Best location for going to multiple tourist locations. Room looks exactly as in the picture. They even provided an extra mattress for my brother and all the extra amenities! Lovely people, oh they also gave us fresh bread, 1st day was coffee bread and the other day was orange bread. Amazing! Highly recommend this to people who are indecisive and have hard time deciding, like me. I went through multiple hotels and home stays and finally decided on this one and I must say, I’m blessed to have stayed here. Thanks to the owners for being so kind and nice. 💕

The location is very strategic. You can always come back to take a short rest during your trip (which requires a lot of walking under the heat of the sun haha). The queen room is on the first floor so I didn’t have any trouble bringing my big luggage in. Also, the cleanliness (for room, kitchen, living room, and bathroom) is top-notch! Shane is very communicative, responds quickly, and helped me a lot during my stay. Please keep it as amazing as it is. I’ll definitely recommend this property to anyone who would like to stay in Penang, and I would go back again if I could.

    The friendly cat residents made our stay very special! So did the cosy and homely atmosphere of the guesthouse. The staff we met were all friendly and welcoming. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The shared showers and toilets were spotless. The shared kitchen included a hot & cold water dispenser which was most useful. The location is excellent - walking distance to the key sights as well as fantastic restaurants. Nothing not to like!

    My friend and I had a lovely stay at Aayu Melayu for 3 nights. Great location to explore Georgetown, close to the heritage centre and countless restaurants and cafes. The building itself is a lovely guesthouse and our room was spotless and bathrooms very clean. Shane and his staff were so helpful both in advance via WhatsApp and once we arrived and they offered lots of great recommendations. Would highly recommend our stay here. Thank you!

    It was easy to deal with the host. The host facilitated check-in and check-out. Even allowed us to leave our luggage since we arrived early. Great location. Gurney Plaza was just across from the apartment. The apartment was very clean and just nice for the five of us. It's definitely a place to come back to. Although located in a busy area, steps were taken to ensure safety of guests with their security protocol.
