So, This is My Stories About This Place..”
Okay, here's my review. For anyone intending to stay here, I will tell you a few things. Just imagine, living here feels like a village but a village house in the middle of the city. And, this village house has two floors. It’s big and the ones living here are your closest and distant relatives. Inside there is a small cafe that operates during the day. There are several bathrooms located outside the room that will be used by everyone (shared). At night, you may wake up to hear others chatting outside the room or in the next room. Sometimes you will hear the footsteps of the wooden floor deck creaking. It really feels like a village house. But, it is comfortable and cozy. It is an old building with a minimalist concept. There are several seating for chatting outside the room. There is also a reading room for those who love to read. The Wi-Fi connection is a bit fast. The service worker is also friendly. Around there are many eateries that are within walking distance. So in conclusion, if you want to feel all that in the middle of the city, can try to stay here.

Best guesthouse in George Town”
We have loved our stay in The Frame Guesthouse. Everything is perfect. All is very clean, toleits, shower, bedrooms. The breakfast is excelent. Toasts, butter, jam, fruit coffee and tea. You can enjoy free coffee and tea during all the day and you have drinking water yo fill your bottle. The best of the hostel are the staff. They are wonderful people. They help you as much as they can and they are very kind. Our favourite is Din, he works at nights and is lovely.

nice guesthouse in georgetown”
Enjoyed our stay at Frame. AC was powerful and kept our room cool after being out in the sun all day. Great location, close to many restaurants, bars, and cafes in Georgetown. Easy to get around from here. Staff was very friendly. Nice bathrooms, always very clean. Beds are super comfortable. Only downside was that we were on the 3rd floor and there were only bathrooms on the bottom 2 floors.

Enjoyable Stay”
Fun, rustic decor in a repurposed manufacturing facility. Since one of the reviews mentioned a shortage of bathrooms and showers. I was sensitive to this. Not a problem! Never had to wait for a shower or bathroom in three days and they always seemed available throughout the day and night. Staff was really friendly and helpful. Close to food and shopping. Easy walk to Mydin if you need something from a department store. Recommend Pit Stop and Red Garden Food Court. Coffee in the morning is strong and plentiful along with toast and jam. Enjoyed my stay and would recommend.

Great location”
Location is great, good food in chulia street. However, I'd like to highlight my requirement which I requested lower bunk at 4-bunk room. I was accommodated with my requirement, however I was disappointed the light in the bed did not work. Since it was on Saturday, no one is available for immediate fix. I also checked on my locker and it was easily can be opened. I highlighted that immediately and they called the vendor immediately, it got fixed in next hour. I also requested additional pillow, the staff accommodated with my requirement.

Exceptional”
I shared a room with my 4 year old. The hotel is clean and safe. The only downside was the distance from our room to the shared bathroom downstairs. This means I had to take my 4 year old every time I needed the bathroom. Still a great place to stay though.

Great location”
We've come back twice to this hostel. Recommend the double dorm for a couple (bed is comfortable, good size locker, the room is completely dark at night also away from the road so it's quiet, we slept great). Front desk staff super nice and helpful. Highly recommended

Perfect location & vibe”
A few blocks from Love Lane in the heart of Georgetown, it was a great jumping off point. Right away, we loved the feeling of the place with friendly staff and fellow travelers. Industrial style. The staff was really helpful - we set up our own food walking tour with their help. Quick laundry service. Simple toast breakfast but sufficient since you should really be eating out in Penang. Would definitely recommend!

Dedicated staff and nice location ”
Value for money and good location. There might be a bit noisy at night due to the echo however I find it's still acceptable. Very helpful staff who helped to clear up the stuck bathroom and very friendly. There's a cafe downstairs opened till evening. So u can smell nice coffee every morning 🤤 Personally also like the wooden decorations.

I bit more expensive than other places in the area, but definitely worth it! The people working there are so lovely. Breakfast is simple, but with fresh watermelon all day, free water, tea and coffee. Always clean, and dry comfortable

One of the best option in Penang”
The place is strategically located along Chulia St with easy access to food, shops and other interesting places for tourists. Best option if you are coming with family or groups, but still works for me as a solo traveller. It’s safe and worth the price!

Awesome place ”
Very cool, clean hostel. Perfect location. Queen bed dorm is fantastic for a couple. Everything was always super clean. Sadly one of the cleaners chucked out a 20% full bottle of gin when cleaning up - weren’t able to retrieve it, which wasn’t great. Not a super social hostel (they don’t organise any activities), however we did meet a few people just by hanging out in the common area. The place itself is pretty much spotless and beautiful.
