    Very central location, parking is easy at night, even though morning can be quite crowded. Facilities are super good, modern and new for the price.

    ❶A thrilling and horror experience at this inn, with leaking ceilings and air conditioners, and ❷A strong chemical smell

    Even in a room with a window, the air conditioner would crackle and something would fly around, and the smell of chemicals near the walls made me dizzy and gave me a headache, making me feel unwell. There was also a continuous crackling sound near the tin roof, which caused a short circuit and made me afraid I would get electrocuted.

    There was only one cleaner, but he was efficient and helped me carry my luggage. When cleaning the closed toilet, the cleaner was wearing a white sweatshirt with long sleeves and long pants and used toluene.

    Enjoy the horror experience of insecticides, formaldehyde, and toluene

    I was in a windowless room and had difficulty breathing when a powerful insecticide was sprayed in conjunction with an air conditioner.

    The renovation has made it look good. There was a family guest who hung out their underwear and laundry in the common areas, put a lot of durian in the refrigerator, burnt their toast until it was completely black, talked loudly, and ran around the hallway repeatedly.

    My room’s head shower was loose, so it went down several times and it made me hard to take a proper shower starting from my head. Hopefully you guys can fix it. Thanks

    Cozy and comfortable. I always choose this place to stay whenever I come to Penang. Affordable too.

    I always add something here, no matter how significant and this time is the size of the room as it's a bit tricky to move around and there's almost no room to handle your bag, clothes.

    The location only a few mins to the art street, self check-in, comfortable bed, bathroom, and chat communication with Nana was great the whole time. Thanks Nana!

    The location of the hotel was great , short walk from the centre/ little india and there was a patisserie at the end of the street which was amazing. The room was comfortable and we loved the bathroom/ shower. The room was quite noisy all through the night with there being a communal kitchen right outside. There is 1 washing machine for the whole building which could only be unlocked by reception but we had struggles finding anyone on reception to do this and then trying to get a resolution via direct message on booking.com was difficult also. This resulted in us using a laundrette down the road and paying 100 MYR / £18 which wasn’t ideal however this did include delivery.

    An elderly couple and their daughter hung out a lot of laundry and underwear in the common area, put a lot of durian in the refrigerator, and burned it in a toaster. The cleaners also used toluene to clean the sealed toilets and showers, creating a strong smell.⛓️⛓️poo

    With no windows, the air conditioning was connected to the system, providing a powerful spraying service 24 hours a day. 🪽💨💨😷😷

    The water in the shower did not drain off..

    Amazing location to stay. Everything to see is walkable and it is a very pretty neighbourhood. Perfect for sightseeing! Everyone is friendly and it’s a good value for money. It was super clean and the room has everything you need. Pretty new bathroom. The room we had was without window but we knew that when booking. The room is a bit small but for a few days it is okay!

    The street at night is kind of dark and quiet. For girls, it's better for you to walk with someone

    I like how it was clean and minimalist. The room is also comfortable and the mall is just walking distance
