This property was very accommodating to us. I booked and stayed for 14 days. The staff were very friendly they made sure that all our requests were their top priority (examples include asking for fresh sheets, letting us use a table and chair in our room for work purposes). The internet here is fantastic and perfect for digital nomads visiting the town. The location couldn’t be more central and your value for money is amazing. The beds are very comfortable and the private rooms are very spacious. The self-check in is very easy to follow and there are always staff around to assist you when you need help or you can send them a quick message and they will be right with you. Aayu also have different hostels nearby this property. We have stayed at another the previous week and felt the same about both. Excellent choice. 10/10 💛

The apartment is located in a great location. The facilities are simple. It was super clean and so far best accommodation I had in Malaysia on a low budget. The owners were also super nice. When we had an issue they quickly responded, helped and accommodated us. The owner also stepped by to check up on us and gave us a great list of recommendations for Penang.

The host was so nice and attentive. The rooms were spacious and I felt safe. It’s right near the centre of George Town and you can walk everywhere from the place. The host also allowed me to extend my stay as I made split decision to stay longer as I was enjoying the place very much
