I stayed here for a few nights on the suggestion of a couple met in Thailand in 2010. Make sure you have the full address written down, plus a map as this is literally a house in a residential area of Penang. Because of the location there is very little around to do or see. One eatery at the end... More

We stayed here and it was lovely. The family are very welcoming and will help you with anything, nothing is too much trouble. We had a smallroom which was built on the side of the garage, it was fine, clean and comfortable. The free breakfast was great, mainly toast, bread, fruit and cake but it was enough. You have to...

We went to penang for Xmas holidays and stayed in Baan Talay Homestay. The place is nice having 3 chalets, Clean and comfortable but the bathroom is small, difficult to bath. Also the walls are paper thin you can hear what people are talking in nearby chalet. Overall the place is very nice, close to beach, quiet, staff is good,... More

The owner is very friendly. Very strategic place. Simple neccesities such as waste paper basket should be provided in the room in order to avoid litter and I suggest that they install water house inside the loo. But overall is good enough

While we were there we chatted to the owner and his wife and they told us they were travelling for a few weeks at the end of... More

It was also fun chatting with the hosts and other guests staying at that time there. Having seen a couple of other hotels in Penang, I highly recommend... More

I can’t actually say much about this place as for rooms and other facilities. Because I never got in despite reserving a room more than 3 weeks in advance and paying the required 50 RM which is about 25% of the total amount. "To secure my booking" as it is stated in the mail correspondence. The room was rented out... More

We had a local friend go and pay the required deposit in cash the same day and received an e-mail confirmation from the owner Saracha. Upon arrival to Baan Talay Homestay at the agreed day at 7pm, we were met by... More
