Home Sweet Home in Penang”
We felt like we are at home and the dwelling was so clean and neat.It was simple and decorated in minimalist concept.We stayed in 2 room unit, and it has 1 sofa bed in the living room (with a comforter and a pillow).There were extra pillow in each room too.There were 2 door fridge,washer dryer,microwave and induction stove.The only challenge is the parking space especially if during the day.At night we used the available parking space just beside the building.For nasi kandar lover, you can just walk (or run) to join the long queue of Deen Maju Nasi Kandar (the sotong goreng were so nice and cheap!!) and walk to Famous Kopi Peng Aunty! 1st Avenue is also 2 blocks away, 7 E, spa and yes in Penang you got to walk a lot!Overall, I highly recommend this hotel to family with older children and elderly who can climb stairs. Staff were sooooooooo friendly and helpful.Thanks naaaa!Nanti cek mai lagi dok sini!50 stars!!

Superb and worth the money”
The location is really good. It's walking distance to the komtar the top. There are many night eating stalls which are just 5 min walk. Morning eating stalls are even nearer. When i saw the negative reviews stating that it's noisy because of heavy traffic, reception not at the hotel site, it's absolutely not true. Though there are traffic around, the windows are quite sound proof. Not much sound as mention in one of the review. Reception staff are friendly, the hotel we stay can accommodate 6 adults and 1 child! The area are so clean which is to my surprise. It is comparable to a 5 star hotel in Singapore. Amenities are all provided including washing detergent. It is out of my expectation. One negative area is that there are many ants at the kitchen table which i feel is a small issue to us. It's really worth the money to stay such a big apartment which has 5 star standard. Thumbs up!

Everything is perfect but...”
The room itself and the facilities are exceed my expectation. Applause on that. No car parking provided so you need to find it yourself behind/besides the alley/road. The only problem is that I had already notify the hotel on my late check in (around 10.15 pm). I was informed that apparently the lobby is closed after 9.40 pm and was given a phone number to call 15 minutes prior to my arrival, so that person in charge could come with the room key. I keep on calling the number given as soon as approaching Penang Bridge until arriving at the hotel but to no avail. Then only I saw the Notice at the Hotel front door and realized that there are another phone number to call regarding late check in. After standing in front of the door for around 20 minutes, the hotel person came to deliver room key and collect the deposit. Since I was there with my kids, therefore it was a very uncomfortable check in experience. Please improve on that. Thanks!

One of the best hotel I have ever stayed in Penang!”
At first i was worried about 2 things, parking & the lobby after read the previous reviews. But when i reached there, thank goodness the lobby are located at the hotel itself! Plus just next to my room! The parking also got no problem, we parked at the back of the hotel and the road are just renewed! Phew! The hotel was excellent! My family love staying at this hotel. They have wonderful facilities, the hotel is spacious, very clean and cosy room! They have everything includes the equipped with kitchenette! We really enjoyed our stay in this hotel and highly recommended for those who looking for hotel in Penang. Surely will come again!!

Excellent stay ”
I was really lucky cuz I booked the room during promotion. And even more lucky cuz they upgraded my room to a 2 bedroom suite. The late check in was really helpful cuz i reached near midnight and the staff patiently help with our arrival. The layout of the unit is so spacious complete with living room, dining area n there’s washing machine too. It’s really worth the stay. My mum n brother felt really comfortable. The designs n beddings are posh too. Location wise is great too ! A lot of nearby eateries n tourist attractions. Though they have minimal parking space. Definitely will consider booking this place again in the future !

Pros: superb location near to all tourist attractions. We got upgraded from 1 bedroom to 2 bedroom hotel. Facilities are well equip and very clean. Cons: The hotel has no lobby thus you have to call in advance for the staff to assist. The parking are very limited. luckily we get the nearest parking space.

Love! ”
First of all, thanks a lot to the front desk staff who let me check in earlier when I supposed to check in on 3pm. You make my day!! 💖 I love the ambience of this hotel. All the room comes with fridge, washing/drying machine, microwave and basic cooking appliances. Not really recommend if you travel with small kids, as every room comes with stairs, which quite high. The check in and check out process was smooth and fast! Overall, I love everything about this hotel.

Value for money”
Pleasantly surprised with the washing machine cum dryer in the unit. Going back home with only clean clothes. Near to all the top food spots. $$ saved in hotel rental used in a full day fun water sports activities at the beach.

Everything was perfect! Very clean and huge place. Only downside is the parking, Its first come first serve basis, and you have to park at the alley behind hotel, small car is fine, but for big car a bit difficult i guess

Great but hard to check-in. Thank you for your great service!”
Our ONLY concern - the check in facility. We arrived after 10pm, and no one monitored the reception, we must call them via a Malaysian phone number so they could send a staff to do the check-in. It'll be really bad if you're coming to Penang without a Malaysian SIM card ready, so make sure to PREPARE a SIM card, or other means to contact the reception. Else, things were perfect, the place was clean and fully furnished. Sparkling clean bathroom. Good location, right in the heart of Georgetown.

Spacious room ”
The room is better than expected. Very spacious and clean. Toiletries are provided as well. There is a kitchenette available with microwave and electric kettle. Washing machine also available but we did not use it. Living room is very spacious but TV channels are limited. The lobby is only opened from 10 am to 10 pm. We checked out earlier around 8.30 and managed to call for assistance and was very quick response. Overall very satisfied and will recommend to others. The only thing that is still need to improve is space for Grab or car to stop. It is quite difficult to stop in the middle of the road.

Clean, comfy, central”
Aside from the noise (which didn't really bothered us), we love the stay. Clean value for money. Modernly decorated, sort of brand new. Parking was not an issue for us, manage to park behind the alley. However, do be careful with young children, as the property is just off main street, literally just a small walkway from door of hotel room to the street, can be dangerous for kids.
