Highlights have definitely been the easy-going reception staff as well the lovely common area on the top floor. I would recommend anyone visiting Penang to stay here. It's centrally located and has a 24 hour reception. The staff are accommodating and the area itself is convenient. The only wish for improvement is for the toilets and bathrooms to be cleaned daily. But in general the hostel is well kept :) ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Mar 10, 2020 Liked: Staff & service #### Not bad Overall ok for the price . Double room (private) with shared bathroom .convenient location just that the windows were not sealed properly so it was very noisy . Comfy bed .

After check-in about 1 hour later I did not like the hotel so I want to check out then I ask for my city tax to be refunded for the second cost as I will not stay for tomorrow. She did not want to give back to me the money. And I get two bottles of water per day for my room and I already paid for my two nights stay and they told no not refundable so I said fine. Then I ask to give me my two bottles of water in advance for my second-night stay water. She refused to give me water which I already paid for it. This hotel is horrible and the bed is dirty and some hair around the pillow and room is dusty, and some part is falling apart in the room and curtain is not working properly. ##### Andrew Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Anon, KL Jan 16, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The lounge was fantastic.

Room and bed is Clean. Sells beer at reception at decent price. Common area upstairs has power plugs so you could work. Bathroom heaters could use some maintenance. Underbed storage is a nice idea. ##### Sin Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 3, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort 3 nights stay, but next chance,more. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Alice Jan 5, 2019 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort Disliked: Property conditions & facilities I stay 3nights, My room is on 1/F no WiFi as me and my roommate complains few times but no reaction. Bedroom is so many dust but acceptable. However, the toilet is so horrible no staff cleaning and smelly no one refill toilet paper. Some facilities was broken.

Terrible wifi between 0.5 Mbps to 2 Mbps constantly disconnecting. Also, Bed bugs were found in my bed the first night I got there. They moved me to a different room after I told the staff and they washed my clothes. The bathroom on the third floor has very bad shower pressure and the shower handle is broken. The water heater was also not working. ##### Melvin Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Siti Natashah Oct 28, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### More than just for Tido. Location is really good. It’s at the heart of good food and walking distance to Komtar where the bus terminal is. Getting around is super easy. The Indian Male staff (I forgot to ask for his name) is really friendly and awesome. Recommended me a good local food stall too and gave a landmark to find my way at ease. Clean and comfortable for a good night sleep after a long day. There’s a lounge at level 5 where you can lepak and chill. There are books, TV, movies available too. ##### Siti Natashah Stayed 1 night in Oct 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Christine Jul 15, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Stylish and Comfy, But Poor Security Very comfortable, spacious beds and shared dorm rooms with modern touches. One of the sleekest hostel rooms I've stayed in, by far! I appreciated that the floor had four bathrooms/showers as well (with the best water pressure I've experienced in any hotel/hostel!). The big downside was security. The front door doesn't lock, and there's a separate open door to the outside near the bottom of the stairs that lead directly to the rooms. Three girls in my room had things stolen one night/morning, and unfortunately it wasn't a huge surprise. There's a currently a very clear risk that someone could just walk in from outside and steal things. Always lock the shared room door, and never leave your belongings/valuables out--always take them with you or lock them up in the drawer provided! ##### Christine Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ooi Apr 3, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness #### Lift faulty Although I have book 1 nite stay at the hotel, but I did not manage to stay there. My wife do not like the Bathroom is outside of the hotel room as I did not informed her that there is no bathroom inside the hotel room. So I have to check out immediately as my wife do not like the room. Another issue for the hotel is that there is only 1 left and it is out of order. Me and my wife have to carry our luggage walking up the stairs to the 5th Floor. No one is helping us with all our luggage. ##### Ooi ### 6/10 Okay #### MARSITHAH Mar 13, 2018 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness Suitable hostel especially for backpackers. The room was very clean but they should improve their room smells because some foreigners bringing their shoe inside the room. They also should clean their toilet regularly and open more toilet to avoid people waiting. After all, I'm very enjoy my holiday while staying at your hostel. ##### MARSITHAH Stayed 1 night in Mar 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Mar 5, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### ワイファイがないのが本当に残念。それ以外は許容範囲。 旅行者としては部屋でWi-Fiが使えないのが、辛い。一応たまに繋がるが、繋がってもかなり遅い。五階に冷蔵庫や食器共用のラウンジがある。交差点のはす向かいにコンビニ。ホテルで自転車が借りれる。バタワースからつく港からは徒歩20〜30分 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jihyun Feb 12, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 추천합니다. 현관문이랑 엘리베이터를 탈려면 카드키가 있어야해서 안전한거 같았고 5층라운지에는 전자렌지,정수기,그릇,냉장고가 있어서 즉석식품사서 먹었어요. 숙소도 깨끗하고 화장실도 넓고 뜨거운물도 잘나왔어요!! 수압도 쎄서 좋았어요. 그리고 한국컵라면은 근처 마트에 안팔아요ㅜㅜ 2일동안 찾으러 다녔는데 숙소앞에 팔았어요ㅋㅋ 숙소현관문에서 오른쪽 대각선에 24시편의점있는데 거기에 신라면큰사발팔아요!!! ##### Jihyun Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Oct 31, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Amazing hostel.

