We are in luck because the property is new! We chose to stay here because we wanted to experience how is it feels like staying in a local heritage houses in Penang. We love how the owner transformed the prewar shophouses into modern living heritage guesthouse while preserve the authenticity vibes of the property. Excellent service by the staff and the self check in was so smooth. We enjoyed our stay very much, Thank you very much

The villa is amazing! Location wise it is close to the centre and all famous food spots are walkable. The food stalls outside the villa is also awesome. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. We spent a fun time playing congkak together. The staff also allowed late check out due to our flight delay. We had a private bathroom to ourselves, which is a treat. Please note some other rooms may have your bathroom outside of your room. In general, we are very satisfied and happy with our room. Will definitely come back next time!!

It is rare to receive such a warm, hospitable welcome. The hosts received us with activities suggestions, maps of local sights and eateries and were open to accommodating our extra needs. The location was really convenient on a quiet street just a few minutes walk from the main area. Cozy hip coffeeshops are right on the corner as well as places preferred by Georgetown locals. Key destinations such as Armenian street or famous jetis are also very conveniently close. The shared spaces and rooms are beautifully designed with a minimalistic approach. The room and facilities were particularly clean and we would surely stay here again!

I had the pleasure of staying at My Guesthouse 109 during my recent trip to Malaysia, and I can honestly say it was probably the best stay I've had in the country. The guesthouse is a paradise for animal lovers, with plenty of cute and cuddly cats, a turtle, and a bunny that made my stay even more special. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home. The whole place was spotlessly clean, and the shared bathroom was sparkling clean and well-maintained. The stylish decor added to the ambiance of the guesthouse, and it was clear that every detail was well thought out. The location is also very convenient, with many restaurants and the city center within walking distance. Overall, I had a fantastic stay at My Guesthouse 109, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, stylish, and animal-friendly accommodation in Malaysia. I look forward to returning in the future!
