Great interior design, great location. Delicious coffee available - that’s always plus.

Good location, rooms, showers. Also cafe downstairs and some chill room.

This is spacious! Large rooms, communal areas, halls… the toilets are separate from the showers and you don’t have to squeeze to get in. They keep it clean. The location is fantastic, restaurants at your doorstep and old town attractions all within walking distance. The wifi is excellent, both in the dorm room and in the common areas. Major bonus points for that. I’ve stayed in 5 different hotels/hostels in Melaka, KL and Ipoh and they all had either flawed or terrible wifi. I enjoyed my stay there and would go back.

Love the concept! Just need to improvise the room a bit. Outside is lovely!

Just as expected. Maybe a plus that they gave us keys for lockers, instead of us using our own locks. Love! Easy and smooth check-in, although I didn't expect a pay at hotel, but everything was smooth as I could use my debit card. Breakfast is minimal/standard for dorm/guesthouse, but they also serve fruits. Great points!

Property in nice location; restaurants, bars, food market nearby. Very minimalistic but has what you need. Motorbike rental places right next door too. Little cafe in reception was nice.

Excellent location in the heart of Georgetown, walking distance to a night market. A really sociable guesthouse with multiple areas to sit and chat with other guests. Will definitely come back in the future.