La deuxième nuit, toutes les toilettes de l'étage (4) étaient bouchées et super sales, elles n'ont été nettoyées que plus de 24h plus tard. Grosse blague, surtout pour le prix que cela nous a coûté (une chambre double, 25usd / nuit avec salle de bains communes). ##### Patricia Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### TS, TOKYO Oct 24, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### 綺麗なホテル とても綺麗で清潔感のある部屋だった。 ラウンジもオシャレでこの値段この設備は満足。 ただ、Wi-Fiがどの階でもかなり繋がりにくかった。そこだけが難点。 ##### TS Stayed 1 night in Oct 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### SATSU, Japan Oct 19, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### とにかく従業員の人達が優しい 海外旅行すら不慣れな私が初めてホステルを利用しましたが、設備もベッドもとてもきれいでした。勉強中な拙い英語も丁寧に聞いて下さり、理解に時間がかかっても嫌な顔せず気さくに接してくれました。近くにコンビニもあるので、消耗品はそこで調達できるのが有難いです。次訪れる際はぜひまた利用させて頂きたいと思います。 ##### SATSU Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gary Oct 9, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great hostel, in a good location. This is a great little hostel, located within walking distance of the hustle and bustle of Georgetown. The room (double) was clean and was quiet despite being set back from a main road. I have to say the included breakfast wasn't that amazing (cup of tea and a piece of toast) but the kitchen area/relaxation area is well set out with a nice view of the streets below. For breakfast just head 30 seconds down the road for local Roti Canai, so good and rammed with locals, only 7RM. The hotel was clean with friendly staff. Good Wifi too. I would happily stay here again on my next visit to Penang. ##### Gary Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### TSK, hong kong Oct 9, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 整潔 新穎 這家hostel離紅園很近，也很近免費巴士CAT的8號站，很方便就可到達光大和碼頭。而房間的冷氣要問樓面借remote來開的。整體來說很整潔，locker鎖很多是壞的。浴室可以接受 ##### TSK Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2017 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Adults Only Resorts & Hotels in St. Lucia](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-St-Lucia-Adults-Only-Resorts.0-0-d168-tAdultsOnlyResorts.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Grand Venetian Condominium](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Vallarta-Hotels-Grand-Venetian-Condominium.h15570143.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Paynes Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Paynes-Bay-Hotels.d6142875.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels.d6023515.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Pet-friendly Hotels in Barrie](https://www.expedia.ca/Barrie-Hotels-Pet-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d6692-tPetfriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Pullman Dubai Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Dubai-Hotels-Pullman-Dubai-Downtown.h12294745.Hotel-Information) > > [Adults Only Resorts & Hotels in Bonaire](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Bonaire-Adults-Only-Resorts.0-0-d182193-tAdultsOnlyResorts.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Royalton Splash Riviera Cancun, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Playa-Del-Carmen-Hotels-Royalton-Splash-Riviera-Cancun.h78626183.Hotel-Information) > > [Motels Hamilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Motels.d3963-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Comfort Inn Burlington](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Burlington.h23730.Hotel-Information) > > [Jasper Inn & Suites by INNhotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Jasper-Hotels-Jasper-Inn-Suites-By-Sunrise.h32667087.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Isla Mujeres](https://www.expedia.ca/Isla-Mujeres-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d7925-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels with Free Breakfast in Cranbrook](https://www.expedia.ca/Cranbrook-Hotels-Hotels-With-Free-Breakfast.0-0-d6058315-tHotelswithFreeBreakfast.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels with Free Breakfast in Ottawa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Hotels-With-Free-Breakfast.0-0-d178296-tHotelswithFreeBreakfast.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Portland](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel-Portland.h9555.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ol' Frontier](https://www.expedia.ca/Revelstoke-Hotels-The-Ol-Frontier.h8644964.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Kingston (KIN) to Nassau (NAS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/kin/nas/kingston-to-nassau) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Port Moresby (POM)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/pom/toronto-to-port-moresby) > > [Flights from Sanford (SFB) to Hamilton (YHM)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/sfb/yhm/orlando-to-hamilton) > > [Flights from Suðurnesjabær (KEF) to Oslo (OSL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/kef/osl/reykjavik-to-oslo) > > [flights from tri cities regional airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/tri/flights-from-tri-cities-regional-airport) > > [Air Canada](https://www.expedia.ca/Air-Canada-Flights.cAC.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Kitakyushu (KKJ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/kkj/toronto-to-kitakyushu) > > [Flights from Lapu-Lapu (CEB) to Chek Lap Kok (HKG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ceb/hkg/cebu-to-hong-kong) > > [Flights from Minneapolis - St. Paul (MSP) to London (LHR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/msp/lhr/minneapolis-to-london) ### Activities > [Things to do in Edmonton](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Edmonton.d180002.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Xcaret Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Xcaret.d6050868.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Sandy Falls Golf Course](https://www.expedia.ca/Sandy-Falls-Golf-Course-Timmins.d553248621558560568.Vacation-Attraction)
