What recent reviews say
Motel Kuala Kedah (SBS Cahaya Motel) suits ferry commuters on a budget. Rooms are clean and priced fairly at RM80–90 per night, with staff who help last-minute bookings. Poor drainage in some bathrooms, thin walls that carry noise, and mosquitoes are genuine drawbacks; it is a basic overnight stop, not a leisure destination.
Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.
