Hotel is nice and relaxed. Reception staff were excellent, especially the guy who checked us in (don't know their name). Our room however was tiny and not at all like what we seen online when booking. The room was also at the very front of the building where noise from nearby bars kept us up most of the night. Bathrooms should be cleaned better. Atmosphere is very chill and it looks well, so it was disappointing for it to be let down by the most basic parts of any accommodation.

Perfect. The music from the nearby bars are a bit loud, but not unbearable. Just use ear plugs! The facilities were so clean, the rooms impeccable. The staff treat you like family. They make the experience incredible. The location is on the Main Street and close to everything you’d want to see downtown. Every time I come back to Penang I will stay here.
