I picked this hotel for its location and it did not disappoint. The heat made being close distance to center of Penang important and it was a perfect location. Near the center , lots of restaurants and cafes and the clan jetties. I also liked that it was an old colonial building restored. Initially my room was on the ground floor and it was very small, had a leaking hose in bathroom and near the kitchen I had seem some bugs, although the kitchen did look clean when I looked in. I asked to be moved to a different room. They moved me upstairs to 2nd floor and it was much roomier and with more sunlight and I was happy with that. The air conditioner and Wifi worked well too and it was nice having a small fridge.

Love every bit of this hotel from the design to everything. I chose the duplex type and not regret at all. The bed and pillows are comfortable, had a good sleep. The cleanliness are at the top, kudos to the housekeeping team. A guy staff (night shift i guess) was quite friendly and he helped me in terms of the luggage transfer and also the parking lot. He also assist in whatever we requested to. Thanks to him. Will come back to stay in here again next time.

It was great to stay in a renovated/remodelled long house in Penang. Enjoyed the cultural history of this building. Our studio room with the loft bedroom was clean, comfortable & in good location for exploring George Town. It was handy having two street entrances, easy walking distance to restaurants, cafes & shops.The stairs were a bit of a challenge, but also did us a favour with helping to build up our legs for all the walking we did do.

Amazing location! Walking distance to so many good places to eat. Amazing amazing location. Would definitely stay here again. Room was big as it was a loft. It was very clean. Shower was so so good especially after touring Georgetown on foot. The water pressure is strong. Much better than other hotels I've stayed in (im looking at you double tree by Hilton).

I love the ambience of the hotel, I interest with the restaurant also. I enjoy the room with its decoration that gave us jetty situation. The room was also have good facilities included iron and hair dryer, except the TV because channels is limited. The location is good because near to the jetty, kopitiam and armenian street.
