I rate this place as average because, to be honest, I expected a place that would be far better based on the rave reviews here.
I had a single room that I stayed in for two nights and it was basic but clean and very quiet, despite it being next to reception/near the front. The problem with this room was that it was pretty much the furthest from any bathroom and slightly inconvenient as I needed to walk past guests/reception to and from the bathroom.
There wasn't anything special in the room to make it feel cosy (no wardrobe or TV), though there was a desk and aircon/a fan.
The location is excellent, and very close to everything that Melaka has to offer.
Although I had a reasonably pleasant stay (and the staff is friendly), I did expect this place to be absolutely amazing as it's listed as number one on TripAdvisor in its category. I have stayed in hostels around the world, and this wasn't any better than some of them.
Not a bad option, but I'd say for slightly more money, you would be able to get better value elsewhere.
