This was on of our favourite stays in Penang. The staff are absolutely lovely, the breakfasts great (and changed regularly) and the Inn is full of charm and character. We really enjoyed the bustling location of Little India. There are many excellent places to eat locally and the on-site bistro is great for a drink, meal and people and streetscape watching.

Lovely renovated property in an excellent location - near the main tourist areas but in an area retaining a lot of local character. The self check-in and doors that use a PIN code instead of a card were really handy.

This guest house is a perfect place to stay when in Georgetown. The location is great, only a short walk from the busy area, bus stops and other landmarks in the town. There are lots of lovely cafes and restaurants in close proximity. Shane and his wife are brilliant hosts. They were so welcoming and shared some great recommendations of things to do and places to eat. This house has great facilities, a big common kitchen area where there was fresh bread in the morning for the guests was a peak. Our room was comfortable and very clean. Check in was super easy. I definitely recommend this property if you are visiting Penang!

If you're looking to experience staying in modern heritage house, this is the place to be. There is a shared kitchenette with microwave oven, filtered water, mini fridge. Busy street by day but quiet and peaceful at night. Walking distance to almost everything. We love our room, it's clean, spacious and good view from the window. Air con and Wifi were strong too. Not forgetting to mention, the staff were absolute helpful. The reservation team is literally one message away and they are always ready to help.

The location was amazing, the room was clean and cozy, the shared kitchen had all the necessary utensils and appliances to make a quick meal. The decor was so esthetically pleasing. The space had space for drying laundry, everything perfect for a short vacation stay. Totally worth it!
