土足禁止でかなり清潔でした。 泊まるだけなら十分だと思います。 スタッフも淡々としていて、かといって冷淡でもなく適当な距離をおいた大人の対応で好感がもてました。

館内は静かで、その点は良かったが、洗面台が使い辛いことと、ベッドに南京虫がいたのには辟易した。

Excellent location within Georgetown, 3 minutes walk to Komtar. Just next door to many restaurant and food stalls. Nice and friendly staff. Satisfactory washroom and room cleanliness and could be improves. E.g.: Room floor was not being mopped. Zero sound proof room. I stay at the ground floor and because the upper floor is wooden made, the sound of foot steps upstairs are loud and clear. But what to expect, its a budget stay after all. What's nice about the room is that the air-conditioner works well, and there is a fan as well. Recommended if you are on a budget travel.

ห้องไม่เก็บเสียง ได้ยินเสียงเดินเสียงคุยกันจากห้องอื่นๆตลอดเวลา ไม่เเนะนำให้พักที่นี่เพราะคุณจะไม่ได้พักผ่อน เพิ่มงบอีกนิดเลือกโรงแรมที่ดีกว่านี้ดีกว่าค่ะ

ドミトリーに泊まりましたが、値段からしたら満足です。 部屋やトイレもきちんと掃除されていて、気持ち良く使えました。 ただ、ドアの側のベットだったので、開け閉めの時起きてしまったのが残念なのと、Wi-Fiが遅いです。

We booked 2 double rooms, our rooms are clean but my air con remote was broken and I already informed the girl at front counter but no action I got to borrow from my friend's room. For our rooms location need to claim upstaire and staire case very high Toilet a little bit dirty. They provide towel if you ask. The location very good next steamboat restuarant and street food just in front of the hotel. Nearby shopping mall just walking distance.Cheap and value

Place has a nostalgic feel. The reception person was nice and polite. The room is sufficient for (very) short stay. You get what you pay for so no complaints from my side. Just a bed with thin mattress and even thinner pillow. The pluses are the aircon is cold so in humid Malaysia, that's heaven sent. Situated on the ground flour, my room hasn't a window, so that may not appeal to everyone. The other major plus is it is right in the heart of Georgetown. So, almost everything. Is within reach. Step out and street hawkers are everywhere. Overall, suits younger traveller and short stay traveller. A plus on the balance.
