George Town Hostels

This will be my first time experience stayed in Tido Penang Hostel and really like it. The room is quite cosy and comfortable. Each person got one big locker space with key, pillow and mattress, reading light, a plug, blanket and towel. Free WiFi at all floors and in dorm room too. The hostel consist of 5 floors, 1st to 4th floor comes with 5 rooms & 5 individual bathroom & WC. The lounge on 5th floor was big and had great 2 swinging egg chairs and plenty of space over looking the view of the city. There was also a computer if you need to use one. Every floor has a iron and board. The 5th floor comes with books/magazine cupboard, table bench & high chair, soft sofa, a fridge, refillable hot/cold water filter and a small kitchenette. Free breakfast is at 5th floor overlooking the city in the morning that comes with self service toast, 4 types of spread, biscuits, coffee, tea & filtered water. Every shared bathroom is clean and comes with rain shower hot/cold pressure power and shampoo/body wash. The 8 bedded bunk room is clean and spacious and look exactly the same in the booking website. Open air parking is next to Caltex petrol station. All in all, for a price that am paying, I am happy with my stay and highly recommending and suggested this place for those who want to explore Georgetown The service overall was excellent and the facility was fabulous. The location was in a quiet area and very convenient for eating out. Highly recommend Tido.. :)

- The price is considered cheap for long stay - Bad wifi, not really able to send out messages nor watch videos. But some days are still alright - Spacious room - Air-con's remote was out of battery, wasn't able to alter the fan, swing.. Etc. - pillow is too hard and high :( It's not bad honestly, just some things should be done better. Can't say much due to the affordable price for such a long stay though

I have a very good stay for 4 days at Red Inn Court. The owners are very friendly and always giving smile everytime we meet. Check in process was so easy, even though I didn't get any towel. When check in, you'll be asked for MYR 30 for room deposit. Plus: (+) Hostel is close to Rapid Penang bus stop. From the airport you can get down at Little India (Lebuh Chulia). From this spot or Penang Muzium you can go travel around Penang. It's very close to the hostel, for approximately 5 minutes walking. (+) For you who are Muslim, this hostel is very close to Kapitan Keling Mosque. You can clearly hear adzan (prayer calling) from this hostel. (+) You can find a lot of local cuisine in the surroundings. There are so many food choices you can take to eat. You're advisable to eat Nasi Kandar, Koay Teow, Penang Laksa, Hokkien Mee, Putu Mayong, Pasembur, and Popiah. They're the best quality food in town. (+) This hostel provides you a lot of tourist brochures inside their lobby. Free to take. You can freely take Penang Tourist Map, Penang Tourism Calendar of Events, Marking Georgetown, Penang Street Food, and so many more. By reading those references, I guarantee you wouldn't be lost in Penang. (+) This hostel offers its vintage style, precisely Chinese-vintage-style. I love it. There are so many rooms inside. (+) They serve you free simple breakfast, like bread, sandwich, fruits, etc. Free flow tea and coffee. (+) They have room service, so for you who stay more than one night, don't be worried, they'll clean your room, your bed, your blanket, etc. (+) The room is equipped with fan and air conditioner. It's completely sufficient to make you feel comfortable. (+) Because of its location, you'll be easy to find halal foods nearby. It's also strategic to go everywhere: State Court, KOMTAR, State Museum, Esplanade, City Hall, market, etc. Minus: (-) You maybe find the comments that the receptionist girl are rude. But I don't think so. She's clearly given me helps. I think that she's just ”polite”, not friendly. But the owners are very friendly. You can hire the motorcycle. For you who come from Indonesia or Brunei, the Madame is able to speak Malay/Bahasa. It will help you so much. Don't be hesitant to talk to her. (-) You will not find a large locker. There is a small locker behind your bed. It's small, not too large, but for me it's enough to place your precious belongings. It can only be opened by your own key so don't worry if your possessions can be stolen or not. (-) They have enough shared bathrooms, but there is no hot water inside. By the way, the bathrooms are clean. (-) When you firstly enter your room, you maybe find that it is a little humid/moist inside. I think it is because of air conditioning system. The room is small but the air conditioner is so powerful. (-) Personally, they didn't give me a towel (even though I brought mine). But they did give towels to every guest and I didn't get it. It's like a little unfair, subjectively. My rate: 8/

The bed is very comfortable and the facilities are complete

It is not hotel, it is hostel. The amenities only soap and towel, no refrigerator at the room. Quite standard hostel but with the price of 232 RM per night for family room, I think we can find a better 3 star hotel with that price. But if you want to go to the Island Hospital. Yes this is the best nearest place to stay just really opposite of the hospital

The location is very good.The boss was very helpful. The room is like shown on the site.Clean.you get what you pay for.

關憑着cc party hotel是很難在Google map上找到它的。我也是直到它面前才知道它並不是嚴格意義上的酒店，它是為了樓下的迪廳和酒吧存在的，方便給那些泡了吧喝多了的客人準備的。得知這一切也衹能接受住這裏的吵鬧，不僅聲音上的吵鬧，房間的顏色也是極盡讓眼睛吵鬧，這都還能接受，晚上bar裏的音樂讓房間都在顫動，一直到凌晨3點，天剛亮我就能聽到喝多了的人在外面嘔吐。以上説的一切都勉強可以接受的原因是工作人員非常認真，他們都是印度人，我第一個單人房間空調製冷效果很糟，工作人員二話不説給我換了個大的房間（其實我付了兩人的錢），他怕我嫌棄空調還不行（因為空調都很老，吹的都不是冷風）還給我搬了個大電扇輔助製冷。但很奇怪的是後半夜空調冷到足以讓人生病的程度。 這家店有個最大最恐怖的硬傷，它的check-in及其不嚴肅，沒有電腦載入，完全由各種員工用私人手機拍了你的護照訊息。這是完全接受不了的，後來我讓接待我check in的女員工當我麪把我的護照照片刪除了，她刪除的很痛快，也解釋了她這樣做是為了發給老闆，check in，為了證明她還給我看了她手機裏其他護照照片，看完我倒吸一口涼氣，她手機裏幾百張各種膚色人種的護照頁面。到了晚上我和另一個男員工反映空調問題，閑聊中他也給我看了他手機裏幾千張客人的護照訊息。 這我完全不能接受，我不知道trip這個平台是怎麼審核這樣的“酒店”的。 以上，給想訂這個地方的人提個醒。
