Erg gehorig maar fijn verblijf.
Pros:

De locatie is top, kamers zijn prima en het is er erg schoon! Badkamer fasciliteiten zijn top!

Cons:

Er is niemand aanwezig voor in/uitchecken, alles gaat online.. voelde iets onpersoonlijker. Ondanks dit wel erg vriendelijk en snel online geholpen.
Bedden/Kussens zijn niet fijn.
Voor mij het grootste probleem; Ik verbleef in kamer 1 en ik werd elke keer gestoord door de voordeur die dichtvalt, mensen die langslopen, je hoort zelfs de bovenburen lopen.... ERG gehorig helaas..

Alt i alt et udmærket ophold- personligt foretrækker jeg dog privat bad og wc faciliteter, men det er for egen regning :
Pros:

Lokationen var godt. Fint overnatningssted med planter, malerier og køleskab. Der var også en vandautomat samt AC på værelset. God kommunikation med værten

Cons:

Billederne matchede ikke overens med værelset som vi fik

Perfect for budget travelers or groups, especially for longer stays. Highly recommended!
Pros:

I had a wonderful stay at this hostel. The location was incredibly strategic, just a short walk from 1st Avenue Mall and Armenian Park—making it super convenient for both shopping and sightseeing.

Security was top-notch with code-only access for both the main entrance and rooms, which felt safe and hassle-free. I was impressed by the thoughtful extras provided, including free toiletries, as well as bags, shoe covers, and even snacks and drinks, which added great value.

The common areas were clean, well-maintained, and aesthetically pleasing, creating a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. My room was spacious, well-furnished, and spotless, offering a level of comfort you rarely find at this price point.

This place is definitely value for money, especially for longer stays or groups of friends. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a budget-friendly yet comfortable and secure place to stay near key attractions. Will certainly return in the future!

Cons:

There was a small mishap where I didn’t initially receive my access code and room number, but the owner responded quickly upon contact and provided the necessary details. Thankfully, the other tenants were also very helpful, which made the situation much easier.

Lugar muy agradable bien ubicado para explorar George Town
Pros:

La habitación es amplia y cómoda, la ubicación es excelente y los baños están muy limpios y con suficiente gel, papel higiénico...

Cons:

El baño estaba en la planta baja y las escaleras eran un poco incómodas para subir y bajar. Pero para las personas sin problema de movilidad no es un problema excesivo
