Hanushini suthasan kamran I booked this hotel for friends, and they really enjoyed their stay. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was very kind and helpful. Everything went smoothly with the check-in, and the location was convenient. I'm happy with the choice and would book it again

It was alright. The location was decent, and getting around Penang by taxi is super convenient. However, it's a bit far from the main tourist attractions. There's a water dispenser on the first floor, which is really handy. I heard there's a really good cake shop nearby, but honestly, the cake I tried was just so-so.

Swings and Pillows is truly in a perfect location in George Town—everything is within walking distance: street art, heritage buildings, cafes, street food, and the heart of the city. It's ideal if you want to soak up the city's vibes without having to travel far or rely on much transportation.

Excellent value for money! The room was spacious, and the whole place was clean and tidy. The owner is a Malaysian Chinese, so you can communicate in simple Mandarin, which is super convenient for Chinese guests who aren't fluent in English. The location is pretty good too; there's a bus stop nearby, and it's only about a 10-minute walk to the heart of Georgetown. All in all, at this price point, it's undoubtedly the king of value for money.

I stayed in the 8-bed female dormitory and had a very pleasant experience overall. The room was very clean, and the blanket was soft and smelled fresh. Each bed had its own power outlet and reading light, which was very convenient. The bathroom was decent and well-maintained, with a hair dryer provided. I also appreciated that soap, shampoo, and facial cleanser were available, and the quality of the products was quite good. Slippers were provided as well. The pantry area was a nice bonus, with complimentary drinking water, tea, coffee, and a microwave for guests to use. Although this property uses a self check-in system, the staff were very responsive and always replied quickly to messages whenever I had questions. When I stayed, all 8 beds in the room were occupied, but everyone was very respectful and considerate of others. The room remained quiet, and I had no issues with noise from other guests. The only small downside was that there are restaurants and bars around the hotel, so music can be heard from outside, especially in the evening. However, I'm not particularly sensitive to noise, so I still slept comfortably throughout the night. The location is easy to find and convenient to access. Overall, I think this is a great option if you're looking for a clean, comfortable, and budget-friendly place to stay. Good value for money, and I would happily stay here again. Rating: 8/10 💖

The accommodation was clean with comfortable air conditioning. The staff provided excellent service. It's close to a variety of food options, and the price is good. It's quiet, clean, and the rooms are affordable, plus it's near a street food area.

Considering the price, this hotel is reasonable for a short stay. It has all the basic necessities, but if you're looking for something particularly comfortable, it's just okay. The main drawback of the hotel is the soundproofing.

Please inform Trip.com the hotel address stated in their record is wrong!! The grab car dropped me off at No. 75, Lebuh Chulia as GPS did not have Chulia street, he thought is the same address I. MALAY words but after I dropped off I couldn't't find the Chulia Street. The correct address should be ”75 Muntri street, George Town, Penang More over yesterday was raining, it passed 12.00am mid night, I had to walk from Lebuh Chulia to your hotel in the rain using my Google Map for more than 15 minutes. Hotel person inchraged also did not take my call when I called for the 1st time to give me a proper instructions to get into the hotel via digital lock at main glass door. It was one hotel guest happened to came back to the hotel n let me got into the hotel. It was the 2nd call he had answered. The hotel is good condition n clean n value for money except for the above wrong address given by Trip.com to get into the hotel especially after 11.30pm as I wasted 1 hour + to walk in the rain. The room wooden door digit lock of room 208 is not in good condition. The shower/toilet issues. # the hot water heater at last cubicle on 2nd floor is leaking at the inlet pipe area, this can cause electrocuted to shower taker. Extremely dangerous. #The toilet paper holder position in all shower cubicles are directly opposite the water heater. All toilet paper are wet.

