Located within 2.1 km of Northam Beach and 600 metres of Wonderfood Museum, Homs Female Hostel provides rooms with air conditioning and a shared bathroom in George Town. Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and a shared lounge, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The property is non-smoking and is set 1.2 km from 1st Avenue Penang. The beds were soooo comfortable, and they were real beds not bunk beds, the roof was very high, and the sleeping room was clean, for the showers the water was hot,and they were cleaned regularily, and the socialising room looked like a phenomenal pinterest room for me, it has a variety of beautiful collected stuff, woody furniture everywhere, and beautiful peranakan tiles and design, booklets about penang and a collection of books, and a piano, a working one. I enjoyed staying in the socialising room, to the point that I started thinking that I should buy a house similar to that and settle there, The owner was so kind and helpful, and he came regularly to clean the house, and the location of the hostel was perfect close to anything you may ever need. I just loved this house, it felt like a real warm home, not a mere hostel, and I met lots of sweet girls there, what a wonderful experience! I wish there were more only females hostels like this one in every city.

Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and a shared lounge, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The property is non-smoking and is situated 1.1 km from 1st Avenue Penang. It is a very nice aesthetic place to stay as a solo traveller, most importantly, very cool place to connect with people around the world, mostly of your age group. The staff member was kind enough to take my bag up the stairs in front of my bed. There is a kitchen at the rooftop, it gives really coay vibes. I loved it! Every food market is close to this place, I walked two minutes straight from the hotel and ended up on a falafel began wrap cafe at 1 am. The other time, I went to a place called little india, the food was really good there as well.
