We booked the twin room - it is tiny, not a lot of floor space but beds are a good size. The blankets are itchy and not very warm. The walls are paper thin, you can hear everything to the sides and below you…not fun when you’re trying to sleep. Receptionist were extremely loud. The free cold water, tea coffee etc was a nice touch! Toilets and showers were clean and nice. Overall, the location is great and bathrooms were clean but the rooms weren’t great.

I don't feel safe the moment I entered the guesthouse. First, the reception staff is not friendly. I brought my shoes in my room in case they were stolen and I am glad I trusted my guts cos apparently I read a review just now here that someone's shoes were stolen. The room is so dark and dim, all three lights in my room were yellow light and I couldn't even read my book at night. The toilet bin where we have to throw in used toilet papers was always full to the brim and nobody cleared it up. If you requested guests to use this bin instead of flushing them into the toilet, shouldn't you make sure its always clear regularly? Imagine the stench... Some guests were smoking right under the non-smoking sign (a few) pasted there by the guesthouse. Yet no staff stopped them, they do have cameras and their noses to smell, right? Cos I could smell the smoke on level two corridor where my room is when they were smoking on the common area on level 1. No staffs around at 7pm even if there is, I don't think they are of much helpful when guest were allowed to smoke whenever and wherever they want.

I had an incredibly frustrating experience at this hostel. The shoe policy, which is a common practice in Malaysia and something we didn't mind, took a turn for the worse when my shoes were stolen. The receptionist's disrespectful attitude and the manager's empty promises to check the security cameras left me deeply disappointed. The place was dirty, with hair strewn all over the floor, forcing us to clean the bathroom upon arrival. It's a real shame because this colonial house has so much potential, but it's terribly mismanaged.
