Great location! Inside the UNESCO heritage zone, lots of local eateries nearby, public transportation and other attractions. Great budget-friendly option in the heart of Penang! The hotel decor is a little dated but overall nice and clean, with comfortable beds.

Pros:

This place is old and outdated.
Bring your in house slippers, carpet is very old and stained.
Clean in the sense that no roaches or other insects.
Bathroom was updated with newer tiles but There are still some mold around the sink area.. don’t understand why they don’t remove it.