MMuhammad_Ali_HashemiCertainly! Below is a **detailed, balanced, and constructive review template** for **Hangoutspacez Queensbay** (or a similar budget/co-living space in Penang). Since this isn’t a widely documented property, I’ll structure it generically so you can adapt it based on your actual experience. --- ### **Hangoutspacez Queensbay – Honest Review** **Location: ★★★★☆** (4/5) - **Pros:** Close to Queensbay Mall (5–10 min walk), easy access to restaurants, supermarkets, and public transport. Convenient for business travelers (Bayan Lepas tech zone) or tourists exploring Penang’s south. - **Cons:** Not in the heart of tourist spots like George Town (requires Grab/taxi). **Cleanliness: ★★★☆☆** (3.5/5) - **Pros:** Daily cleaning for common areas; linens provided are fresh. - **Cons:** Occasional maintenance issues (e.g., slow drain in showers, worn-out furniture). Budget vibe—don’t expect luxury. **Facilities: ★★★☆☆** (3/5) - **Pros:** Free WiFi (decent speed), communal kitchen, and lounge area. Good for solo travelers or digital nomads. - **Cons:** No gym/pool; shared bathrooms can get crowded during peak hours. **Staff & Service: ★★★★☆** (4/5) - Friendly and helpful for local tips, but limited 24/7 front desk support. **Value for Money: ★★★★☆** (4/5) - Affordable for Penang (around RM50–100/night for dorms). Ideal for short stays, but may lack long-term comforts. **Room for Improvement:** 1. **Better Soundproofing** – Noise from common areas can be heard in private rooms. 2. **More Power Outlets** – Limited charging points in dorms. 3. **Clearer House Rules** – E.g., quiet hours or kitchen cleanup policies. **Verdict:** A **no-frills, social budget stay** best suited for backpackers, solo travelers, or those attending nearby events. Manage expectations—it’s functional but not luxurious. --- ### **How to Use This Review Constructively:** - **If You’re a Traveler:** Compare with alternatives (e.g., Tune Hotel, capsule hostels). Prioritize location vs. price. - **If You’re the Property Owner:** Address cleanliness/maintenance, add clear signage for rules and maybe create any accessible lockers available to utilize the space in the efficient manner.

GGuest UserI'm not sure what to think about this hotel. It has all the essentials (water fountain, ironing board, hairdryer), but the room is poorly soundproofed – you can hear almost everything from outside the windows. There's no elevator, and you have about 10 steps to climb plus more steps to even enter the hotel (which is tough with suitcases and bags). The common areas are extremely hot, and there's no luggage storage (though it was mentioned in the listing, we just didn't see it). On the positive side, the location is great, and check-in was fast. Thanks!

RRonin tanThe overall experience of my stay was great. The hotel environment was quiet, and the room decor was simple but very comfortable. The bedding was clean, and the hygiene was excellent, making for a very reassuring stay. Every day, coming back to the room felt relaxing, without any pressure. The hotel's surroundings also offered great amenities. There were many food stalls and restaurants nearby with a wide variety of choices, all at very affordable prices. There was no need to specially take a ride to find food. Whether it was for breakfast, lunch, or a late-night snack, meals were easily sorted. With its convenient location, clean environment, and high value for money, it was a very satisfying accommodation experience. If I'm ever in this area again, I would consider staying here once more.

GGuandezhuomaThis hotel is perfect if you're coming by ferry! You can take bus 801 from PENANG SENTRAL bus station directly to the hotel entrance; walking would be a long detour. The hotel is clean and the room is decent. If you're catching an early train the next morning, there's a food court nearby with plenty of affordable and hygienic options. The room has Wi-Fi; just ask the front desk to connect you. The only downside is the poor soundproofing, but everything else is fine!

GGuest UserThis was a temporary stopover near the airport. The environment was, to put it mildly, not great. The shower and toilet weren't separated, and as it's a Muslim household, you can't wear shoes inside, which made using the bathroom quite a hassle. Another issue was the significant noise from the road. However, it was cheap and close to the airport, and the host was very welcoming.
