

Came across this review of Tune Hotel in KL.

Feb 2, 2009 Tune Hotel is probably the worst hotel I had ever stayed in, whatever I paid for is not worth a single cent.

The rooms were extremely small, if you put two pieces of luggages in it, you can't move. You will have to move your luggage else way before you can walk out of the room or go to the bathroom.
The cleanliness of the room is horrible, as if like the 50s or 60s hotel. And the room I stayed in smelled funny, it is like something is rotting away.

I heard some funny noises throughout the night, keep repeating. It started with the sound like a big metal tray with some metal tools inside dropping to the ground and follow by loud noises of people talking. It went quiet in about 2 to 3 minutes, and after that the whole process repeated itself again in about 10 to 15 minutes interval and in the exact same sequence. This happened for about 4 to 5 time through out the night.

I later learned from some friends that Tune Hotel was a hospital before.

Scary!!

Most single rooms in Penang Tune are without windows it seems.

Just checked in to this new hotel in Jalan Burma & unfortunately most of the single rooms have no window. This is a major disappointment when one has issues with air conditioning. Rooms which have no windows are a major concern for those of us who prefer fan cooled rooms. No mention is made of windowless rooms except on FAQ section whcih is obviouskly not accessed unless one has a question! I believe windowless rooms are important enough to mention on the booking details section when a single or double room is requested.l Otherwise the hotel appears clean & the rooms are a lot bigger than at the new Tune hotel at LCCT, KL. I would have stayed at my preferred backpackers in Lebuh Muntri if I had known about these windowless rooms.
