Adequate for a one or two night stay - I booked a single room. Location is good (fairly central) - plenty of food, sights and sounds within its vicinity. For those who need a hot shower, you won't be disappointed.

Except for the location nothing great. Got spoken to loudly but the Bangladeshi cleaner . He set his own rule cannot wear slipper from upstairs to downstairs. He claim I must pour coffee from the breakfast table where one cannot differentiate which is coffee or tea by the way as no label . In my years of travelling around the world this is the first time got spoken rudely n loudly by a cleaner really spoilt your day early in the morning.

The hostel sits on the perimeter of little India. It might have seen its better days.
While the bed is fluffy and clean, bathroom is always flooded with water and difficult to place a foot.
Given the price, it is till a good choice and I would not complain at all.

In the heart of the UNESCO heritage George Town city. All touristy places are walkable - eateries and have paces of visit …. Staff need to attend better to the needs to the guest .

Another great stay. Spacious room with comfy bed. Wifi worked well in room. I got a room facing street, so there was traffic noise. Earplugs can help. Simple breakfast was provided.
Response from Property: Hi Win Bkk, Thanks for your review and we appreciate it, we hope to see you again soon. Have a nice day ahead of you! :)

Excellent access from George Town!
Reasonable accommodation costs include a simple breakfast of coffee, toast, and watermelon.
We would like to stay again : )

The place looks asthetically pleasing . Butttttt , they don’t do regular house keeping . We use public washroom which is shared . The only house keeping they do there is just cleaning the rubbish . That’s all . The walls looks very mouldy and old . We took queen bedroom , the room was spacious . The bed side light wasn’t working . When we first entered the room , I turned on the aircond and ran , I try to put the fan in speed 5 and it didn’t work . I tuned the remote and see there was only one battery .i turned on the hairdryer , wasn’t working , the RV wasn’t working . Quickly called the person at front desk he came to my room to fix the TV . Then he added another battery for the fan remote and plugged the hairdryer to another there pin plug and switch it on and it worked . However my question is isn’t this something they should do before the guest come to their room ??? However the front seat people were helpful and all. But overall not only the washroom but the room kitchen nothing looks clean . I felt very gross the use the washroom . I would rate this hotel maybe 6/10 most importantly for their cleanliness.

A comfortable hotel with a unique design, an attractive atmosphere, a few walks away from attractions, and good service. However, the location of the hotel is very close to the hustle and bustle of the road, and the hotel floor is made of wood, which makes the comfort of the room a little disturbed by the rather loud noise. Maybe this hotel is not suitable for people who are light sleepers, but it is a very good hotel for others, besides the relatively cheap price. Thumbs up.

The breakfast is not good, with just bread and jam that has been left out in the open between 8:30 & 10:00.
The showers were really good, no issue with the temperature, pressure or space.
The bed was so uncomfortable I didn't get a good night's sleep.
Response from Property: Hi, thanks for your reviews. We're sorry, but our beds are more stable and comfortable other than many hostels around Georgetown. Also, our breakfast is pretty decent considering it's just free upon guest's stays with including toasts, coffee, tea, jam, butter and watermelon and is place at the lobby for guests to have access easily. Also our breakfast is from 8:30 - 10:30am. Again, thanks and have a nice day ahead of you!

I had a good stay here.. Location was just right for me.. The space inside the 4-bed dorm was a challenge, but anyways it was afterall a place of rest😊. The safe locker door was big, but the space inside was pretty confusing specially with the charger points inside it.. 🤔I did manage to get my cable through the tiny gap when we close the locker.. If you dont succed in that OMG, you cant charge your devices with the locker closed🤦🏻♂️ and to add on to the dilemma, the locker door opens up on to the pillow as its placed over head of each bed. 😔(May be they planned it thinking of people having to charge their devices safe inside the locker).
Overall I enjoyed it and will definitely recommend😎👍🏻
Response from Property: Hi Aazam. Thanks for your reviews and we appreciate it. And for the lockers, yes, you guess it right. The locker was built that way so you can charge you phone, any gadgets and leave your valuables safe and sound while you go outside wandering Georgetown. Again, thanks and have a nice day ahead of you! :)
