"This was my first time staying in a hostel, and I'm giving this place a 10/10 – I'm absolutely delighted with everything. For the price, it's an absolute steal! Resthub is right in the heart of Georgetown, with all the major attractions within walking distance. There's a shopping mall just across the road, and tons of cafes and restaurants nearby. The capsules (rooms) are incredibly clean, with comfortable mattresses and pillows. They provide towels, slippers, toothbrushes, and toothpaste. In the showers, you'll find shampoo, shower gel, soap, and even a hairdryer. All the other guests were considerate and quiet. I felt very safe thanks to the automatic door locks and key card access for the rooms."

GGuest UserThis was a temporary stopover near the airport. The environment was, to put it mildly, not great. The shower and toilet weren't separated, and as it's a Muslim household, you can't wear shoes inside, which made using the bathroom quite a hassle. Another issue was the significant noise from the road. However, it was cheap and close to the airport, and the host was very welcoming.
6,9/10
GGuest UserThe hotel's location is excellent and easy to find. My room was a bit close to the road, so it was quiet at night but a little noisy during the day. The rooftop is also a great spot for drying clothes.

RRonin tanI was very satisfied with my overall experience at this hotel! First and foremost, the most convenient aspect was the airport transfer service. The driver was punctual and friendly, making the journey from the airport to the hotel very smooth. I didn't have to worry about transportation or getting lost at all. This service is truly thoughtful, especially for first-time visitors to the city.
The hotel's hygiene was also quite impressive. Whether it was the lobby, elevators, or inside the rooms, everything was meticulously cleaned, and the air was fresh with no unpleasant odors. The bed in the room was soft and comfortable, the bathroom was clean and tidy, and all the towels and amenities were well-stocked, making for a very reassuring stay. The daily cleaning service was also excellent; the staff would proactively clean and replenish daily necessities.
The location was also fantastic. The hotel is situated in a very convenient area with many restaurants, cafes, and convenience stores nearby. You can easily find food or daily essentials within a short walk. Whether you want to try local specialties or just grab a quick meal, it's incredibly easy. Moreover, the hotel is not far from shopping malls and public transportation, making it convenient for taking a taxi or public bus.

Iisaac_isacWith the economic price of the hostel, it gets everything including shower (not too hot water), room with air cond. (not very spacious) and a simple free breakfast (only toast with jam/butter & watermelon). Good for backpackers and sth need to know in advance: no shoes allow walking up the stairs to rooms (no lift). Hopefully the cold water section of their water fountain will be fixed, so people can have free cool drinking water without buying bottles.
The staffs were nice and got recommended to try mee sotong😄

GGuest UserCleanliness: Extremely clean, cleaned promptly, even cleaner than my own home.
Facilities: The drying rack for clothes was excellent, and there's a study room.
Safety: Very safe, with 36 people in the room, there's no way anything could go wrong.
Environment: Not on a main road so it's very quiet, and the guests are also very considerate.

GGuest UserThe staff at the hotel is so friendly and welcoming. Excellent service. The room is spacious, clean and bed very comfortable. Walking distance to Gurney drive and Gurney promenade. Early morning watch sun rises over the horizon. The promenade is big and clean. People jogging.
Food court nearby. Hotel 22 is the most colourful hotel in the area and can be seen from a distance. Would recommend anyone to stay in Hotel 22 if they are on the budget.

AAnonymous UserConsidering the price, this hotel is reasonable for a short stay. It has all the basic necessities, but if you're looking for something particularly comfortable, it's just okay. The main drawback of the hotel is the soundproofing.

HherbstregenExcellent value for money! The room was spacious, and the whole place was clean and tidy. The owner is a Malaysian Chinese, so you can communicate in simple Mandarin, which is super convenient for Chinese guests who aren't fluent in English. The location is pretty good too; there's a bus stop nearby, and it's only about a 10-minute walk to the heart of Georgetown. All in all, at this price point, it's undoubtedly the king of value for money.

AAngelina CheokThe room was clean and tidy, the facilities were complete, the front desk service was very good, and the check-in was very smooth. The surrounding transportation is convenient, there are supermarkets and restaurants nearby, the price is very high, suitable for family travel and business accommodation, the overall experience is satisfactory, I will recommend friends to come again.
