My friends and I spent only one night. Clean, nice, comfortable, affordable and in fact, we had nothing to complain about. There were lots of cookies on the table and they were really good!

Great comfy and charming place. Good: Great location. Good Atmosphere. Clean. Have a wonderful roof top garden, have a very nice shower area on the roof (private, enclosed space, but with natural sunlight, fresh air, warm water). Bad: Really nothing striking. Would stay again.

Great location, wonderful staff, delicious eats! The owners give you a detailed breakdown of great restaurants and sights across the city when you arrive, and can answer any other questions that arise during your stay. While they say breakfast is not included, fruit and delicious breads are provided every morning. As a solo woman traveler, I felt very safe and comfortable.

The welcome was great and Mani gave us a lot of useful information. The guest house is very clean and convenient, giving us a feeling of staying home. All the main tourist spots are in walking distance. Would definitely come back for our next trip in Melaka.

The Roof Top Guest House was really peaceful and quiet, a nice get-away from the city when the large amounts of tourists or the heat got overwhelming. The staff is very friendly and helpful at giving you tips on what to do, and it is walking distance from everything in Melaka.

Mani, the owner of the hostel, was very nice and heplful, giving us great recommendations for eating and hanging out. The hostel wa situated very close to Jonker Street, and it was quite safe to walk back at the hostel alone as 2 women.

I have never received such a warm welcome upon arriving at a hostel! As well as receiving a welcome drink, Mani gave me a map and lots of information on where to go, what to see and eat, and how to get around. The hostel is very well located for getting around the city on foot.

Definitely recommended. The owners believe in what they do and they extend a friendly welcome. It's a quiet place and best suited to solo travellers (like me) or couples, rather than groups. Location is excellent, just off 'Red Square'.

Lovely place and the family that run it are so so nice. Clean, fresh baked goods in the morning and decent showers. Was very cozy and quiet, if that's the sort of thing you want after KL.

This has got to be one of, or the best hostel out there. I absolutely loved the roftop garden and shower. Free food and tea/coffee, the largest dorm room with only 4 single beds in I've ever stayed in. I cant recommend it enough.
