The place is very quiet and away from busy streets yet most of tourist attractions are near by. The property is clean basic facilities like kitchen ware, coffee, tea, hot and cold drinking water etc and yeah slices of bread were always availabe on the kitchen table (i don't know wheather its for the guests or some other guests kept it for themsleves but yeah its always there and always full). Nice big lobby to read and chill. And i like the way they manage the contact less entry and exit of guests. You just get a pin code of the main door and room via email and you are good to go. Overall its a great place to be while in Penang and its quite affordable.
