My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Old Town Guesthouse. The owners were always helpful and their two children a delight. Christof apologised that our room the smallest, whereas from what we have experienced this room was large, clean and well appointed with a quiet fan, quiet functioning air conditioning, plenty of hooks, hangers and shelves. We... More

Clean, cheap and friendly place to stay, probably the best price quality in Malaysia !!!!! The owners are open, helpful and easy going. They work hard to make sure every body feel good, exactly like home. The perfect place to chill out and enjoy the life. Located near the little india and the chinatown there is plenty of food option... More

The whole place is clean and cosy. Rooms are clean and big, especially the triple room. The family is friendly and helpful and lovely and they have a SUPER CUTE daughter. It is not exactly so close to the Red House or Jonker Street, but definitely not far. More importantly, it is super close to Capitol Satay which whoever loves... More

Cheap and clean is a great result already; if you add friendly, you give some extra value. But if all this happens in a "mixed zone", where you have occasional paying guests interacting with the four permanent guests who live there and manage the business as a sort of extended family, then you feel really at home. We spent four... More

It is located above a shop, there is a stairs beside the shop for us to go up. When we arrive about 5pm, the owner is still cleaning our room so we have to wait at the living room. Room & bath rooms are very clean but the blanket is not thick enough.

My girlfriend and I stayed here for three nights. I had the first good night sleep in days. The place is very clean and the owners are friendly and helpful. It's not a party place, and we weren't looking for that, if you need peace and a good rest for very affordable rates, this is your place. The location is... More

Stayed for two nights in Nov 2010. A bit difficult to reach from the central bus station on a weekend evening, but it's worth the effort. Located in close proximity to many local attraction, I was lucky enough to join the china town night market within walking distance. This hostel is run by a heartful & local family, making it...

I would definitely recommend this very clean, very quiet guesthouse in Melaka. Others have already commented on the spacious and welcoming common areas (although my family and I did not use them much, as we preferred to stay in our airconditioned rooms). In addition to the cleanliness and value of this guesthouse, I would like to mention the well-stocked bookshelves,... More

Found this little gem on Tripadvisor and glad I did. We booked a private double room with bathroom and it was spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean. In fact the whole place was kept extremely clean for the duration of our stay, 7 nights. We stayed over Christmas, as we didn't want to be travelling too much over the holidays, and... More
