Great staff. Hospital levels of cleanliness. Hotel is above a coffee shop so free coffee with every stay. Don't try and go directly to the hotel to book. They don't have a reception.

The check in and check out SOP is good. The room is very clean and very comfortable, the location is strategic, inside very happening area It is 3 minutes away from the Kek Lok Si Tempe’s cable car. In the morning, there are various foods nearby, walking distance to the famous laksa. Very recommended to those who want to visit Kek Lok Si Temple.

Shane and Xin Pei were the perfect hosts! The place is well equipped, wonderfully located, and very very clean! They were very accommodating and even allowed us to shower + leave our things while we explored before we checked in. They have great advice and recommendations and I cannot have asked for a better stay in Georgetown! The night markets are literally just outside and you’re a stone’s throw away from all the great cafes and bars. They even thoughtfully included earplugs just in case it got noisy (it didn’t). I highly recommend staying here the next time you’re in town :) I know i will be back!

The hostel staff was very welcoming and kind. They also prepared an itinerary for us, which was really nice! There is free water, coffee… The rooms are clean and have everything they need. The bathroom facilities were also clean. We lost something there and the staff was so kind and sent it to us all the way to Kuala Lumpur - all in all, very good price-performance ratio, nice staff and cozy environment.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
