I can't explain how much. i loved this hostel. Nicole was an amazing host who would always make the effort to ask how you are and would give recommendations for things to do. But above all the hostel itself was clean from head to toe.

We love the very Chinese-style vintage environment.

The hotel is an a renovated historic building and it is gorgeous, it’s also in a great location for seeing George Town. The manager Nicole is also very friendly and helpful, she made us feel very welcomed. The shared bathroom is clean and spacious. The room is a little small, but air con works great and was sufficient for our needs (we did book the small room, you can book a larger one).

Helpful host, quieter location and clean facilities.

right in the centre of George Town, excellent position

Great traditional features in one part of the house although our room was very luxurious. Great location for sightseeing and lots of restaurants and coffee shops nearby.

Loved how 'vintage' the whole place looks. Clean place too!

It has limited privacy. It is good for those outgoing guests. Near to the city center but secluded. Value for money.

Very kind and helpful staff. Super clean and well managed rooms. We were very fortunate and thankful to have our rooms upgraded to all with private bathroom. Tqsm.

Comfortable room Small number of rooms makes the hotel quite homey Street is very quiet at night, easy to sleep! Walking distance from a lot of food, attractions, sights, etc.
