Great value with a great view
Pros:

At the price I paid, this was unbeatable. My room was nice and tidy with very crisp and clean bed sheets. There's several nice shared spaces to hang out in, that give themselves naturally to engage with the other people who are staying there. The location is absolutely perfect, there's a 30 second walk down to the river, and across the river there's a nice bar, and several fancy coffee shops in the streets beyond that. The view from the deck is also spectacular. Probably the best view in Penang.

Cons:

A bit more attention to cleanliness of the shared bathroom would have been welcome, just basics like a fresh clean daily and replenishing the toilet paper. It's possible it's because I was there out of season, but the staff was notably absent and the fridge with drinks for sale was empty, no breakfast, etc. It was not a problem for me, except it would be nice to be able to buy a bottle of cold water.

Good stay, value for money
Pros:

Staff, Adi/ Eddy is very nice and helped us with money exchange, boat tickets for the slow ferry (because the fast ferry was not going) and other things!
The room is big, clean and aircon works well.
There is a water (hot and cold) refill station

Cons:

We arrived late in the evening and the road/ way leading towards the guests house is very steep up..... nothing bad. But I am supriced none of the other guests mentioned this.
The room is big and then then shower is a bit small..... but good pressure and clean. + Big towels!
Due to Rammadan and low season a lot of eateries were closed and also the guesthouse didnt serve food.
Still we found some places nearby for food.

evergreen lodge our refuge during monsoon.
Pros:

we had a warm welcome and all the interactions from the staff to phillip the owner were great and made us feel at home. warm, helpful and informative. i know where i'll stay when i return to padang.

Cons:

we arrived in the monsoon with heavy rain so the walk up the hill was little precarious. we arrived without notice otherwise they would have brought umbrellas and helped us with our baggage. they provided umbrellas so we were sorted when we went out for dinner and they helped carry our bags down when we left.

Nice stay ✌️
Pros:

The property is well located and not too far by walking from the busy areas.
The staff is very nice and will try to help you organize some activities when possible.

Cons:

The days we went there were a bit messy due to a big booking from a group of 20 people. Otherwise it is a nice place.

An escape high in the hills above Padang
Pros:

This homestay has a fun holiday vibe, in the hills above Padang Old Town. But what makes it an amazing place to stay is the staff -- so positive and helpful and informative. The menu is an interesting mix of European and Indonesian: I loved the muesli and fruit for breakfast, and I honestly had the best vegetarian curry of my life.

Pros:

Wir hatten unerwartet einen der tollsten Aufenthalte hier in unserem Urlaub. Unglaublich nettes Team, super hilfsbereit, tolles Haus mit mehreren Gemeinschaftsräumen, einer mega Dachterrasse und schönen, sauberen Zimmern. Wir haben es so genossen, dass wir aus einer Nacht gleich mehrere machten :)

Cons:

Alles war tip top 👍

Obiekt naprawdę wart polecenia. Za tą cenę świetny standard.
Pros:

Klimat, styl hostelu
Czystość
Ciepła woda i umywalki co w Indonezji w tańszych miejscach nie jest standardem
Lokalizacja - bardzo blisko do Łodzi na Mentawai, można podejść pieszo
Piękny widok
