Manager is such a gem, helping you with many things. The dorm is the cleanest I've ever stayed in. There's a dressing room full of mirrors and a laundry room!! Basically a dream. Met many really nice women during my stay (which I extended for 2 nights because it was so good)

Shane and Xin Pei were the perfect hosts! The place is well equipped, wonderfully located, and very very clean! They were very accommodating and even allowed us to shower + leave our things while we explored before we checked in. They have great advice and recommendations and I cannot have asked for a better stay in Georgetown! The night markets are literally just outside and you’re a stone’s throw away from all the great cafes and bars. They even thoughtfully included earplugs just in case it got noisy (it didn’t). I highly recommend staying here the next time you’re in town :) I know i will be back!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
