Hostel Sim cityStay
No 60, Level 1, Weld Quay, Pulau Pinang,, 10300 George Town, Malaysia – Great location - show map
The law of the land is duly upheld. Great common area, kitchen. Free coffee and tea. The facilities are scrupulously maintained and cleaned. The rooftop is open 24/7.
United States of AmericaI checked in very late at night without reservation due to some uncontrolable reasons, and the reception lady was very nice, even though she doesn’t speak English. It’s very close to Georgetown, and I think it has all the facility I need.
ChinaThe host is super. He allowed me early check in at 8:30am. Was helpful, nothing to complain
BangladeshClean Comfy Laundry service available Nice air con Close to jettys and bus terminal Quiet because there are no windows which is a good thing in this hot climate Cheap
PolandVery clean hostel! Bed and everything was comfortable. Also the Owner is very kind and will help you with any questions you have about the area. Highly recommend!
United States of AmericaDespite first appearances of the hostel being located above a tyre garage; staff were friendly, the room was very clean and beds were comfy. We had everything we needed for a couple of fun nights in George Town. Good value for money.
United KingdomGreat beds, amazing rooftop. Cheap, easy, and the owner is such a great guy. Incredibly clean because shoes aren’t allowed except for on the staircases.
United States of AmericaI’ve extended my stay in Georgetown because 1) this hostel is perfect and 2) the area is so vibrant and absolutely stuffed with great places to eat. I’ve been in SE Asia 6 months and this is one of my favorite hostels. Just a little stairway in a nondescript building near the waterfront lead up to this little place. It’s certainly the cleanest hostel I’ve stayed at in 6 months and amazingly, since it’s near a busy road, it’s one of the quietest. Perfect A/C as well. No one seems to know it’s here. And the hidden gem is the rooftop from which you can see all of Georgetown, the harbor and the mainland as you listen to the muezzin’s call to prayer from the nearby minaret of the old Kapitan Keling mosque. Really a fantastic place with fantastic owners.
United States of AmericaIt has a very good location near to many tourist places. A clean room with AC and fan. They provide water, tea and coffee for free! A good touch from them. rooftop view is awesome!
ChinaStaff was very good, helped us a lot during our trip there.
