This is an excellent guesthouse and I would recommend it to anyone. The room rates are good, the place is clean and the lady at the front desk was very lovely and helpful during my stay! Breakfast was good too, they have coffee, tea, toast, jam and even fruits (papaya and watermelon). The laundry service was also of very good... More

The building is beautiful, just like you would expect from the famous heritage of Georgetown. It's in the center and you can easily walk everything. The rooms are clean, just like the shared facilities (toilet, bathroom, kitchen, common areas). Breakfast is included and basic (toast with jam, tea and coffee). Drinking water is provided in coolers.

Beautiful building and great location but that could be said for most of the hostels in Georgetown. Clean bathrooms and communal areas. The wifi and hardwired internet are both way too slow and frequently fail completely. Frustrating when trying to Skype or just get local info. Ending up using local cafe so all was not lost but its a shame... More

I've been here for 10 days or so now and staying another 5. It's a really nice place, not too luxurious but very clean and consistent. It's always full. I've stayed in four different rooms so far and they are all equally well equiped. Staff is friendly, stuff runs on time and always the same. The wifi could be better,... More

The place was great, breakfast included, cheap dorm room and the option of a female dorm. Good social area with a tv and films and internet access. However, the staff on front desk were unhelpful and made me feel slightly unwelcome. Plus the gates close at 12pm so arriving back later than that means having to wake up a member... More

we came to stay hear after hearing all the good reviews about the hostle, me and the girlfrind had stayed in Penang in a few other places down the road and in our experince we thought that this one was the better of them. The hostle has got good air flow through the building so it not to hot inside... More

We had a wonderful three day stay here. Thanks mostly to extremely friendly staff who were great with our two year old. Private room with ensuite was clean and very good value; they charged us only 20 ringgit extra per night to put a mattress on the floor for our son. On the edge of the old town, close walk... More

Good location. Great mattress in the double room en suite. WiFi was fast enough but didn't reach to our room. Breakfast was very basic. Bread, jams etc. A little noisy, not too bad where we were. Quite a few smokers (only outside though) Nice building Overall, good price and comfortable enough for a stopover
