It was ok…old hotel in the heart of Georgetown. Staff were great in efforts to make you comfortable while staying there. Beds a little hard and staying in the old town is maybe good for a night but we stayed 3 nights.

Old world charm Great location
Lynne, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The numbers of room in the hotel are small and its chic. One thing though the hotel could install an elevator for seniors' connivence of movement due to steep staircase, particularly when moving luggage up and down the staircase. All and all the hotel get my full marks.

Clean, nice place

We had a great stay. Breakfast is simple but delicious. Tharan was really helpful. Make sure you ask for a map and street guide. You won't disappoint.

10/10 Exceptional

The interior of the hotel has strong peranakan influence, making it a photo worthy place to rest and recharge. The staff are also friendly, warm and take pride in their work. However, there can be greater variety in the hotel breakfast selection
Ke Xin, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

This was a cute, rustic, safe hotel right in the middle of historic Georgetown. We ordered a ride through the hotel which never came. Everything was fine at the hotel except wifi was terrible. I spoke to the front desk and they have 4-5 wifi you can tap into but in the 36 hours we were there two of us could never get on. So if you're planning on wifi, it's not recommended here. Our room was smaller than an average small hotel we are used and it accesses the lobby/dining area. Maybe not for a long stay but otherwise everything else was fine.

乾淨，整齊，安靜。櫃檯人員親切。水和洗澡用品不夠他們會再給，感受很體貼。去夜市或是光大公車轉運站很方便。附近餐廳很多，不怕沒東西吃。如果下雨，不用怕，門口水退的很快。
