Clean spacious room with plenty of hot water in the shower, steady wifi signal, large and relaxing common area with tea/coffee, cookies and delicious bread from the oldest bakery in Penang. You cannot beat the location, it is so close to many attractions and food stalls, and yet it is quiet and peaceful. The host is very hospitable and helpful. Excellent stay, do not hesitate.

It’s a new accommodation in town but doesn’t have the freshly renovated smell at all! The bed is very comfy and I slept like a baby throughout the night. It’s a shared bathroom hotel but the hotel only accommodates dozen of people at the same time thus they are cleaned and well maintained. Very close to the hot tourist spots and restaurants. A cleaner is here to keep the whole place hygienic. Not to mention the indoor plants make the space really nice and green. Would love to stay here again.
