    A superb location and a friendly (if basic) hostel

    I would recommend this hostel for the location (easy walking distance to all the local sights, sounds, and tastes), price, and really friendly atmosphere and helpful staff. We couldn't get the hot water to run, and we were only issued with one small blanket type...More

    Malaysian Hospitality at its best

    I can't stop smiling. I've rediscovered this gem after five years, and I should have used it long before. Well - hmm.....what can I say. Its NOT Buckingham Palace, and its not meant to be. Theres something beautifully random, chaotic, yet organised about the building...More

    Same street as SMK kebangsaan St Francis. It's a bit difficult to find for non Melaka's. It's worth finding because it's so close to the city and yet feels so far. The Area is called Kampung Bandar Kaba.
