Very clean and perfect location! They’d put together a personalised travel guide including places to eat, conveniences and created a two day itinerary for exploring Georgetown which was very helpful. They also let us check out 3 hours late for no extra charge!

Very clean, neat and tidy. Excellent balcony outside both rooms which would make a good place to meet other guests, and is a great place to observe village life. Very friendly and helpful host who went out of his way to make me feel welcome and looked after. Free parking. No noise from aeroplanes and far enough from the main road that it's quiet, though still close enough to easily walk to the warungs there. Highly recommended! The GPS location provided for Google Maps is spot on (though Google confused me by saying I was there when I still had a corner to drive around!).

Joey is such a lovely hostess. We felt very comfortable and welcome. She was very helpful and warm. The room (family room) has everything you need. It’s clean and comply. You can even do your laundry in the kitchen. I can highly recommend this accommodation to anyone. :)

Everything is great and the bed is so comfortable. It is by far one of the cleanest Homestay I have stayed in Penang island and the owner is super friendly. Also, the owner has very good taste on the choice of home fragrance so I really enjoy the stay. The gurney plaza is just walking distance so basically it’s very convenient.
