Receptionist very angry and made me scared, you look for cheap place just for one night and want book in advance because you came late?
no way! they charge you more, especially if you girl and travel alone.
or you can go out at night if you dont like it.
bed is dirty.
room without fan.
smells like cats pee.
this guest house good for rats and cockroaches only, not for people.

Room tip: best tip is never stay there are. if you came for short visit, dont think about money, better paid in two times more than arrive at night and find dirty bad, room without fan, rude guy on reception who cheat you and charge more than in booking deal by any reason!!

extremely small, dirty room [smaller than a jail cell], smells of body odor, dirty mattress with no bed sheet, no air cond. no proper walls [is a large 2nd level hall subdivided into 8 cells using soft walls.
very low price, but even so not good value considering the poor facilities
right above reggae bar, music late into the night.
8 rooms on the floor, only one toilet, one shower
paid for 2 nights, ran away before the night......
good location right at T junction between Chulia and Love Lane
love lane at night has prostitutes on the street
street food right on door step

it's a chinese guesthouse and staying here, you will be calling the man for the problems that you have regularly. when i stayed for the night, my room had a problem with the electrical socket and couldn't charge my devices. the room i paid for was small and really i find it hard to find it reasonabe for 20rm. enough for a bed and a small gap for you to put your bags. the shower is a bit kore than a trickle and it's small but they upgraded it but still room for improvement. it ain't really that clean, and i really wished that they did put in a bit more of an effort. cockroaches and all. another guy that had the bigger room had his room smelling of tobacco. but they changed room for him so...but still, again, the rooms were realy bad. they've got wifi and appparently computers too. there's worst of there but don't put this on your list just yet.

BEDBUGS!

I've just realised I've got to write at least 200 words, so what else can I put? The place actually had a nice atmosphere - the staff were friendly and helpful and I met some interesting locals in the front.
But, did I mention... BEDBUGS! I got absolutely monstered... and it's not a pleasant experience. A week later, and my hands, arms and legs are still deeply marked.

My partner and I travelled to Penang towards the end of our long travels of South East Asia and chose this place in Georgetown as it seemed to be in a good location and very good value for money, when we booked last minute with booking.com. However, despite one of the staff being friendly, not all of them came across in the same manner. In fact, when we asked one what the best way to get to a temple on the mountain top was, he suggested a bus. As we waited for the bus we also enquired to a cyclo-taxi whether he could take us there as it would have been an experience. As we asked this man, the man in the hotel proceeded to shout at us for not trusting his judgement! Despite trying to reassure this man that it wasn't like that, he continued to give us the cold shoulder and act very unprofessionally. On top of this the room we had was tiny, only enough room for a bed and our bags, had a huge gap in the wall, and the bathrooms were small, dark, dirty, practically outside and I even saw a scorpion sitting on a bathroom handle as I went to reach for it. Finally,just as a warning, this hostel, as well as the many others on this street, is located in the red-light-district of Georgetown. Overall, we were left unimpressed, however I suppose for the money we paid, it is hard to complain too much. On a brighter note they do arrange certain buses for your travels and various trips and tours which is always a bonus in hostels.
