it\'s a hotel, it doesn\'t have the cosyness from a backpackers hostel, but it\'s clean and still pretty good value. Big rooms, we even had a balconny. The rooms are cleaned everyday (everyday new sheets and towels) and a pretty good breakfast (cornflakes, fruit, toast, coffee, ...) is included. Recommended.

Our double room was very spacious, even a small balcony which was great for drying washing. Staff very friendly & helpful. Walking distance to old Georgetown sights.

We stayed here as a family of five to explore Penang. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the rooms excellent and clean, if a little tired, an linen was changed daily. Reasonably close to Comtar, Chinatown and Little India. We intend to use it again as our Penang base.

Friendly & helpful staff. Free map & best of all, clear & precise bus info to all major attractions. Not too far from shopping area. I like it for its quietness and serenity. I had a wonderful stay there. Cheers!

My first impression about this hotel is looking as old hotel. But the warm water and good wireless for the internet connection making a plus for this hotel :) Feeling little bit surprised for the breakfast ;)

Staff were very helpful providing tourist info on arrival and when asked later. Room was a nice surprise being so spacious, with an extra "lounge" area. Very clean too. Will recommend Mingood to others!! Thanks again, Donna & Chris

I have 14 fresh mosquito bites and someone tried to come in my room in the middle of the night. This was not a pleasant stay.   Read Owner Comments

Generally it is clean. But the location is not good. Not many people stay in this hotel. It is so quiet at night; grils might feel a little scared.

Staff were very helpful in sorting out activities. Is a very plain hotel, but very clean, spacious, quite and safe.
