I had a wonderful stay here. The apartment offers plenty of space, a tasteful and modern design, and very comfortable beds with pillows that are pleasantly thin. The location is perfect—right in the heart of the old town, with everything just steps away. The host was extremely helpful, and communication was smooth and responsive at all times. I would gladly stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

The location is pretty good since everything is walking distance, its a pretty chill and quiet atmosphere, perfect if you want to relax and just enjoy the city in a beautiful place.

We went there for Chinese New Year and got some small presents (🥠)! There was also some small breakfast available and the host helped us with all our questions! The location is the beste and it was the best accommodation in Malaysia! Self check in was super easy and communication was great with the host.

It’s a traditional shophouse with over 100 years history. The room was very spacious and newly renovated so it’s full equipped. We arrived early morning but was allowed an early checkin. The staff was very helpful, thoughtful and hospitable. We really enjoyed our stay there. Would definitely stay there if we visit Penang again!
