“The converted heritage building holds potential with its friendly staff, offering a unique stay away from the busy city center, yet close to Penang road food; its interesting design choices add a certain charm, though some areas could use refreshing. If you appreciate colonial architecture mixed with a touch of history, this could be a fit.”
