A very perfect experience, a highly recommended place to stay when traveling to Penang. The price is favorable and it is only a short walk away from Calvary attractions. Food is everywhere in the streets and alleys nearby.

I like this hotel very much. Its location is very good. At night, there is a night market not far away. There is a lot of delicious food. There are 7-11 and FamilyMart in the past where you can buy things. There is also a bar street not far from 7-11. at. Moreover, the Art Street and the Grand Mosque are also nearby, but this is not a main street and will not be noisy. You can rent motorcycles and travel services at the store next door. The free CAT bus will also shuttle nearby. The most important thing is that I really like the design of the store, it is very beautiful.

My room was No. 18, one of four beds. It had no windows. The water dripping from the air conditioner gave the room a strong musty smell. There was no place to dry the washed clothes. They were hung on the rusty iron stair railings. There are several temples around and there are no restaurants to eat in. It’s hard to endure two nights.

The property is located close to the Carnarvon street food market and is halfway between Komtar, street art and Fisherman's Village. You can walk around. If going to Penang Hill and kek lok si temple, you can walk to take the bus in front of Carnarvon market, line 201. The accommodation is clean, quiet, cool air conditioner, staff are always there. and very helpful The bathroom is clean, sufficient, good water pressure, should prepare your own toiletries.
