    Mind-blowing interior design of siok, super atmosphere, jaw-dropping staff service. Perfect location with bus stop just 100 meters away, chowrasta market within 200 meters, and famous nasi kandar line clear nearby. Many food places. The staff, especially Ms. Bernie, Ms. Che Che, and Mr. Ong, were very helpful. Can't wait to visit again!

    the staff were helpful and went out of their way to make my stay enjoyable. They provided great recommendations for things to do and see in the area. the beds were comfortable and the hostel was clean. the location was also convenient, with easy access to local attractions and public transportation.

    One of the main issues was the lack of maintenance.

    The room was super clean and had air conditioning, and the security was great. The location was convenient with nearby bus stops. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, even lending me a charger. The shared lounge had a basic but satisfactory breakfast. The atmosphere was cozy and had a charming colonial feel. There were nearby coffee shops and restaurants within walking distance. a great place to stay with easy access to transportation and friendly staff.

    The value for money at Georgetown Residences was exceptional, with large and spacious rooms, clean facilities, and helpful staff who gave great restaurant recommendations. The location was perfect, close to popular nightlife spots and delicious street food.

    The breakfast experience could be improved by starting earlier to accommodate early risers.

    The location of the hotel is excellent, with easy access to bus stops, food courts, and a minimart. the hostel offers a nice breakfast, including toast, watermelon, and scrambled eggs. the dorms and bathrooms are well-maintained and spotless, providing a clean and comfortable stay. the hostel has big personal cabinets in all dorm rooms, offering ample storage space.

    The noise from a nearby club at night can be quite disruptive, so you may want to bring your own earplugs for a peaceful sleep.

    had a wonderful valentine's day stay in George Town, and this time we chose a hostel that exceeded our expectations. The staff were fantastic, the beds were massive with lots of privacy, and the location was perfect with easy access to buses and the main street.

    Wifi was terrible.
