One of the best budget hostels i have been to recently. Amazing and helpful staff, thank you for the book!! I got a warm welcome, the girl from the reception with a perfect english would present all the facilities to me. It's the type of hostel where you get a family like type of feeling where you receive trust and consideration. Free cold or hot water on every floor. Well maintained and clean. Also big bonus they got a rooftop with a nice view. Definitely would recommend!

Clean hostel with affordable price for a sleep”
Everything is OK. Clean bed with air conditioner and with water heater. Just the toilet is a bit small for me. Best location to all the places of interests. Don't get fool by the front of the hostel. When you get in, that is the best and cheapest place you would like to stay. Just the ceiling of the room is too low, not so convenient for the upper deck person. Nothing to complaint.

No lift.”
If your stuffs are heavy, I can't recommend here. I was assigned to stay female dorm, and I have to go up to 4th floor via stairs. If you want to leave your belongings after check out, you have to pick them up before 6PM. I booked here to go to Sungai Petani, so I have to change my plan. If you're OK on these conditions, then I can recommend here. Staffs are attentive and supportive to guests.

Location: convenient ”
The place is walking distance to the UNESCO sites and near to food courts and lots of food stalls. Highly recommend to youngsters and travelers who can still tolerate 2 flight of stairs minimum as there is no lift.
