23 Love Lane Hotel

I travel to Penang from time to time for a getaway leisure - for its food, historical buildings, and trying all kinds of lodgings. The look and facilities are by far my favourite in Georgetown — very tasteful arts, furnitures, coloured cushions, little book nook, lovely greens and garden, such crafty variety of how they use the space — you will always find your coziest spot. Not doing anything else, I just pampered myself finding my most comfy armchair and read. Before visiting, I noticed previous reviews about the hygiene — I’m not particularly allergic; I think it’s fine with this price range. However compared to my next lodging, there was room to slightly improve indeed. The bathroom, floors, and furnitures are fine; it’s more about the dusty window panes and walls, and the air-con seems just too outdated and be placed facing your head when sleeping (strongly suggest they add a wind deflector). I treasure the mere existence of how the owner wants to run this gem. Staff all so welcoming and thoughtful too, especially the 阿伯 uncle and a young guy at breakfast shift.

The location is convinced, 5-10 mins walking distance to street foods areas and lovely hotel. Is noisy from the restaurants nearby.

Liked the location. Walking distance to nearby places of inrerests and restaurants and street foof. Friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was included, the standard american breakfast or local roti canai. But upon checking into the room. Found a dead cockroach and a used bath towel in the room. Informed reception, who immediately went to check and removed them. Could do with some upgrading of the property as they appeared worned and tired.

Behind the hotel room is a road, night time might be disturbed by vehicle passing by n there are quite a lot of mosquito.
