Excellent and friendly staff! Bernadette & Tim were both really helpful!
There is also a hair dryer in the ladies room, which is rare in hostels.
24/7 free tea and coffee.
The modern furnishings of the hostel mixed with the bricks of the Straits shophouse architecture, some in-house art, and personal testimonials of guests make it more interesting and welcoming.
Very great location for both walking and commuting. all reviews »
Absolutely loved all about this hostel...my only negative is that i hadnt stayed here for longer.
If in Penang stay here, great location, clean facilities, fun design, comfy lounge area, lovely helpful staff and great breakfast, a truly enjoyable stay.

Good place for meeting people. Friendly staff. Nice lounge area. Central location.
Great new hostel with very friendly staff and in a great location.
Nice hostel..Clean and organize.
Breakfast. The bed I had was also too soft for my back. Only 1 computer/pc in the common area , but there was free wifi everywhere in the hotel with a good connection to compensate.
hostel is close to a mosque so you hear prayer chants being broadcasted via a PA system throughout the day with only the early morning one causing a bit of an inconvenience.
There near Mosque that might wake you up around 5 am.
Not as much privacy in the dorms as I was hoping for. would definitely at least take the bottom bunk next time!.
The mosquitos on the bathroom area.
