JakaThey didn’t even know where I can could find the nearest currency exchange (I found one literally 1 mins walk away).
The common area is comfortable to watch movies or Netflix on the projector.
The 7 Largest Hostel in Penang

Not sure where to start ?. Walking through to the dorm area you are greeted with a smell of smelly shoes.
The dorms are all as cold 7/11’s. The AC and Fan are controlled and set centrally and after two nights here, I got sick.
Windows are paper thin so you feel like you’re sleeping on the street every time a bus goes by and constant bass from the nightclub across the street can be heard over the ear plugs provided.
The breakfast area is next to caged animals so there’s always an unwelcoming aroma of faeces while eating.
Staff/Volunteers have no experience in hospitality at all. It is obvious there is a lack of management and most of the volunteers/workers are staying here to benefit from the perks and using it as a gathering for themselves. Even at times the group chat felt like their own.
There was a mouse in the dorm that was running along the curtain rail (behind my bed) I reported this to reception and kindly requested to move beds. She said she would check and come back to me, I had to follow up 10 minutes later and she said she didn’t get a chance to check with management. She said she would write in the group chat which never happened. I saw the mouse again the day after wondering in the corridor.
The house keeping team were very nice and friendly. I wouldn’t recommend spending any money in this place as you will be very disappointed and can find better locations to be social.

Clean and cozy hostel, with attention to details, it has a cinema room perfect for relaxing and a really cheap and eventful bar where you can spend the evening. Everything in the hostel is of excellent quality: beds are huge and with double pillow, there is one huge mixed bathroom but also a female bathroom with speakers and music all day long and breakfast is abundant and tasty. Perfect for enjoying GeorgeTown and making new friends!!

a week agoThe location is convenient, service is great and room is comfy. They have an open space in level 5. However, the hygiene in bathroom needs to be improved. Some toilet are tapped. So whenever you want to use toilet, better check and make sure toilet wasn’t tapped and toilet paper is available. By the way, I can smell urine near the toilet which had tapped. Maybe it’s on the floor mat.3 weeks agoCheap for a reason. We stayed in the 8 bed dormitory which had 4 toilets/showers available for use. After checking in we went to look at them, 2 of them were broken with the toilets taped up, 1 had a cockroach in the sink and the shower flooded and the last had plasterboard all over the floor. Our dormitory smelt like gone off milk and the air conditioner stopped working every 2/3h. I told the reception and they said I had to keep turning if off and back on again, this resulted in one night me getting up 5 times to reset the A/C. Pay a bit more and stay somewhere nicer.3 weeks agoThis is from a solo travel on a budget. I really liked this Hostel. The beds were comfy. They have a lift. Its is really clean and the staff is nice and helpful. The location was nice. There was no hot water from showers.a month agoNot too bad for it’s price & location. Sometimes people tend to over expect & pinpoint absolutely everything. I was overall satisfied with my stay here except for the part where my roommate switched off or increased the temp of the aircond numerous times.a month agoWe thank the reception guy who didn’t accept to give us a bed after we have put the wrong day in booking, but have paid. I do not see the trouble it brings for him, after the money was sent to the hostel, to change that small mistake. And I can understand he cannot take this decision on his own maybe but he didn’t try at any moment to help us find a solution apart from saying we should contact booking because he cannot do anything. We have never used the facility and he knows it since the day was set to one day earlier, so no proof of check-in. I really regret even trying to come here. They did keep our bags at the reception for the whole day though. We hesitated to pay again in Tido for the night (meaning we would have paid twice) but found a better accommodation in a better location for a lower price.
