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 :)" ![Australia](https://a.travel-assets.com/egds/marks/flags/au.svg) Anonymous traveller [](https://www.expedia.ca/George-Town-Hotels-Tido-Hostel-Penang.h13176640.Hotel-Information) ![Outdoor pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/10000000/9480000/9470200/9470144/d0f002d0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=357&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ![Lobby lounge](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/10000000/9480000/9470200/9470144/a3ec4032.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=357&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ![Lobby sitting area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/10000000/9480000/9470200/9470144/5a70d4fd.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=357&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ![Bar (on property)](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/10000000/9480000/9470200/9470144/114ae747.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=357&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Wassup Youth Hostel [](https://www.expedia.ca/George-Town-Hotels-Wassup-Youth-Hostel.h9470144.Hotel-Information) Downtown George Town 8.0/10 Very good (145) "Conveniently located and nice if you need a place to rest." ![United States](https://a.travel-assets.com/egds/marks/flags/us.svg) Xiao Fang [](https://www.expedia.ca/George-Town-Hotels-Wassup-Youth-Hostel.h9470144.Hotel-Information) ![Basic Shared Dormitory | Living area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/43000000/42140000/42133900/42133869/903733ab.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=357&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ![Living area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/43000000/42140000/42133900/42133869/f794fd4d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=357&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ![Living area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/43000000/42140000/42133900/42133869/3fc0681b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=357&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ![Shower, towels, soap, shampoo](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/43000000/42140000/42133900/42133869/afac72e3.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=357&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Mypintu [](https://www.expedia.ca/George-Town-Hotels-Mypintu.h42133869.Hotel-Information) Downtown George Town 5.0/10 (2) "I arrived to this property after midnight, but the owner welcomed me with a smile.
