The service rendered was great and we are very grateful because we arrived drenched from the rain as we were on a touring bike. The staff allowed us to store our wet clothes, helmets & riding boots as we arrived at 930 am which is before check in time so that we can go eat & drink something. When I asked for newspaper to stuff into our boots so as to dry it, they didn't have any.  However, they gave us a call almost immediately to offer yellow pages which worked just fine. We really appreciate the help!

Great service

Only the location is good.Parking  quite difficult.

I chose this hotel bcos of its mins walk distance to Jonker St. Room, toilet clean. Front desk helpful and friendly. Basic toiletries provided. You can trust the photos on their website, well pretty much alike. Most importantly is it is clean and safe.

Location.. Clean.. Safe.. Convenient

I have been staying at Cheng Ho Residence for years, my favourite. 4 things to improve, pls defroze freezer, make sure tv works, make sure that aircon not warm on Day 1, get Grab recognise Cheng Ho Residence as a location. I like its big room, bathtube, near Jonker Walk.

There is no lift in the hotel, not so suitable for senior citizens to claim 3 floors of stairs.

Hotel not suitable for seniors

Grab does not recognise Cheng Ho Residence as a location on its Grab map, the owner was aware. The switch between shower and bath was faulty, lubricating does not work. The aircon shuts down by itself betwen 1-2am making the room warm and stuff, causing me to wake up in the middle of the night.

Not very clean looking, especially the bathroom. Looked very dated. Our shower head was changed after we were in the room for 1 hour rather than be changed before we checked in (they knew it was faulty). The toilet douche was also faulty as it sprayed out more water from the source than the nozzle, hence flooding the whole bathroom. No shower curtain.Luckily we were only there for 1 night and couldn't wait to leave

Not for long term stay

Overall, the stay is considered pleasant. However, there are some hit and miss e.g. the bed could be damaged and requires a change. The key card slot is not functioning well at times. Wasn't mentioned that the main gate will be locked after 12am. Nonetheless the location is great for tourist wanting to walk around jonker street as it is a stone's throw away.

Weekend getaway

Stayed here for two nights. It has a great location close to Jonker Walk, but a little away from it so it's pretty quiet. The room itself is fine, on the functional side and comfortable enough. It was, on reflection, quite pricey for what it was, but did the job. On the plus side was a genuine King Bed, an effective AC unit and a mini fridge (sadly not as common in other Malaysian hotels as I'd hoped). The shower and bathroom were decent. 

Very steep stairs climbing up to the room, not easy to manhandle a heavy suitcase.

Location is a 5 min walk from Casa Del Rio - if you're coming to/from Singapore, many coaches drop/collect from Casa Del Rio negating a need to go to Melaka Sentral. 

One thing to note about Melaka - finding places open for breakfast is quite difficult. This hotel didn't appear to have a breakfast option, and most cafes don't open till 10am. There are a couple open earlier, but they're not obvious.

Simple but pleasant small hotel

I enjoyed the quietness and spacious room. However, upon arrival at 12 noon, I was informed that I was not able to early check in, despite sending a message 1 month ahead. Due to the pandemic, the residence no longer provide breakfast and housekeeping. By my 3rd and last night, both my thrash bins were so full that I have to inform the receptionist to have someone to clear it. Its wifi connection was at its best. Due to wet weather for all 4 days, I manage to use the room and wifi alot.
