The Terraces by Aayu - 2 mins walk to Chulia Street

Pros: Very safe and clean, located in a perfect position

Amazing!

Pros: Perfect location in George Town. We were met by a staff member who showed us to our room. Everything was clean and in good condition. Easy to get around there by walking and there is a free bus you can use. To get outside of George Town there is a public bus that can be used too. Easy to find it and get on the stop. The staff host events that a good to get involved with and makes it easy to make friends. There is a games night, pub crawl, sightseeing etc. there is no pressure to join in either!

10/10 – Outstanding hospitality and perfect location

Pros: Amazing stay from start to finish. The guesthouse is in a great central location in Georgetown, with everything within walking distance; food, sights, cafés and transport. The room was clean, comfortable and exactly as described. What really stood out was the incredible hospitality. The staff went above and beyond to help me with a personal logistics issue, including safely storing my package for several months and assisting far more than I ever expected. Communication was always friendly, clear and reassuring. This is the kind of place that makes you feel genuinely welcome and taken care of. I would stay here again without hesitation and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Penang.

Pros: good value and activities rooms a little noisy as thin walls

Again and again

Pros: Been staying here off and on for a couple of years, perfect location coupled with perfect friendly staff. Yes bathrooms are shared but are always clean and tidy.

Cons: It’s not a dislike but be aware the walls are quite thin but this place tends to attract a respectful clientele. I’ve never had a problem in all the times I’ve stayed.

Pros: Absolutely loved this hostel ! Nice and chilled but still had a lovely atmosphere where you can meet and socialise with people. They had great link up and the reps gabbi and Mario were so lovely and did such a good evening trip out ! Would 100% recommend

Pros: Great staff and a prime location. The rooms were clean and comfy. Would recommend for travelling on a budget but wanting a more quiet and private place to stay.

Recommend!

Pros: We liked the location in particular as it was 2 min walk from the busy street with food and bars

Hidden Gem

Pros: A cozy hidden gem in a place you wouldn't expect. The stay itself was simple & comfortable perfect for a short rest. What really stood out was the the host, Eddie- easily the best host I've ever had. He was kind & accomodating, allowing us to check in early after a long night journey.. Being able to rest right away made all the difference. He also made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. Highly recommendable.

Great accommodation but noisy!

Pros: Clean, comfortable rooms. Very friendly staff and atmosphere around the place. We booked last minute on the day and we were checked in and everything within a half hour. Super location too!

Cons: Unfortunately as other guests have mentioned the rooms aren’t sound proof. Our room looked out onto the street and was missing a windows even though it was covered by the wooden blind so it was very very noisy. Earplugs that were provided did the job though!
