Lovely dorm with blackout curtains for privacy. Great location near Little India and Chulia Street eateries. Light breakfast of toast, fruit, and tea/coffee available all day. Nice sitting room at street level to just watch. Easy check-in, also for info.

- Take the bus from Malaca - Penang departing at 22:00 (ticket purchased at the Malentral sentral station at 8 pm 46.5 RM) - Check in Homestay Red Inn Court at 6 am (the owner is too tired, so check in early for free. (It is only at 14:00 for checkin) (35C, Red Inn Court, 35, Jalan Masjid Kapitan Keling, George Town, 10200 George Town, P.ulau Pinang, Malaysia) When checking in, 50RM will be received again after check out Check out and still receive luggage until 21:00 and use the bathroom for free. Special: no tourism tax for foreign guests and free breakfast. Attention: Common toilet but in my opinion there is no effect everything is very clean, I have asked not to clean the room so all my things are in the right position until check out. Everything is great for me

This is my third stay at this hostel. The location is very strategic, close to public transportation/Rapid Penang buses. It's close to everything, including the popular food spots in George Town. The only downside is that the hotel doesn't have an elevator. You have to climb the stairs to your room on the second floor. The staff are friendly and accommodating. Free breakfast includes bread, watermelon, and drinks. The price is very affordable. Recommended for backpackers and budget travelers.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hostel. The location is excellent — right near Little India and many major attractions, which made it super convenient to explore the city.
The room was clean and comfortable, with a soft bed, great air conditioning, and strong hot shower. I really appreciated the free towel and the breakfast in the morning — both nice touches. The Wi-Fi was fast and worked well even in the room.
There’s a cozy area on the ground floor where I could work on my laptop — a big plus for digital nomads.
However, I did find bed bugs in my bed twice during my stay. I informed the staff, and they changed the sheets and shook the mattress, but unfortunately it didn’t fully solve the issue.
Also, the door to the room slammed loudly because the lock was stiff — maybe a door closer would help.
Overall, despite the issue with the bed bugs, I had a good stay. The facilities and comfort were great, and I hope the hostel takes further steps to address the pest issue. I would still recommend it once this is resolved.

I've stayed here many times. The hotel's design is dated, but it's comfortable. There's breakfast and a relaxing area in front of the hotel. The location is strategic, close to the mosque, with plenty of halal food options, and close to Penang Street Art.

This is the second time I've stayed here because the check-in and check-out are easy and the staff are very friendly. I like that everyone has to take off their shoes, so you can walk around the room with peace of mind. This time, the beds are in a dormitory with curtain rails to separate each bed, which is very good. But the bad thing is that this time the air conditioning in the room we got was broken, making it very hot and stuffy to sleep in. We notified the accommodation to fix it, and it was fixed on the second night, but it broke again in the morning.

I think it's okay for a short stopover. But for a long stay, you might want to consider it again.
As for access to public facilities (bus/ferry terminals, places of worship, restaurants), it's quite good.

I stayed at Red Inn Court Penang at a fairly cheap price for the Georgetown, Penang area. In terms of service, I was very satisfied because the staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel location is also strategic, making it easy to access various tourist attractions and culinary around Georgetown.
The room I stayed in was clean and comfortable, although I got a room on the 3rd floor (top), which was quite tiring because I had to climb the stairs. But considering this is a budget hotel, I didn't really mind it.
One thing that is less comfortable is that this hotel is not soundproof. Because the floor is made of wood and the walls are made of plywood, the sound of people's footsteps passing by can be heard very clearly. However, overall, I felt at home here and this hotel is still a decent choice for travelers on a budget.

The hotel is on the side of the road near the Indian area. Next to it there is a food stall and mini market. The room is quite spacious and has air conditioning and a large fan. The bathroom, although outside, is also clean. It's just a bit difficult to go up because there are only stairs as access. The stairs are not too wide so those carrying suitcases have to be extra strong. Yesterday I checked out at 6 am and was still served.
