A great hostel, it's very clean, you can often see the staff cleaning the place two or three times a day. The travelers here are very nice and everyone is very quiet. This is in the city center of Georgetown, and it is very convenient to go to the attractions and you can walk there. Next time I come to Penang, I will choose to stay here again.

The location is unbeatable—just a short walk to Mural Street and surrounded by incredible street food and attractions.
The hostel itself is clean and well-maintained. The beds were comfortable, and I appreciated the organized co-working space, which made it easy to stay productive during my trip. One of the highlights was the hike they organized to a nearby hill—such a fun and refreshing activity!
I was also fortunate to be there during Christmas Eve, and the hostel hosted an amazing celebration with great food and engaging activities.
This hostel is a perfect choice for solo travelers. The friendly vibe makes it easy to meet new people and form connections.

Generally good. Nice beds and washroom good. Location not too bad Seemed to have a lot of volunteers working there, I often wondered if I was the only paying guest

Best hostel I’ve stayed in. Huge dorm. 36 beds. ( smaller dorms available). But you would never realise this as they are nicely spaced out and guests are respectful to the rules. Bathroom great. Showers fine. Lots to participate in reception area and great chill area with bean bags. Hikes, film nights, quiz, pool table. They do all sorts and you only have to put your name down on the board. There is no pressure. Staff are great. Super friendly and place is clean. Team work well to maintain this. Real good place to sit and chat with people or join them to create new memories. Highly recommend this place. Fantastic location

Nice hotel that is new. I heard it is less than a year old. It is in a good location of George Town and the location is awesome. I would recommend it if you are a solo traveler and want to meet people.
