Penang team manager Ang Lay Heang said she was satisfied with the facilities at the hotel, adding that the rooms were comfortable and served the needs of the players.

Hotel director Datuk Tan Huat Sheng, who was present to welcome the guests, said he planned to open similar hotels in other towns using the name ‘Fuller’. “I am aware that hotels are springing up all over the city but I hope this comfortable, affordable business and leisure hotel will attract locals and tourists alike.
